"I have known Karen for many years and have used her services on many occasions.

Karen's strength lies in her ability to listen to her clients, interpret their requirements (through numerous photos and sketches that she took with us) and then put them into practice.

She always delivers a top quality product at a sensible price. My advice....? Don't hesitate...."

"Karen’s caring attitude and professionalism alleviated the need for any stress that I would otherwise have felt at this important time.

I thoroughly enjoyed the experience & am grateful to Karen for the personal attention given & how special I was made to feel.

More importantly the dress was beautiful, comfortable and easy to wear!!"

My Work

"Karen made the perfect dress for my wedding day.

I described to Karen what I had in mind, the style evolved over time with Karen using her expertise and patience trying out new ideas & suggestions that suited my shape and size."

 

"I wanted my wedding dress made in just ten weeks and I ordered the material before I even spoke to Karen, I presented her with a picture - saying "like this but without that bit, this bit shorter, that bit lower, less ribbon.... oh and its going to be tartan!

Despite the material arriving very late and my waist shrinking by the week, Karen produced the dress I had dreamt of. "

"Karen made my daughter’s wedding dress and transformed an idea into reality – all without patterns!

However, I feel the photos do not do the dress justice and do not show the detail of the handsewn beads, flow of the material or explain just how comfortable the dress was to wear (after all, you want the dress to feel like a glove)."
