As demonstrated by bridal hairstylist extraordinaire @chris_georgie_ , the curve of your veil comb should always match the curve of your head 👰♀️

We immediately say no to:
▪️Bridal alterations for brides who don’t love their dress. If you don’t like the style of your gown, that is unlikely to change after alterations. This is why it’s so important to choose the dress YOU want and not the one your friends/family like the most.
▪️Hemming a wedding dress for a bride who has not yet found her perfect wedding shoes. Heel height is vital when deciding what length to hem your dress at.
▪️Copying another designer’s work. It’s fine to be inspired by existing designs but we won’t outright copy another designer.
▪️Vintage wedding dress redesigns that are impossible. When redesigning a vintage gown we have a limited amount of fabric to work with. Sadly we can’t turn a stiff rigid gown into a slinky body con dress!
▪️Alterations for brides who arrive to their appointment wearing full glam (eg fake tan & makeup), which can (and will!) transfer onto the gown.
▪️Working on a sample or a preloved gown that has not been drycleaned first. Many gowns shrink during cleaning so it’s very important to clean the garment before we commence alterations.
▪️Alterations for customers who encourage us to use quick/easy methods of sewing, instead of our preferred couture techniques, in the hopes of reducing the time it takes to complete the work. We don’t compromise on quality!

If you’re having to kick your feet forward to prevent tripping over your full skirt, we encourage you to try out a petticoat! In addition to creating beautiful shape and volume, a petticoat makes it so much easier to move 🤍
Please get in touch if you’re interested in hiring one from us for your big day 🥰
