Aimee Liz Designs

Aimee Liz Designs Dressmaking, alterations and stockist of NI designer millinery for hire. This saves both costs and time in the final fitting.

4) Final fitting!

Aimee graduated from Manchester Metropolitan University through Belfast Metropolitan College in 2015 with a Bachelor of Science in Fashion Management. First, Second and Final year modules included the study of; Textiles, Design Research & Conceptualisation, Pattern Development, Garment Construction, Quality Management and Business and Marketing Management. Aimee spent an optional placement year wo

rking within the fashion industry in Belfast, gaining experience and developing skills in made-to-measure Atelier services, alternative methods of design and dyeing techniques, photoshoots, fashion shows, sales, web design and business management. Along side this she worked part-time in DV8 in the city centre in order to gain knowledge in the retail side of the industry also. In 2016 Aimee began to work toward her dream of opening her own design company and continues to work toward its growth and development. Aimee Liz Designs is now operating part time from Aimee's home, where she offers a full design service for made-to-measure garments, offering both a fabric sourcing service and alterations along-side. How we work:

ALD strive to create your ideal garment and work along-side our customers in 3-4 consultations from design to final fitting:

1) To discuss design and fabrics. In this meeting we co-design a dream garment that flatters the customers figure and colouring. If fabric has been supplied by the customer then this appointment time would be used for measuring also.

2) If the fabrics have been sources in-house then we have a meeting to choose from the sourced samples of fabric. Measurements will also be taken at this appointment and the deposit is to be paid.

3) Toile fitting. At ALD we want to make sure that the garment is as perfect as can be so we will create a mock-garment for fitting before using the chosen fabrics. This appointment is when you see your dream garment completed, there will always be a few final little checks to make sure it is fitting and sitting perfectly and then it's all yours! The next time that you see it will be to collect or its delivery for your special occasion!

U P D A T E
Hey hey friends!
I am sorry I have been off the radar for while... I've been off becoming a mum!
Our beautiful girl Raya was born back in January, and since then time has flown 😍
I decided that my time in was over, mum life was the new goal. So a few months back we packed up and moved out. πŸ˜” I had the intention of maybe doing a little work from home after maternity, however the absence didn't make the heart grow fonder. I decided that the sewing life was over completely, other than a few lockdown postponed-wedding outfits.

Thank you all so much for all the custom and support over the last couple of years. I've loved meeting you all, and making and fixing items for your special occasions, and maybe some day I'll whip out the sewing skills again, but for now Aimee Liz Designs is closed indefinitely. πŸ˜”

However... Over lockdown we found a new passion, a new business idea just kind-of came to us... Cakes in jars! 🍰
Individually portioned, recyclable and sealed (meaning they're portable and can be resealed if you wanna leave some for later!)

I'd really appreciate if you guys would check out The Cake Jar Co. and give us a follow!🍰

We bake on Thursdays for Friday collections but are available for events and large orders, just hit us up in the DMs to enquire or order! ❀️

Good afternoon all! It is announcement time, bombshell time perhaps...
Unfortunately it's time that I let you all know that I have decided to give up my fab studio space in Made in Mourne and will be spending the remainder of my maternity leave focusing solely on Raya. From the end of the summer I will be deciding on what form this little business will take in future so please do stay tuned.
Thank you so so much to all of our wonderful customers over the last 2 years and of course to Jenna and the team at MADE in Mourne. My time there has been so beneficial for many many reasons. From a business stance, the exposure, footfall and affordable space has been priceless but also from a personal stance, the friendships, inspiration and encouragement are some that I hope stay for life.

I have a few fixed assets that I will be looking to sell from the space;
-Fitted cabinets: Pale grey with 2 tall cupboards, one side long hanging, the other concealed, 5 shelved and one 2 door cupboard on top, 3 under-desk drawers and 1 under-desk cupboard with a cool grey wood-look worktop.
-5 Black velvet mannequin display heads
-Changing screen
-Freestanding full length Mirror. SOLD
-Ironing Board.
-Range of headpieces TBC
Some other items and pictures will be advertised in future, still lots to sort! But PM for deets.

Thanks,
Aimee x

Check out these gorgeous girls! Emma got married back in November and came to us with the most stunning colour palette and an amazing grey velvet skirt, wanting a top made to tie it all together. We opted for a matte look to allow full focus on the gorgeous velvet shine. The bodice is a fully lined, boat neckline in a burgundy crepe with a full sleeve (wrist length). Access is via an open ended zip in the centre-back edged with matching covered buttons. We also altered the skirts and attached the beaded tie belt.

The little lady at the end is a real wee cutie. Abbie was the best flower girl in her ALD soft tulle skirt in dove grey with a grey velvet waistband and back tie ribbon to match the 'Maids. Even teddy got a skirt to match! ❀️🐻

Good afternoon all! πŸ€—
This wee post is just to say that our books are now CLOSED. 🚫
At the beginning of December I plan to take off for maternity leave and have lots of work to do before then. Unless previously arranged I will not be taking on any alterations or dress orders and will be catching up over the next 3 weeks on everything in studio, meaning all items will be ready to collect on Dec 7th at the latest. I will be in touch in the interim directly anyway for earlier pieces.πŸ‘—
Thank you all for your continued support over the last 2 years in business and your patience over the last couple of weeks with my awful baby-brain (yes, apparently it's real and very frustrating!)πŸ₯΄

We'll see next year what ALDs new little mascot allows in terms of work schedule but keep an eye here and on insta for any orders that will be making their debuts within the next week or 2! And while I'm off there are still our beautiful NI designer headpieces available to hire from the studio in MIM (atleast that's the plan for now!)

Thank you all,

Good evening all! πŸ€—
Just an update for those enquiring about dressmaking/alteration services over the next few months. πŸ‘—

The studio will be closed from the beginning of December for a few months and within this time only headpieces and accessories will be available to rent. No alterations or dressmaking will take place after 1st December and re-opening will be announced later in 2020. In the meantime business continues as normal but we have limited availability for dress orders before December, so if you have a special event coming up before then please enquire ASAP. Some orders may be considered for 2020 but will need to be started urgently and collected before December. Please also note that November is a busy alteration time for Christmas outfits so check in early to avoid disappointment!πŸŽ…

Sorry for any inconvenience but many many thanks to all of our new and loyal customers over the last 2 years (nearly! 😍) πŸ€—
