Specialization
I specialize in dressmaking for bridal, drag, performance, and elaborate couture garments. My work focuses on technically complex construction, dramatic silhouettes, and highly detailed finishes. I am experienced in creating garments designed for visual impact, durability, and performance. Each piece is developed with careful attention to fit, structure, and movement, ensuring both aesthetic strength and practical functionality.
Pricing
Bespoke & Couture Garments
Every garment is individually priced based on complexity, construction requirements, and design detail. No two pieces are the same, so no two quotes are the same. Bespoke garments start from £400, with complex or heavily embellished pieces priced individually following consultation.
Consultations are completely free and zero pressure. We'll talk through your vision, your requirements, and any special features you need but there's absolutely no obligation to proceed. Within 24–48 hours of your consultation, you'll receive a full written quote itemizing your costs, including:
-
Labour: covering pattern cutting, construction, design development, and all technical work
-
Fabric and materials, whether sourced by me or supplied by you
-
A sourcing fee where fabric and materials are researched and sourced on your behalf, calculated based on the complexity of sourcing required and clearly itemised before any work begins, bringing your own materials removes this entirely
-
Any specialist findings, embellishments, or haberdashery required
Fittings are included throughout the process at no extra charge. All materials sourced on your behalf are charged at cost price with no markup. A written agreement will be provided before any work begins.
Every finished garment includes a complimentary studio photoshoot, so you leave with both your piece and professional photographs to keep.
Alterations & Repairs
My alterations work focuses primarily on bridal, occasion, and performance wear, pieces that require specialist handling, careful construction knowledge, and an understanding of complex fabrics and embellishments.
If you have a garment that needs attention and you're not sure whether it falls within my services, please get in touch, I'm always happy to have a conversation.
