She is refurbishing my mum's dress so I can use it.

Mind you she is local to me, and that was quite useful when deciding, specially for that fitting phase!

Good luck.

I walk past The Couture Company (Birmingham) a lot and they always have the most fabulous dresses in their window.

Thanks guys these look amazing ? especially the felicity one but a bit out of my price range ?

You could always spunk your cash, spill some red wine at the end of the night and then claim it back on your insurance?

Come on, come on, that's funny!

Carlton Couture in Ripon are overhauling my mother's dress for my daughter - so far it all seems to be going well!! Cost £990 for recreated (ie new fabric same style) bottom half and altered remainder.

Ah Footlong, you're really making me laugh today!

Welcome back jjkcb! We thought you had flounced after your last showing on here. Hope you have been behaving yourself in the other forums too?

to answer your q I will always recommend Joanne Fleming as a dress designer, other end of the country to you but if you are willing to travel....

It nice to have a forum where if some one politely asks a simple question people condescend to them and take the piss... your really doing the forum a tonne of favors

thank you to the rest of you for your suggestions ill check them out

Well it beats being blunt and needlessly nasty doesn't it.

Dearie me....

My cousin had her dress custom made by this lady in Leeds www.prodega.com
