Creating Beautiful Bespoke Wedding Dresses, One Dream at a Time
Welcome to Anne Blanchard Bridal Wear, your premier choice for bespoke wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, and flower girl dresses in Kent and South East London. As a skilled dressmaker with a passion for creating unique and exquisite garments, I, Anne Blanchard, have dedicated my career to crafting bespoke dresses that reflect the individuality and personal style of each client.
A Brief History
I studied Costume Interpretation at The Wimbledon School of Art, honed my skills at various theatre and costume companies, and have worked with esteemed clients such as The Globe Theatre, The Royal Opera House, and The Spice Girls. This wealth of experience has equipped me with the expertise and knowledge to create truly bespoke dresses that exceed my clients' expectations.
Creating a Bespoke Dress
When you commission a bespoke dress from me, we begin by discussing your ideas, styles, and shapes. We'll explore fabrics, lace, and embellishments to create a truly one-of-a-kind dress that reflects your personality and style. From measuring and drafting a pattern to the final fitting and embellishments, I guide you every step of the way, ensuring your dress is a perfect reflection of you.
The Process
After our initial consultation, I'll sketch your design and send you a detailed estimate of the making charge and fabric costs. Once you've confirmed your order, I'll take your measurements and create a personal pattern. The dress-making process involves multiple fittings, during which we'll refine the design, and I'll make any necessary adjustments.
Embellishments and Finishing Touches
The final stage involves adding the perfect embellishments, from delicate edgings and buttons to precious gems and pearls. This is your chance to add that extra wow factor to your dress and make it truly unforgettable.
