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.

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

Congratulations to Hannah and Jamie 🥰 just received some photos of this gorgeous wedding from the end of August. This project was a big alteration! Hannah bought a dress with sleeves and panels to cover the upper back, but had dreams of a backless gown with slender straps and a square front neckline. I made new straps from the removed sleeves and completely reshaped the front to the new design, as well as taking in the waist/seat and raising the hem. I’m thrilled to see it went well! And to hear how delighted the bride was with her unique look. More photos to follow on my website shortly, along with others from this years projects 😊 . . . #weddingdress #wedding #weddingday #bridal #bridalwear #bridalgowns #bespoke #bespokeweddingdress #alterations #bridalalterations #weddingdressdesign #couture #custom #customiseddress #customisedweddingdress #customizedweddingdress #sarahbarkerbridal
