TESTIMONIAL by Viv:
"Chantal is an incredibly accurate judge of character and after a parade of white a-lines, despite my protestations, it was so liberating to find someone who was willing to put me in something really sexy and in a colour that actually suited me!
While the dress Chantal designed turned out to be absolutely perfect, and set the entire tone of the day, the design process was about more than the end product for me. Designing something from scratch can be a daunting prospect but Chantal made me feel more confident about myself by recognizing and accentuating my positive features

and knowing we both shared the same vision of how I wanted to look took away any apprehension about the end result.
By the time I walked down the aisle I looked fantastic but more importantly I felt like a goddess and that confidence made all the difference to my day.
Having my dress designed by such a professional with an outstanding eye for detail made my wedding extra special and I would highly recommend Chantal’s fitting sessions and soothing cups of tea as a tonic for even the most stressed bride. Thank you for all your hard work and helping me knock the socks off my groom and friends."

TESTIMONIAL by Kerry:
"Finding a Wedding Dress!
The thought of finding a wedding dress was terrifying, mainly because I don't have a very womanly figure. When I first met Chantal she put me into a sample corset and gave me the figure I'd always dreamt of. I couldn't believe my eyes! Boobs! And with out surgery!
Chantal is an absolute creative genius; she translated my thoughts and ideas firstly on to paper (a beautiful sketch) and then into THE dress. I trusted Chantal implicitly; she's a perfectionist which guaranties an amazingly high standard of work. My dress was exactly what I hoped it would be. Thanks Chantal."

Opposite- Kerry's design work & a close up of the detailing.
A footnote from the designer............
This gown was a lovely commission - we designed a gown with two different straps (one wide softly gathered & sculptured strap & one thin pale green strap decorated with hand painted & beaded french lace. Kerry wanted an antique look with soft muted colours & lots of subtle, blending 3-dimentional detailing which included a lovely silk rose, delicate feathers, hand painted & hand beaded french lace & swaged organza detailing on the corset. This gown took a lot of handwork & planing & it shows in the results (I new as I was making up the gown, how good it was going to look & I wasn't dissapointed).
