About

Felicity is rarely seen without a needle! Showing a keen interest in the dressmaker's art from a young age, she has been sewing for most of her life until she graduated from Wimbledon College of Art with a BA (Hons) in Costume Design, and then went on to specialise in the design and creation of bridalwear in 2003. Having designed, created and altered plenty of dresses in her career, she is a true expert in the field - her vast and comprehensive knowledge of the inner workings of haute couture is hard to beat.

The Bespoke Service

Felicity presents a fully comprehensive dressmaking service from start to finish. All meetings take place in the privacy of Felicity's home, meaning that you will receive her full attention. The process begins with an initial consultation covering your desired style, identifying the various materials you may want and, importantly, the budget you have to play with. You will subsequently receive a design sketch along with a full quote, and if you decide to go ahead, a series of fittings will start with making a 'toile' - a mock-up of the final gown using cheaper, working materials. This is how Felicity achieves such an excellent fit, and so many happy brides!

The Gowns

From silk satin in an array of subtle colours such as buttermilk, blush and blue, to glorious figure-enhancing georgettes - Felicity's extensive stylistic portfolio ranges from classic or vintage-inspired numbers to period dresses and more edgy plunging necklines.

Bridal Party Outfits

Felicity often takes bespoke orders for outfits for the Mother of the Bride or Groom and other attendants such as the Bridesmaids or Flowergirls, and to complete the party, can even present an attractive assortment of waistcoats, ties and cravats for the boys!

Mother Of The Bride/Groom Dress - Typically £450-£600
Bridesmaids' Dresses - Typically £400-£800

Accessories

A completely unique dress deserves bespoke accessories. The multi-talented Felicity is a deft hand at creating effective additions to your gown such as beautiful veils and lace boleros. Tiaras and other jewellery can be individually crafted to match your gown.
