A Wimbledon round up ..x

A fabulous Wimbledon round up for Suzannah dresses this year 2016..x

Well done Andy Murray ! Such a well earned beautiful gold trophy after such a thrilling match to top of incredible performance at Wimbledon this year.

And of course Serena Williams. I had the pleasure of watching Serena on centre court from the Royal Box this Tuesday. Such power. Such an icon for women and for the future of tennis. A great sport . So inspiring .

I wore our Granddad french broderie lace shirt waister with Marni silver shoes and Hardy Amies sunnies. Gloria wore our abstract bow silk pussy bow blouse and 1950s twill skirt in navy.

Here are a few pictures from our Wimbledon week.  We proudly saw Pippa Middleton, Ellie Goulding, HRH Countess of Wessex and Gill Brook , the Wimbledon chairman’s wife all wearing Suzannah dresses in the Royal Box this week. Thank you also to Tatler for the coverage in their Wimbledon shopping guide for suggesting our Hot-house hearts shirt dress as the perfect wear.

The National service of Thanksgiving outfits..x

We were thrilled to see some of our outfits at the service as part of the Queen’s 90th celebrations at the weekend for the National service of Thanksgiving.

HRH Sophie Countess of Wessex wore a bespoke coat dress which we designed specifically for this occasion. The coat dress was originated from a beautiful 1940’s archive piece which we sourced in Paris earlier in the year and was originally from the States. The beautiful soft shoulder line and elegant collar-line lengthened the silhouette and acted as a beautiful frame to support the full  fluid skirt part. The waistline was pitched slightly higher and swept down into the small of the back to give plenty of space for a dramatic hem sweep.

The coat dress was cut to be slightly a-frame at the front to skim the hips, with the fullness and drama thrown into the back seam-lines. The front hemline was rounded and soft to echo the raglan shoulder and collar with subtle echoes of this curvature in the cuff too.

The entire coat was made in London from a beautiful wool silk, and fully lined in silk whilst being fully mounted onto silk organza.

The result, a demure feminine piece which was worn with of course upmost elegance and grace.

Jane Taylor created the beautiful millinery, which she created to match the coat dress.

Beautiful New York Suzannah Bride in the snow..x

Congratulations to beautiful Lizzie! Our gorgeous white wedding in the New York snow. Thank you so much Lizzie for sharing these fabulous photos and showing what great fun you can have in our dresses!

We made Lizzie a bespoke version of our Doris Lace dress in a wonderful Ivory french Leavers lace. Lizzie wanted a ballerina length special dress which showed off her wonderful curves. It was great fun fitting the dress to Lizzie and adding a tiny hint of glimmer around the neckline with glass beads. Lizzie completed the film star style with a glass beaded head piece by Emmy..xLizzie Gill Demure Roses Lizzie Gill in the snow Lizzie Gill Full Length Lizzie Gill Dancing Lizzie Gill Trumpet
