The Week That Was ...... Mainly Glitter and Bows

The  most perfect shoes to go with our dresses we have ever seen ..... and their name is Anna at Kurt Geiger. Anything that sparkles and we're happy!
And we made a bow clutch bag to match which will be coming to the shop very soon!

A whole layered cake of petticoats went to new owners ...............
......... along with a little black dress to Canada for a 'CHANEL' themed hen party!

We made matching accessories to this gorgeous Sheena Holland hair band for a bride.
A very tiny little girls first bridesmaids dress in green and pink ................
...... and another little girl named Meg became my Muse for childrenswear, she helped me design her dress which ended up  looking super amazing!
The back of a very special wedding dress.

Working out if you can hold a bouquet and glitter clutch bag at the same time walking down the aisle. We thought YES!
Anna did her first hen party workshop making ..................

....... These gorgeous silk garlands for a wedding. Now these are what you call pretty and they aren't bunting!

The Week That Was ..........


A very exciting pile of fabrics from Millie Moon


The tulle underskirt for a brides incredibly twirly dress.

More Millie Moon fabrics coming up as a dress soon.

Another brides pink and ivory lace, this dress is drop dead Hollywood starlet looking, I can't wait to share this!
Liberty Claire-Aude Tana lawn bridesmaids dress, we love working in Liberty prints.  

And an effortlessly chic silver silk. This is for a mother of the bride and the look is bang on vintage Dior, beautifully elegant and sassy. No ruffles or 'matchy matchy' typical MOB nonsense.

The Week That Was


This week we have cut and made and said goodbye to a few dresses for various exciting occasions. The leopard print is my favourite of the week complete with it's bright flashy underskirt. I really can't wait to share the story of this dress!

 The underskirt to go with, full of ruffles!



The Liberty Claire-Aude Tana Lawn fabric we are making the prettiest bridesmaids dresses from. You should see what's going with them below in the form of glitter!


The delicate vintage lace of a secret dress that has the ultimate twirl factor of a dress we have ever made.


A sample bow tie for a wedding full of bow ties. Every guest has been asked to wear one and I love this idea!


Anna jet-setted over to Barcelona for a beautiful Art Nouveau garden wedding of friends. Check out her new blue dress made in a vintage scarf print.


 And ........ THE GLITTER. It's coming very soon and boy is it going to be special. Sorry it's not a dress!

That was the week that was. I also went for a great Sunday walk in Langport Somerset and I have quite an exciting pink bundle arriving soon that is the best treat ever. Watch this space, next week is going to be soooo exciting!

The Week That Was ...

We'll be sharing each week in pictures as 'The Week that Was' so you can catch a glimpse of what we're up to. Here is last week.


Gorgeous green floral Tanya Whelan cotton for cutting.

A very special yellow dress order.

It was sunny here for a while last week.
A baby pink underskirt for a bride who will now be wed!

The 'Fat Willy's' surf vest Wing bought me from his trip to Falmouth. I love this neon logo so much and will be wearing this to death. (wish they had a more enticing website though!) 

The amazing box of trinkets sent to me as a thank you from What Katy Did next. The green glitter peg magnets are the perfect addition to the studio.
Anna and Laura outside the Goldbrick House tweet up hosted by the Little Wedding Helper last week. It was a fabulous evening of meeting some lovely people.
