“Catherine listened, understood, and made me feel so comfortable all the way through to the end. With such talent and professionalism, only using the best fabrics and with a great ability to make a dress fit my body like a glove. Thanks for making me feel and look beautiful.”

“I had a number of people come up and tell me that it was the best wedding dress design they had ever seen! I couldn’t wait to put my dress on the day and felt wonderful in it the whole time. It was even better than I had envisaged. I only wish I could wear it more than once.”

“You made it such a fun experience selecting all the components to make both mine and my bridesmaids’ dresses. You always had a brilliant plan to turn a simple idea into a one-of-a-kind design. What transpired was the most breathtaking dress, a true showstopper!”

“Anytime I need an elegant dress made I always go to Catherine. From the dress I wore to my daughter’s wedding, to her kitchen tea, along with other weddings and occasions, I know I can always rely on Catherine to make an elegant, high quality dress.”

“My mum and I went to see Catherine to design a couple of gowns for my brother’s wedding. Catherine created two beautiful gowns and everyone was blown away at how gorgeous we both looked. The fit and the workmanship were second to none. She made me feel like a princess, beautiful and confident!”

“Anyone would be lucky to have her as their dress designer. Amazing experience, friendly, welcoming atmosphere. Her attention to detail is like no other. She listened to my vision and went above and beyond to create a spectacular gown for my son’s wedding.”

“I really can’t think of enough good things to say about Catherine. Right from our first design session she was professional, helpful, friendly and, most importantly to me, very flexible.”

“Catherine not only created my dream wedding dress but made the whole experience so magical. From the very first appointment to the final fitting both myself and my bridesmaids were so happy. We felt comfort as she was so kind and honest with everything. She also created the most amazing dress for my mother, my bridesmaid and flower girl. Highly recommend her and cannot wait for another event to have a reason for her to create another dress for me.”

“My mum and I went to see Catherine to design my couture wedding gown. At first I was apprehensive about getting a dress made but my mum already had a few dresses made by Catherine for my brother’s weddings and they were amazing! When I met beautiful Catherine I felt so comfortable and blessed that I had met her when I did. Catherine created the most beautiful dresses for my bridesmaids, flower girls, my mum & I. Everyone was blown away how amazing it all looked. The work & detail was second to none. By the end of our journey Catherine became family to us and both my mum and I were so sad that our regular fittings were coming to an end.”

“When I first walked in her door many years ago, she knew exactly who I was by just a few words. The warm welcome is addictive and you can’t help but want to stay all day. Catherine is truly an amazing and unique being! Even if I had a new idea to add, she was always there for me. She works with any crazy thought you may have and turns it into a work of art! I recommend everyone to Catherine as I know all the work she has done for me has been nothing but absolutely beautiful.”

“I can’t thank Catherine enough for making my wedding the magical day it was. I was hesitant at first about a couture wedding gown, but after meeting Catherine I felt extremely lucky and blessed to have met such a kind, giving and creative person. The whole experience with Catherine was my favourite part of my wedding journey. Her patience and intuitive nature into knowing exactly what I was feeling and looking for is a unique and masterful talent.”

“Catherine was amazing to work with. The moment I met her, she designed my dream wedding dress & brought my ideas to life, to the very end of dressing me on my wedding day. Her warm, honest nature made the experience absolutely amazing.”

“After months of looking at gown after gown I was starting to believe that my “dream” dress never would become reality. I made my first appointment with Catherine expecting to leave disappointed like the rest. Well was I wrong! From the moment we met she didn’t even need to know what I wanted. She just knew! Always making me feel like I was the only bride in the world. Even when I proposed to trash the dress, she showed such excitement and never questioned my decision once. Such a beautiful woman inside and out.”

“Getting married is so exciting, but stressful also! Catherine made my journey pain-free, peaceful and fun. She supported me and understood what I wanted. The fit of my wedding dress was amazing, as was the design! I felt so beautiful on my wedding day.”

“I wanted to thank you for the amazing work you did on my dress. I absolutely loved it! It really was an amazing day and I got so many wonderful comments on my dress even though I was pregnant. Thank you for being such a pleasure to work with. This was the least stressful experience ever!”

“I wanted something comfortable and practical whilst still maintaining a feeling of elegance and beauty. Catherine was just beautiful to work with. Together we came up with a beaded lace top and a high-waisted silk skirt that trailed behind me. She incorporated lace from my mum’s original wedding dress into the button-up lace back and my veil hair piece, which was very special. I felt so beautiful in her design.”

“Catherine is the best in the business. I barely had to describe what I wanted from my wedding pant suit and she had already drawn up exactly what I wanted, with some of her great additional touches. Every fitting with Catherine was fun. My girlfriends and I really miss spending Saturdays at Catherine’s atelier.”

“Catherine was such a delight to work with. She made my dream dress come to life. It takes a true couturier to take a side sketch of a dress and turn it into a real dress. Catherine is more than just a talented dressmaker, she is an artist and stylist that goes the extra mile for her clients. By the end of the process I am able to consider her a friend.”
