Bustled or unbustled... which do you prefer? ✨

This gown’s dramatic ruffled skirt creates two completely different looks. Unbustled, it’s all about the full, flowing train. Bustled, the details of the skirt take centre stage and make it so much easier to move, mingle and dance the night away.

I’m team “both” — the ceremony look and the reception look! 🤍

Which version gets your vote? 👇

Another of our studio collaborations last season where we took in the back of the gown and added a stunning bustle for one of our brides 🤍

Every bride deserves to feel completely confident in her gown.

Alterations aren’t just about making a dress smaller or shorter—they’re about creating a fit that allows you to move comfortably, feel supported, and enjoy every moment of your wedding day.

If your gown is ordered and your wedding is on the horizon, now is a great time to secure your alterations appointment.

Feeling so grateful for the moments of calm, meaningful work, beautiful spaces, and the people who trust me with their special pieces.

What’s something you’re grateful for today? ✨

29/05/2026

One week in the studio and honestly… I wasn’t prepared for how busy it would be already 🥹

Thank you to every person who has booked, shared my page, recommended me, trusted me with your garments, or simply stopped by to say hi. It’s been a week full of fittings, hems, ball gowns, sewing late into the evening, and learning as I go — and I’m so grateful for it all.

I’ve got so many exciting things planned for this space and it already feels very special ✨

21/05/2026

What started as bridal alterations from home has now grown into a dedicated studio space focused on bridal and formalwear alterations — designed to give clients a calm, private and personalised experience.

Thank you to everyone who has supported, encouraged and followed along behind the scenes so far. I’m so excited for this next chapter and to welcome clients into the new space.
