Hilary Alexander Loves Our Tea Dresses In Today’s Telegraph…x

We’re so thrilled to see the Astaire Pure Silk Dress and Illustrative Tea Dress as mentioned by Hilary at www.suzannah.com/dresses/tea-dresses.  Perfect for the races, summer weddings and our fab spring parties.  The sun is shining!

 

Tea Cup Fifties Dress

So excited that this dress has finally happened.

Developing the prints and producing them on just the right base cloth can sometimes take such time,..tooing and froing to Italy.

I have had this dress in my mind for so long,  getting so impatient ,..but developing everything from scratch sometimes

requires more patience than my fashion mind allows.

However here is the Tea Cup Fifties Dress , ready just in time for the spring sunshine.

Our geniuses on Lake Como have achieved wonders with the new Italian silk cotton fabric . It is so light to the touch,  printing our

beautiful fine artwork has seemingly added to the nature of it.  The dress looks and feels like a dream and wonderful to wear.

As fine and light as a china tea cup and hopefully a classic dress which can be treasured for years.

Corseted, seamed and padded in our Boudoir style the silhouette has become dreamy and romantic but yet has an edge

which makes it versatile with various footwear m from 70’s wooden sandals through to fun brogues and simple peep toes too.

You can wasp it in with a hard belt or leave it simple , styled only with your hands in the pockets while you dream along.

Her cherry lip stain and simple clip  are enough to lift the pop of colour in the 30s inspired vintage tea dress in the stunning photograph below…x

 

Our Beautiful 1940’s Bride…x

Rebecca came back to us through our friend Kate who owns KJ’s Laundry , a fabulous New York style boutique in Marylebone Lane London.

She originally bought a vintage print tea dress from us a few years ago and it had so much become her favourite dress that she tried to seek out a version for

her wedding! A less formal wedding with lots of personalisation , a few things home made,..and packed full of integrity.

Happy to oblige as we were obviously  flattered …and as the new launch of our cocktail bridal range is very much on our radar we set on the exciting project, to create our first Bridal Tea Dress.

What could give us, ( especially me) more pleasure:-)

We found THE most gorgeous piece of hammered silk satin imaginable. Not quite Ballet shoe, not quite Cosmetic Pink,….Just the perfect perfect blushy, beigey pink which would

not only suit the dress and its vintage origin but also the rosey cheeked English skin tone of Rebecca.

Thankfully she loved as much as we, and with only 3 metres of it available,…never to be found again it was just meant to be.

We added some fine French levers lace ( with the colour name of Ginger Snap ..we couldn’t resist)  to the inside neck tie and faced the whole tulip sleeve and neckline tie in buttercream silk satin to give it a tonal and textural contrast.

We kept the dress un-lined to ensure that it wasn’t too heavy and didnt’ lose its sexiness and closeness to the bust and lower back . A perfect demure dress with a cheekily sexy fit!

Perfect.

Here it is in the making,…..and scroll down for the most fabulous bride …x

Complete with Bellapocella head piece and 40’s style peep toes from Anthropologie.

Alex Jones wears the Suzannah Red Dress on the One Show

Spotted!

Actually by the lovely guy who makes these dresses for us in the depths of Wales!

Alex Jones looked stunning last night wearing a strong quirky dress on the BBC’s One Show.

The red dress from the Suzannah collection was perfect for her personality.

The Boulder Shoulder body con dress in cherry red was from our AW 10 collection,…we currently have purple and olive in stock, and our fabric mill in Italy is

dying a fabulous deep orange and a pillar box red which will be ready for sewing soon: These dresses will be ready by mid march.

We’ve got our eyes on these dresses for a fab night out thinking that they would double up fabulously with a

pill box hat for Ascot! ( Forties in a fabulously constructed modern Herve Leger way peut-etre?)
