Cut out a toile on the living floor today... once I relocated Ted. Put some Glen Miller on the record player, had a lovely time 🤓

Designing this week for a lovely bride whose Greek beach wedding will be absolutely dreamy whatever style she picks! . . . #weddingdress #bespokeweddingdress #coutureweddingdress #moderncouture #sarahbarkerbridal #designyourownweddingdress #londondressmaker #londoncouture #londonweddings #fashiondesigner #dressmaker #seamstress #style #patternmaking #hautecouture #atelier #bride #2020bride #2021bride

Cami top with short lining - just need to make some straps and I can finish this up :) swipe for the bias cut slip dress which is at the same stage. I’ve been at @fashionworkspace today, making more samples of Fundamentals designs. So nice to have the whole co-working studio to myself! . . . #patterncutting #pattermaking #dressmaking #dressmaker #londondressmaker #londonstudio #londonfashionstudio #londonatelier #sarahbarkerbridal #madetoorderbridal #madetoorderweddingdress #customweddingdress #bespokeweddingdress #slowfashion #atelier #bride #2020bride #2021bride

I am taking bookings for 2020 & ‘21 bespoke bridalwear projects. I love to work with brides on their own design ideas, like this clean and timeless white satin empire line gown. If you’ve yet to find your dream dress get in touch with your ideas! . . . #weddingdress #bespokeweddingdress #coutureweddingdress #moderncouture #sarahbarkerbridal #designyourownweddingdress #londondressmaker #londoncouture #londonweddings #fashiondesigner #dressmaker #seamstress #style #patternmaking #hautecouture #atelier #bride #2020bride #2021bride

⚡️New website content!⚡️ Photos from Zoe’s wedding are now up in the gallery, along with a blog post about this restyle project. For Zoe we took a simple top and skirt and added new fabrics to create a feminine bridal look. . . . #weddingdress #weddingdresses #customweddingdress #customisedclothing #upcycling #upcyclingfashion #casualbride #laidbackbride #londonseamstress #londonweddingdresses #sarahbarkerbridal

New business cards 🤓 and some stickers too.

I’ve been working on my Procreate skills! And have finally completed the tech sketches for the 9 styles in my Fundamentals capsule. Pattern cutting and toiling up for these guys is on hold this week while I’m home with Ted the dog - who’s convalescing from neutering surgery, poor guy 🥺 - so it feels good to be making progress, even if it’s only in illustration form. . . . #procreate #procreateillustration #procreatefashion #procreatefashionillustrator #procreatefashionillustration #fundamentals #sarahbarkerbridal #madetoorder #weddingdress #weddingdresses #customisedweddingdress
