Alice commissioned bespoke bridesmaids dresses surrey for her grown up bridesmaids, in gorgeous purple silk dupion. The simple strapless dresses have fitted and boned bodices, cut princess line with floor length a-line skirts. I gave them have silver silk-satin sashes that loop rather than tie at the back, finished with with diamante detailing.
I was lucky enough to be making a lot of things for Alice’s wedding day. Not just the two adult bridesmaids, but also Alice’s wedding dress and flower girl dresses for the little ones too! You can see more about those dresses through the links.
I also made silver silk ties and hankies for her groomsmen. You can see more details of that commission here.
The sash ends of both dresses were beaded with Swarovski crystal diamante stones to echo the beading on Alice’s wedding dress. I sewed each sparkle on by hand for a secure finish.
The two dresses hanging up ready to be collected, along with Alice’s wedding dress. They have all been steamed and stuffed with tissue paper to make them crease free and easy to travel.

I also love these purple silk dresses I made for another set of bridesmaids. This time in a 1950’s shape, though butterflies were once more part of the design aesthetic.
I have made lots of bespoke bridesmaid dresses for my clients over the years. To see more examples head over to my portfolio page. I have having pricing guidance and an FAQ page about the bespoke dressmaking process. And of course you are always welcome to be in touch to ask any questions or to make an appointment to discuss having custom dresses made for your own bridal party. Perhaps another set of purple dresses still lies ahead of me!
