Dresses By Jacqui - Bridal & Evening Wear

My business started out as a hobby, sewing for myself, family and friends since I was a child and has grown to a thriving business. I specialize in custom-made bridal and special occasion wear. The main focus of my business! I can outfit your entire wedding party, from the all-important wedding gown to attendants and 'mother-of-the-bride' outfits, and even waistcoats and cravats for the gentlemen

in the party. For any other special event, I can make you the outfit of your dreams, not the one you bought in a shop which is 'close enough'. You can come to me with a commercial pattern and ready-bought fabric, or with pictures from a magazine, or your own sketches, or nothing more than the ideas in your head. Alterations

A very important part of my business - if not very glamorous...
From the hem on a pair of trousers, to remaking a ball gown. Some things are possible, others are not. I'm happy to see the garment, advise you on the feasibility of an alteration, and discuss the options available to you. Resources

I have a large selection of commercial patterns and fabric swatches for your perusal. You can view a selected gallery of my previous work online, and I have a more extensive selection of printed photos at my sewing studio. If you have any questions, or to make an appointment, please don't hesitate to contact me.
