Sale Rail - Photoshoot Dresses for sale
From time to time I collaborate on styled shoots with other wedding professionals designing and making dresses as a one off just for the occasion. These photoshoot dresses can be purchased direct from me and are usually priced at half or less than what it might cost to have the same design made as a bespoke commission. They have all been ‘worn once’ for the photoshoot but they are usually perfect or almost perfect. Any imperfections will be described.
You are welcome to visit to try on the dresses before purchasing, or to buy online. Always check your measurements before buying as although I will accept returns for size it’s better to avoid that disappointment if we can! I describe what basic size alterations might be possible in each listing and I am also happy to advise if you have any questions.
I will accept returns within 14 days of delivery, as long as the garment is returned in the same manner and condition is was received. Full terms and conditions for purchase will be sent to anyone buying before completion of a sale.
You can also commission a new copy of any of these designs, made bespoke for you in your size and with any style changes to make ti truly unique for your wedding day.

"Felicity was amazing to work with. I can`t express into words how much I loved my overskirt. We had a unique theme and I knew exactly what I wanted but not how to make it work. She understood the look and colour theme I wanted and absolutely nailed it. From start to finish Felicity was supportive and informative on what would work best to make my vision come to life. Her knowledge and quality of work shines through her pieces. I would absolutely recommend her to everyone!"
It fills me with so much joy to read such kind words and know that I was a small part of making such a special day happen.
Bride Ashley chose to have the colours of her dip dye overskirt arranged in vertical stripes rather then my usual horizontal. I think the effect is really striking, where every angle of the skirt reveals a different blend of colours. And it match her hair!

"Dearest Fliss, I`m not sure I have the adequate words to express how thankful I am, or how talented and wonderful I think you are, but I`ll give it a go. My hopes and dreams for my dress were actualised by your amazing hands. My dress was so beautiful and different - just what I wanted. You made me shine on our special day."
I made this dress over 10 years ago now but it still makes me feel emotional reading this, so many years after.
As part of making Claire`s gorgeous blue and white 1800s-inspired wedding dress was creating this bespoke corset from scratch. The dress was made with an 18th century `flat-fronted` boned bodice, and once we fitted it, I played with shape, flow and texture to create this completely unique and opulent peplum corset, featuring beads, pearls, sequins, cord and lace.
I was lucky enough to become friends with Claire during the making process of her dress and as a result she invited to her wedding day. I was 9 months at the time and my waters broke at her wedding breakfast. My son was born 3 days later!
If you are looking for something beautiful and different for your special day, drop me a message - I would love to make your bridal dreams a reality.
The main inspiration for this wedding dress was this blue and white gown, worn by Emily Blunt for Vanity Fair. Claire, the bride, added photos of the infamous Mr Pearl`s beautifully ornate corsets to her mood board as well.
As a bride, talking in images is one of the easiest ways for me to understand your vision and aesthetic. If someone says to me `dreamy` or `classic`, that can mean very different things to different people. But this gorgeous reference photo of a Dior gown gave me everything I needed to know to start sketching.
What images are on your dream wedding mood board right now?

Along with Melissa`s alterations, I also added this pretty lace applique to the neckline, bodice and skirt of her wedding dress. It`s those kinds of details that make a bride`s wedding dress so uniquely hers.

This wedding dress is for a bohemian bride; a bride who wants to take inspiration from nature for their whole ceremony - from the venue, to the biodegradable invitations, to the beautiful embroidered tulle, with flowers and leaves springing from the waist and growing organically along the body.
This is for a bride who loves meadow flowers, like ox-eye daisies and poppies. For a bride who enjoys being barefoot in the grass, exploring a forest, and who’s favourite season is probably spring. A woodland goddess 🌿
This dress is currently part of my sample sale, which you can find on my Etsy (link in bio). So if you`re a UK size 12-14 and looking for woodland-themed whimsy for your wedding, this might be the dress for you.

Just me escaping the world for a bit to go and live in the woods and hang out with the birds.
I`ll be back later...(maybe) 🌿
