It's about time Amy made it onto the grid! ✨ Amy It's about time Amy made it onto the grid! ✨

Amy came to me for alterations on her gorgeous Halfpenny London wedding dress, and what a transformation it was.

I downsized the skirt around 10 inches, taking in through the side seams and centre back. The bodice also needed significant alterations to achieve the perfect fit, and we completely restyled the back, replacing the tie fastening with a button closure to provide more support, structure and security. There may also have been some rather ingenious bust taping involved to achieve exactly the right level of support.

As if that wasn't enough, Amy also commissioned me to create the most incredible bespoke cape. Sparkling, dramatic and completely worthy of its own moment in the spotlight.

Receiving these photographs brought the biggest smile to my face. After months of fittings, pinning, problem-solving and perfecting every detail, seeing it all come together so beautifully is always such a special moment.

Thank you for trusting me with your dress and your vision, Amy 🤍

A little bit of magic behind the scenes - creating A little bit of magic behind the scenes - creating Olivia's dress ✨️

I think you'll often hear that a bespoke wedding dress starts with a sketch, but that’s not the case for me as a designer.

It starts with a feeling. A vision. Yours and mine.

Olivia’s vision was oversized sleeves, a cowl back and a cape instead of a veil.

With a little creative direction, I brought all of Olivia’s ideas together (and more) to create her dream dress.

The wow factor was the cape, inspired by the colours of spring and the sentimental floral artwork from her stationery. A hint of subtle colour turned into a bold statement piece that was completely unique. It was described as “a work of art” on the wedding day.

Olivia’s dress not only encompassed all of her hopes and dreams, it also embodies everything I’m about as a designer.

A timeless silhouette. Hints of colour. Floral elements. Personality. A deeper meaning behind what I create. And something completely unique to the bride wearing it.

Limited spaces available throughout 2027.

A Bespoke wedding dress starts with you. Your ide A Bespoke wedding dress starts with you.

Your ideas, your story, how you want to feel when you step into your dress on your wedding day.

Bespoke is about more than measurements and fabric.

It’s about creating something that feels instinctively right. Something that doesn’t need adjusting to suit you, because it was designed with you at the centre from the very beginning.

Through sketching, draping, and fittings, the gown evolves slowly. Each decision made with care, each detail considered, until it feels like it was always yours.

If you are drawn to a wedding dress that is created with intention, this is where bespoke begins.

I can't wait to bring them to life for you ✨️

It has always felt like my purpose to design and c It has always felt like my purpose to design and create wedding dresses.

Designing beautiful, meaningful gowns for people at one of the most emotional moments of their lives is what I was meant to do.

I believe a wedding dress should feel like it was always yours, shaped around who you are, not altered or forced into place.

For me, the magic is in the journey. The sketching, the draping, the fittings, and the quiet conversations along the way.

I take on a limited number of bespoke brides each year so every gown is created with time, care, and intention.

If you’re drawn to couture, ethereal, and authentic design, I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. I would love to create something truly personal with you.
