What is a toile? Basically a mock-up garment! Have a look at the video below to see a clients toile before his fitting on Friday. I'll check back in with a post-fitting to show how we pin, draw & draw all over it!

Starting the 20th July I'm changing my working days to align with childcare. This is only until September when I'll be available all week as Mini-Vinnie is starting school! 📚🎓🍎🚌🎒✏️

Its 10pm & something happened today which is playing on my mind...

There is no body whatever the age, gender, size who can't wear EXACTLY what they want on their wedding day. This is the mountain I'll die on for my newly weds & I'm here to fight your corner.

You deserve to feel incredible for your wedding, wearing whatever brings you the most joy. If that is something I can create, so much the better!

Traditions & the expectations of others can often hold us back from being honest about what we want... if you have that wobble, I've got your back 🥰



* Please excuse the mess. We're halfway through having a kitchen fitted so its all a little squashed here!

Time for me to take a little break... I'm having 2 weeks off with my boy & hopefully a little rest & relaxation will help me get my sew-jo back!

Sew much love to you all 🪡🧵✂️💙

IT OPENS!!!

Finally we managed to break open some windows which in a studio with machinery & industrial iron is essential! Just in time for the rain 🌧

One of them is still completely painted shut but as Meatloaf said "2 out of 3 ain't bad"

It's time to start thinking about 2027... never too early to get booked in!

As ever, all design consultations are no obligation & completely free so if you have a wedding, event or even just an idea, feel free to get in touch 🪡✂️

For all my past clients, I'd be thrilled if you can leave me a review on either Facebook or Google to help me grow, learn & beam with joy!

To find on Facebook: Search 'Allana Costume' & choose the top tab that says 'Reviews' (you may need to click 'more')
To find on Google: Search 'Allana Costume' in Google & then click 'Write a review' on the right hand tab

Leaving a review is the quickest & easiest way to support a small business, it helps me know what I'd doing right (or wrong) & it helps other clients find & trust me for their future projects!
