How We Transform Your Gown

This beautiful gown began as a simple satin corset dress before being transformed into a breathtaking floral masterpiece. We overlaid the entire gown and train with exquisite champagne floral lace, extending the bodice to the shoulders to create a beautifully elegant finish.

This particular design was crafted using luxurious Italian lace, with the completed gown priced at £1,500. For brides looking for a more subtle transformation, the same lace can be applied to the bodice alone from £900. With a collection of over 200 lace swatches, we can create a bespoke look to suit every style, vision, and budget.

Whether you're dreaming of a dramatic lace overlay, sparkling crystal embellishments, elegant sleeves, or beautifully handcrafted finishing touches, we'll work closely with you to create a gown that's uniquely yours. We can even design a matching veil, add a crystal belt, or create a delicate lace bolero to complete your bridal look.

For this stunning gown, we reshaped the neckline into an elegant sweetheart style before hand-stitching delicate floral lace across the bodice to create a beautifully romantic finish. To achieve a dramatic fishtail silhouette, we added layers of soft handkerchief tulle to the skirt and completed the look with a bespoke matching veil.

This bespoke transformation was priced at £1,400, with the coordinating veil available from £80.

We completely reimagined this beautiful Victoria Kay designer satin gown by adding exquisite champagne floral lace. To create a striking illusion back, we incorporated a sheer mesh panel before carefully hand-stitching each lace appliqué into place, transforming a simple backless dress into a truly one-of-a-kind design.

The finished gown is effortlessly chic, beautifully sophisticated, and undeniably glamorous – perfect for brides who want to make a statement on their wedding day.

Including the lace and all hand-finished embellishments, this bespoke transformation was priced at £1,200.
