Cafe silk and black lace corset fishtail wedding dress for Jessica

Manifesting... 💞
This is what happened back in November at the South East Regional award ceremony for The Wedding Industry Awards. I won best in my category for "best wedding dressmaker".
🤞🤞🤞 And I`m just hoping it happens again on Wednesday night when I`m in Liverpool for the National ceremony!
But either way I`m a winner already both in the south east and every time I see a bride`s smile in her finished bespoke dress. 🥰🥰🥰

The Wedding Industry Award (@twia_official) Nationals are next week 🏆️ I`m up for Independent Dressmaker/Designer, having won the regionals last month.
I`m one of four finalists in my category, which also includes the talents of @mylittleweddingshop, @caroline.chamberlainbridal and @lisa.lyons.bridal. Good to luck to everyone!

I`m so happy Ella chose me to elevate her already lovely @catherine__deane bridal skirt from @the_little_bridal_boutique.
For this subtle dip dye, I used a wet dye technique, instead of my usual spray approach. The two colours blended so beautifully together 💛🧡 I think the skirt looks like the petals of a flower, but I can`t put my finger on which one.

I loved adding a creamy pale yellow and sorbet orange dip dye to this beautiful silk skirt, by @catherine__deane (via @the_little_bridal_boutique).
Aren`t these colours so lovely?
I`ll be posting the beautiful photos the bride sent me of this wedding dress in action soon!

All these lovely words are from my Google reviews. I received some of the most gorgeous feedback in 2025, and every one made me feel so warm inside 🥰
If we worked together last year, then I`d love to hear what you thought of the process and the outcome. You can find my Google Business page just by googling `Felicity Westmacott`.
Make a seamstress happy and a leave me a little review 💬

2026 is going to be the most whimsical year yet ✨
To be clear, this isn`t me. But I did make the dress, and I did insist on the lovely Lauren twirling in it for me. She`s a brilliant twirler, I think we can all agree 💃🏻
(This 16th century costume dress is now available sale just get in touch for details 🤫)

woozelsmudgeHi Nicole, Thanks for your comment. I only ever show photos of past clients with explicit permission, which was obtained before publishing these. At any time my client can be in touch if she would like the images taken down, but perhaps she prefers to celebrate her beautiful dress and support my business in these difficult times, even if the marriage has now ended.
