L A U G H

What makes you laugh? Today there was a pile of puppies at the park, one of them was Kathryn’s dog Zac, and you couldn’t help but laugh at the pure joy those puppies had tumbling over each other.

Also, our Poppy/Clara dress with her removable flounces makes us smile. Like so much.

Today is Victoria Day and because I (Kelsey) am a

Today is Victoria Day and because I (Kelsey) am a huge historic fashion nerd, here are a few things you may or may not know about Queen Victoria.
🤍
She was crowned Queen at 18 years old. The first photo is her coronation portrait.
🤍
She is the reason we wear white wedding dresses. Swipe to the second photo to see her wedding dress.
🤍
She and Prince Albert had 9 children (though she hated being pregnant!), most of whom married into the other European monarchies, giving her the nickname the “Grandmother of Europe”. She was the grandmother of the kings of Russia, Germany and England at the time of WWI...talk about a family feud!
🤍
She had an entire historic period named after her. The Victorian Era saw the rise of the Industrial Revolution, great societal change and the expansion of the British Empire.
🤍
There have been many movies and tv series made about her. My favourites are:
Victoria (currently a 4 season tv series, with rumours of a 5th and final season). In Canada you can watch this on CBC and CBC Gem app.
Victoria and Abdul (Judy Dench plays Queen Victoria at the end of her life and the unlikely friendship between her and an Indian man who came from India to present her with a gift and stayed to teach her Urdu and the Quran).
🤍
And now you know a little bit about the person behind the reason for our May long weekend here in Canada!

It’s the long weekend baby!!! Just don’t be t

It’s the long weekend baby!!!
Just don’t be this close...this was taken in 2019. One day. Soon. Dear God we hope soon.

Happy Saturday all!!
We have had a bunch of new followers over the last week, so it’s time to introduce ourselves!
🤍
Kathryn and Kelsey have been designing separately since the early 2000s and together since 2015.
🤍
We were set up by a mutual friend, and after a few months (and literally only meeting in person twice)...Kathryn proposed...
...a business partnership!
Kelsey accepted on the spot (when you know, you know) and our New Romantics separates line was launched shortly after, which became our Bespoke Bridal collection for the 2020 season.
🤍
Most days you will find Kathryn drinking coffee, answering emails, drinking coffee, processing store orders, drinking more coffee, pattern drafting, drinking even more coffee, and keeping our accounts balanced and employees paid.
🤍
Kelsey can be found behind the cutting table.
Every.
Single.
Dress.
Is cut by her.
She manages our team of sewers and makes sure all the orders are shipped to the right people. You will also find her in our showroom helping our local brides find their dream dress.
She is also our social media maven (so if you DM us or comment, it’s usually me answering you!! Hello!)
🤍
Kathryn has a husband and 2 children and a new puppy.
🤍
Kelsey has a garden and drinks prosecco.
🤍
And now you know a bit more about us! Any questions...feel free to ask.
Better yet...book an appointment to come see us in person!

Today is finally the day!!! ⁣
🤍🥂🍾💍⁣
After a bit of a delay, we are finally shooting our elopement collection today, so stay tuned to our stories for behind the scenes shots!⁣
⁣
There are 6 dresses in all, made from our dead stock fabric. This means we will only be making 2-3 of each style. Have you signed up for first access to them? DM us to get on the list!⁣
🤍

A helping hand. ⁣
Tag the person you would trust to do up your wedding shoes!⁣
Also, we will never stop loving the fabric/colour combination that #KBrealbride P chose for her Laura/Sadie gown...sequins and nude satin. ⁣
So. Much. Yes!⁣
