At Our Studio
A visit to our studio is a relaxing, enjoyable experience. We work by private appointment only so we can give you our full attention during your time with us. Most first appointments last 1hr 20mins so each bride can try on as many dresses as she would like to. We can help and advise you with shape,
style and fit. It's a great time to use the constructive advice of a select few friends and/or family to help you select 'the dress'. We are happy to see groups for appointments, however for space reasons we are only able to accommodate up to 5 people at a time.
If you would like to you can bring all the design ideas you have in mind for your wedding so we can get a feel for the type of wedding you are planning.
You might love one of our dresses just as it is, but if you like elements of different dresses, you may be able to recombine them to create your own unique frock! We've got lots of experience with this and can advise you to help create the best dress for you.
Because Naomi likes to do most of the fittings herself, places are limited for dresses ordered from our studio. If you would like our studio service please book early to avoid disappointment, however if we are fully booked we will do our best to accommodate you through one of our stockists.
If you would like a completely unique design, Naomi loves to take bespoke commissions. This service starts from £3500
The fit of a wedding dress is extremely important, even the simplest gown will look stunning if it is well fitted (and vice versa). We approach sizing in two different ways, and we can advise you on which is the best route for you.
A fitted size – if our samples fit you well and only require some minor tweaks we will recommend that we make you a dress in the closest size to your measurements and alter it closer to your wedding date.
Made to measure – every size and shape can be accommodated with our full made to measure service. With this approach a cotton version of your dress is made up and fitted to your body. An individual pattern is then made from this 'toile' and used to cut your dress in silk. Three further silk fittings are required to ensure your dress is perfect on the day. It's more expensive but definitely worth it.
Fitting appointments generally last between 45mins and an hour. Your final fitting will be about 4 weeks before your wedding so that you will be able to collect your dress about 2 weeks before the day.
For the best finish please always remember to bring the correct underwear and your shoes to all your fittings.
We have some selected accessories in the studio including bespoke veils but please feel free to bring any other adornments you are considering to your dress fittings so that we can see how the whole look is coming together..Do let us know if you are struggling to find the perfect accessory – we have a wealth of knowledge as we spend a lot of time at bridal show and reading magazines so we may be able to help you find what you are looking for.
We are open Tuesday to Saturday 10am to 5.30pm. Please 'contact us' to arrange an appointment.
