I create bespoke wedding dresses, designed and handcrafted to perfectly reflect your unique style and make your special day truly unforgettable.

Bridesmaids

I design and tailor bespoke bridesmaids’ dresses, ensuring each piece complements your wedding theme while making your bridal party feel elegant and confident.

Wedding Dresses

I create bespoke men’s waistcoats, ties, and handkerchiefs, personalised in colours to match the bride or bridesmaids, ensuring a stylish, coordinated look for your special day.

Consultation Fee for Commissions

A quality consultation is the most important part of the process to enable me to truly understand what we are trying to achieve.

As this part of the process takes time in order to achieve quality results, my standard fee for consultation is £50. However, this fee will be waived from the final invoice of all completed works.

Thank you for your understanding.

I was looking for a seamstress last year for help with a dress I wanted to wear on my wedding day, Edith was so kind and warm when I first met her, she instantly made me feel at ease. I showed her some inspiration photos and ideas of what I wanted to create with my dress and she provided me with all the information I needed to make a decision on what the final design would be. I then met with Edith again in a couple of months to finalise on material decisions and for fitting, when I tried on my finished dress I was absolutely over the moon with it, it was everything I wanted and more. Edith went above and beyond to make sure my dress was completed within our agreed time frame, even though she was recovering from an operation. Edith is incredibly talented and if I ever need a seamstress in the future I won’t hesitate to go back. Thankyou again.
