Demure Designs
Create your own unique gown from Demures’ in-house range of versatile designs incorporating both classic, timeless looks and current styles. Choose from a selection of bodice and skirt designs which are easy to combine to create your unique signature style. These designs are versatile, allowing you to customise them for a range of events and functions, from formal to casual depending upon the chosen fabrics and trims. Personalise your dress by adding an overskirt or peplum, a lace overlay or experiment with colour blocking, contrasting fabrics or embellishing it with trims. Make a short dress in a casual fabric for work or lunch with the girls, or use silks and beaded lace to create a gown for that special evening event. Whatever the occasion, I can guide you in using Demures’ Designs to create an outfit which will be an expression of your personal style.
Commercial Patterns
Whilst Demures’ Designs offer a large range of possibilities, some clients would prefer more choice of styles, but without the added expense of having a pattern custom made for them. Select a commercial pattern from the hundreds that are readily available or be inspired by my catalogues of exquisite Italian designed dress patterns which can be ordered on your behalf. These designs are the essence of elegance for wedding dresses, evening gowns, cocktail attire and high end daywear, whether you are seeking something classic or modern.
I will work with you in recommending suitable fabrics and trims to complement your chosen pattern, and will customise details where necessary. Following a trial run of your outfit with a toile, or mock up, to identify and refine any fitting issues, your pattern is sewn in your chosen fabrics.
Demure Couture
This service allows you the greatest control over your design as we work together discussing the details you would like to incorporate in your creation. We will draw inspiration for the various elements of your design from your favourite garments, photos and pictures, whilst also considering your personal style, figure and the overall theme of the event. I will guide you through style options, fabric selection and embellishment ideas, before a pattern is custom made for your unique design. A mock up of your design is made where the fit can be refined and the designs details of your garment are further explored. At this point, we are able to make alterations to the fit and design as the dress evolves, until we are satisfied and ready to commence constructing your dress from your actual fabric.
