Appointments: We work by appointment, within which you will be looked after by one of our experienced fitting consultants. They will advise you on alterations needed to fit your bridal wear well. A price estimate will be established at the end of the fitting for you to decide whether or not you are comfortable going forward with the alteration. We can offer a variety of solutions to alter your garment; some might save costs. Please ask.
*Please bring your shoes to your appointment or some with a similar heel height as well as your undergarments to ensure we can fit your bridal garments perfectly.
Fittings are available in our spacious studio or for your convenience
Charges: Due to many styles and finishes, it is difficult to provide an estimate for you on the phone. We need to see your bridal wear, the inside construction and also you wearing it. Charges for similar alterations may vary, in particular for complex, constructed dresses and heavily detailed designer wear. Our bridal charges are based on time at a rate of £90 per hour. For bridal alterations closer to your wedding date than 6 weeks, express charges will apply.
Catherine Deane Alterations
Catherine Deane Alterations:
Our team enjoys altering Catherine Deane’s bridal designs, particularly her ensembles and separates. The often beaded or laced tops and separate skirts or trousers deliver a fantastic fit. Brides can wear both pieces independently after the wedding, contributing to Catherine Deane’s commitment to more sustainability in her bridal designs.
The costs of Catherine Deane’s alterations depend on the fabric type and the finish, as well as the width and quantity of the skirts. To secure the detailing, our seamstresses finish beaded fabrics by hand.
Like the Catherine Deane brand, we believe that outstanding customer service is key to elevating brides’ experience at this significant phase in their lives.
Catherine Deane
As a bridal brand, Catherine Deane is firmly committed to the promise of high-quality, stunningly designed bridal outfits at an affordable price point for the modern bride who is passionate about transparency and sustainable practice but does not want to compromise on luxurious textures and fabrics.
The dress designs are timeless, inspired by Bohemian and romantic styles. The flowing design lines express strength and fragility equally, a quality the Catherine Deane brand associates with women.
We highly value the brand’s sustainability promise of being more than 40% eco-friendly. The garments’ linings and many dress fabrics are made from recycled fibres. Furthermore, Catherine Deane’s eco-fibre packaging is biodegradable, and the brand has switched from print to digital communication.
