I had a dress made for my sister in laws wedding and it was absolutely stunning! Helen couldn’t do more to make me feel comfortable and make sure I got what I wanted. She’s an absolute star and I can’t recommend her enough, she was so patient with my indecisiveness and gave me plenty of ideas to make sure the dress was perfect. Thanks again, I’ll definitely be coming back xxx More...

I cannot praise this lady enough! She has altered my bridesmaid dresses for me and has done a fantastic job! My bridesmaids felt uncomfortable and unsure about their dresses but Helen knew exactly what needed altering and they are all very happy now. Helen also rescued me from a rip off bridal outlet who were charging a fortune for my dress, she has also transformed my dress and I absolutely love it. Helen is very patient, kind and a lovely lady! I cannot wait to pick up my dress in a couple of weeks! Thank you so much xxx More...

I would highly recommend Helen, we'd purchased a prom dress as my daughter loved the style and the fit but just wanted that bit more to it. Helen made the changes and the dress was just how she wanted it to be. Helen was lovely all way through even when we made changes it wasn't a hassle. I would highly recommend Helen, she's fabulous. The dress was amazing! More...

I wouldn’t go anywhere else if I wanted something making or altering as Helen puts you at ease, has great ideas of her own which are helpful and always does an excellent job - you could trust her with your most cherished and expensive garments. No hesitation whatsoever recommending her and her being local with good parking (I park in Tesco’s local and never had a problem) is a hugh bonus - my daughter recommended her to me More...

Helen did all the alterations on my bridesmaids dresses, my husbands suit, and my wedding dress just recently! She did an absolutely marvellous job and is very reasonably priced. So much so that I've since taken other dresses for adjustment after losing a bit of weight as well. And she even watched my little one whilst I got changed (absolute superhero) thanks so much Helen, cannot recommend you enough, and will definitely be coming to you for all my seamstress needs in future xxx More...

I had a huge bridesmaid dress, about 3 sizes too big with lace overlay, bones, fluttery sleeves, everything that made me worry it couldn't be taken in. Helen did it so quickly and neatly and really put my mind at rest and made me look fabulous in it! Her prices are very reasonable and she's a pleasure to deal with. More...

Helen made my beautiful bridesmaids dresses for my wedding last December. They were made to measure and were exactly how I wanted them.
Helen was so accomadating of baby able to fit each of the girls in for their fittings around their work schedules etc. She was even able to make the flower girls to have he same colours to match my older bridesmaids.
She also made my mum M.O.B dress too which was lovely. Nothing was ever too much. Helen also made some alterations to my wedding dress- sourced me a hoop that would make the skirt of my dress huge which I loved. And put a new panel in the back of my dress with it being a corset back.
I promise to send some pictures soon Helen, I can't thank you enough, so very talented!! X
