My mum is also a dress maker, but due to health reasons, I didn't ask her to alter my wedding dress. Additionally, after going through a spell of bad luck with retailers going into liquidation and hence losing faith with vendors, my disposition was instantly changed when I engaged Heather for the alterations work. Heather's cheerful personality and honest opinion made all the difference.

For my gown, Heather made some small alteration on the neck line to suit my proportions, brought up the hem and created a bustle. Using my own supply of guipure lace, Heather also made a lace jacket on my request that was modelled after a couple of styles I had found online. Given the style of the dress I had, the lace jacket Heather created was to proportion and paired together very well.

Heather also made some small alternations to a BM dress I had bought on line.

Considering that I grew up wearing clothes made by mum, I am very fussy with cut and quality of the assembly. I have seen the work of many substandard tailors and for this reason, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Heather. A dressmaker worth their salt knows how to handle and work with different fabric types - and Heather has this in abundance, which is reflected by the final product.

Thank you Heather for all your help and early morning appointments. I shall definite send you photos :)
