The dress needed to have a vintage, showgirl feel and be really sexy but still realistic as a bridal dress, not many people actually get married in a leotard and feathers! The wiggle skirt with a boned bodice hit all these marks showing off our lovely model, Vanessa?s curves and cinching her waist. I added a teal net petticoat that would show when the high/low hem moved and delicate gold lace detail with Swarovski crystals for showgirl glamour!

"Felicity, you made my dreams come true. No one expected such a show stopper of a dress. It was the centrepiece to our festival wedding colour palette. More compliments than I can cope with and they`re still pouring in!"â

Jennifer is such a gorgeous and vibrant person, it was such a treat to elevate her wedding dress to match her outdoor festival wedding in Stockport. Jennifer chose a variation of my phoenix dip dye colourway, using yellow, orange, red, pink and purple, with a final hint of royal blue. There`s a reason this combination is so popular among brides - it`s stunning!â

And I don`t think she could have chosen more perfect shoes if she`d triedâ

I designed the Celeste wedding dress to feel dreamy, like a goddess in disguise in the 1930s ⨠The sparkling underdress is perfect for an evening party while the flowing overdress transforms the look for a more ethereal vibe.
Made from pale ivory soft tulle that cascades in two layers from the shoulders, nipped in at the waist by a grosgrain ribbon belt.â The back is probably one of my favourite features: a decadent layered necklace glistening with jewels.

âď¸The Celeste Dressđâ
â
Layers of silver satin, sequins and flowing soft tulle, falling in gentle pleats,â
Timeless and modern, taking inspiration from the art deco aesthetic,â
A daring plunge neckline and low, sweeping back,â
Adorned with a dramatic necklace of diamante, pearls and Swarovski crystals.â
â
The Celeste dress is for a bride who embodies both elegance and indulgence. Curved lines, light fabric and light-catching beads will transform you into a moonbeam, glimmering during the day and all through the night.â

Just leaving this here...
It`s a passage from a book of interviews with Germans who lived through World War II.
I often describe what I do as Dress Alchemy. But have you ever wondered what I mean when I say that? You might even be a dress alchemist yourself...
