You may want a subtle one layer ruffle or you may go mad and have all six layers of colours/? If you have any questions please ask away, I always love to hear from you x

P.S if you really can't sew you can also buy them in the shop too :)

The Black lace Prom Dress

Here is the customer photo from one of my all time favourite dresses the black lace cocktail dress. The lace was an amazing find and had the most gorgeous vintage texture to it with hand corded detailing. 

I love the way she has styled her whole look complete with Vivienne Westwood Melissa shoes, Audrey bun and pearl earrings. Super gorgeous and glam and again I am really amazed by the styling talents of school leavers to look so incredibly chic.This was a custom order with added lace to our classic little black silk cocktail dress. 

The prom photos

Just as I published the last post I received the official prom photos and not only did I squeal with excitement of just how AMAZING our prom girl looks at the prom but her gentleman friend looks suitably gorgeous too in his vintage tuxedo.
Adorable and incredibly beautiful, with the cutest Alice in Wonderland Mary Janes and cream tights. Just stunning and this is exactly why I love to make dresses, because it's my job to be rewarded with lovely looking pictures like these.  

Check out the beautiful vintage Morris Minor they used to transport them which matches the dress perfectly.   (ignore the seethingly jealous girls in background) :) x

Magenta Pink

Recently made again in a gorgeously vibrant magenta pink silk edged in black satin with a velvet bow belt at the waist and a corseted cinched waist with internal stays for a vintage fifties fit.

 We have just started to add the additional boning in our cinch waistband with a great vintage tip of adding a grosgrain ribbon belt inside which cinches the waist, helps with the fit of the dress, fastening the zipper and (acccording to Victoria Beckham and many a vintage lady) improves your posture.

Something Blue 50s Wedding Dress

 Another version of our classic 50s prom dress in the palest blush blue tulle. This dress has an extra full skirt inspired by the Audrey Hepburn classics and a finely pleated, hand stitched bodice lined silk.

I have been asked a few times for this pale blue recently and it's a great alternative to the ivory and white without loosing the bridal feel. It's a great tone if you're more porcelain skinned as it doesn't wash you out so much and also works beautifully in pinks and greens. Available made to order here.
