Once upon a time I ran my business from a beautiful bridal shop in London – near Mayfair and just around the corner from Selfridges on New Quebec Street. We created stunning bridal gowns that our clients adored, dressed a number of well-known celebrities and regularly featured in all the best magazines. We were incredibly busy.
In 2007 with the arrival of my daughter Caitlin I took a break from the shop but I knew I would return to my passion of making beautiful wedding dresses – once my children were old enough. I decided that I didn’t want to make hundreds of wedding dresses but perfect dresses for a few clients. I wanted to have a better work-life balance also. I wanted to make the experience of having a wedding dress created just for you to feel as enjoyable, exciting and uplifting as the wedding itself and be stress-free. I want every bride-to-be to feel at home during each consultation and fitting. So that’s where I’ve built my new studio: in my newly renovated home in London. It’s here that we’ll meet and plan your perfect wedding dress in peace. You see me for every fabulous step of the way!
Not being in a central London retail premises allows me to offer all the benefits of having a couture gown made, but at considerably lower prices then others in my field and in the private surroundings of my lovely showroom. The gowns I do range between £3,000 and £8,000 for what would normally be £5,000 to £15,000 in a central London retail store!
I passionately believe that your wedding dress should be a masterpiece that stands the test of time and looks as beautiful in 30 years as it did on your wedding day. This is the once time in your lifetime for most to wear a couture dress and it most definitely should be bespoke and totally handmade and designed just for you. Its is a process we go through together and I am with you every step of the way. Often suggesting styling accessories and all the important finishing touches for your big day.
