Danielle wanted a pretty and elegant dress with applique lace and subtle sequin sparkles on a nude base. We were aiming for something lightweight, feminine and figure-hugging. So I designed a dress that was a little soft romantic, a little boho and a little sexy, accentuating Danielleâs hourglass figure. This bespoke nude lace wedding dress...

One of the pleasures of having my own shop, is I also get some alone time.
If you have a busy life you know the rare joy of getting to hang out with just yourself sometimes.
Which isn`t to say I don`t love welcoming brides into my shop - I absolutely do.
But I don`t think I could ever have a colleague in the shop with me (not full time, anyway).
Not after working for myself for 25 years, and being used to how I like to to do things.
Isn`t that the difference between being alone and lonely. I am alone, but very much not lonely.
Hands up all my introverts! đđť
"I am so grateful for your contribution to my dress. Everybody loved it."â

This custom dip dye overskirt was the perfect pop of colour for Tanja`s wedding dress. â And with autumn well and truly here, I wanted to celebrate those beautiful colours.â
â
Her floor length skirt included:â
đa graduated hi-low hem to match the dress underneathâ
đ§Ątwo layers of soft tulleâ
đŠˇhand dyed with four vibrant colours; yellow, orange, red and burgundyâ
â¤ď¸snaps along the waist for easy attachment and removal to the wedding dressâ
â
My bespoke ombre overskirts have so many other customisation options as well. From extra layers of tulle or lining fabric, to finishing off the waistband with ribbon or a pretty beaded belt. And I have over 30 colours to choose from, so there are almost limitless options.â

l`ve always wanted to see inside this chapel, ever since I was a child. So getting to be on set for this gothic romance wedding shoot and seeing my dress amongst the old stonework was a dream come true đ¤

If you`re a Halloween girly, then this achingly romantic, yet slightly spooky wedding dress is meant for you.â
â
Asylum Chapel is a venue that`s been haunting me for the past 25 years. So when I finally had the opportunity to create a wedding dress that would fit perfectly in the crumbling stone chapel, I knew I had to make something that felt both ethereal and gothic. Like a vintage romance novel, where the lovers are doomed in some desperately heart-aching way.â
â
There`s something to be said about doing a gothic Halloween wedding in white. A black wedding dress is stunning, but there`s something really exciting about turning that back on its head and going for white instead, whilst still embodying that alt vibe.â
â
Who (fictional or otherwise) can you imagine wearing this wedding dress?â

I love autumn đđ
And this custom dip dye wedding skirt feels perfect for the changing of the seasons. All those beautiful colours of falling leaves, from bright yellow, through to deep burgundy.
As always, nature provides such a perfect source of inspiration đ
If you`re looking to capture the colours you love on your wedding day, my custom dip dye skirts are such a lovely touch. You can choose up to five shades, and there are a whole bunch of customisation options. Just check out my shop (link in bio).
For this elegant, forest green wedding dress, I spent a lot of hours working on the main focus of the dress; the beaded collar.
Sometimes doing things over and over again can be strangely peaceful, and sometimes it can be utterly mind-numbing. And sometimes it`s a bit of column A and a bit of column B! đ
The rest of the dress was kept classic and simple, so this design element would really shine (literally)! I used a whole range of beads in peacock colours - blood red, deep garnet, teal, vibrant purple and sparkling gold. I played with design ideas, taking inspiration from the art deco era, using a lot of symmetry and geometry.
It`s always a relief when I`m finally finished with a project like this, to be able to step back and see the result and think "ah, that was completely worth it." đ
If you want to see what this dress looked like on the day of the wedding, have a look at my previous post đż
