Shopping Tips

This is such an exciting time, and there’s no reason you shouldn’t take the time and effort to find a dress or outfit that helps you look your best on such a proud and special day.

Whether you are buying online or visiting one of our boutiques, we are here to support you in finding the perfect outfit for your daughter or son’s wedding.

Although there are no hard and fast rules about what you should wear or how you should accessorise, there are a few accepted norms, such as:

• It is normal for the mother of the bride to select her outfit before the mother of the groom, but this is not always the case. It’s important to keep the lines of communication open to avoid unfortunate clashes or matching outfits.
• While some prefer bright, vivid colours, wedding outfits traditionally feature more muted tones to complement the bridal party rather than overpower them. If pale shades feel daunting, we can help you find the right colour and tone for your complexion.

If you’re visiting one of our boutiques, you’ll find a wide range of dresses and outfits to suit you. Every shopping experience is unique, whether you come alone, with your son or daughter, or as a group. Embrace the day — it should be enjoyable, so don’t be disheartened if the first few outfits aren’t quite right. Our skilled and experienced team will offer friendly, honest advice throughout.

We encourage you to try different colours, silhouettes, fabrics and styles. Our team will help you discover what looks and feels right for your special day. Don’t be shy — being open about what you like and dislike helps us find your perfect outfit more quickly.

Many customers are surprised to find they choose a wild card once they’ve explored our full collection. We are open seven days a week, and appointments are required so you have the time and space to browse, try on outfits and enjoy the experience in a relaxed environment.

If you’re shopping online, we’re still here to help you find “the one” — the perfect fit in look, feel, colour and style. Our team is available by phone or email to answer any questions you may have.

We offer a true one-stop shop, where you can complete your entire look — from hat to shoes — in one place. Our exclusive millinery designs are made to perfectly complement your chosen outfit. You can secure your outfit with a £250 deposit, with final payment on collection, or opt for our monthly payment scheme with no hidden fees, charges or credit checks.
