We spotted the beautiful HRH Sophie Countess of Wessex wearing our Marigold print silk tea dress on tour in Sri Lanka. Our silk tea dresses pack beautifully and come in a variety of unique prints designed by us. Perfect to roll up and pack for events overseas.
We have produced a beautiful Spring Summer 2018 collection with new printed silk pieces to style up or down. Key pieces include our silk Odette Jumpsuit with a classic coin sized polka dot, a wonderfully flattering relaxed wear. Similarly, tailored from our gorgeous silk which has been printed in Italy the silk polo neck top in the reverse coin sized polka dot and high waisted slim trousers are perfect versatile pieces to take you stylishly from day through to event! We have also updated our classic tea dress with a round slit neck line and 3/4 sleeves. Introduced in several prints, the poppy red quill feather print is certainly a team favourite and can translate through the seasons easily.

Beautiful ballerina Darcey Bussell looked wonderful wearing the V Curve Grande for BBCs Strictly come Dancing show for the semi final on BBC. The V Curve is a grand statement cocktail dress silhouette. It is the most wonderful elegant occasionwear dress perfect for a simple wedding dress alternative or for a dramatic races day look. A slender waist is created by sitting slightly higher than the natural waist and synched with a detachable belt. A full circular skirt with pockets adds plenty of 1950s drama. Available in a beautiful White Sparkle as shown, a Powder Blue Sparkle or in a Molten Blue and Gold jacquard.
We were invited to take part in one of a series of Speakers lunches at Coworth Park Ascot. The audience enjoyed a beautiful Michelin Star 3 course lunch with champagne and chocolates. During coffee Suzannah spoke about her history and told the story of her career and the brand path. Then she progressed into the etiquette for the social season events and what to wear for black and white tie whilst our beautiful model Rebecca walked the room in her Suzannah outfits dressed from head to heel in coordinated stylish millinery dress coat and shoes. Kate Wilkinson provided the make up and hair and created Rebecca into a perfect modern-day Audrey Hepburn. Here are the etiquette guidelines with accompanying photographs from the event…x

A fabulous article about Suzannah in today’s Daily Telegraph. A fabulous listing amongst other fabulous brands as under the radar and up and coming.
SUZANNAH
The low-down: Classic, beautifully made-to-measure dresses, suits and wedding dresses with a vintage-but-not-too-vintage vibe.
What makes this different from the rest? Whether you visit her boutique in London, near Selfridges on Oxford Street, or online, the first thing you’ll see is ready-to-wear styles. If you’re looking for modifications or want to ensure you have a one-off, that is available. All customized pieces are made in London.
What’s the damage? From £295 for an off-the-peg jacket, £425 for a silk tea-dress, up to £900-plus for bespoke, depending on fabrics. Wedding dresses are under £2,000.
Why you should know: Suzannah Crabb worked for both M&S and Karen Millen. Made-to-measure takes a up to 12 weeks and requires a couple of fittings. It’s worth the investment, these are deceptively simple dresses in silks and satins that won’t date, glamorous yet playful. No wonder they appeal to all types, from fashion editors to young royals (who look their best when wearing her).
Bottom line: Because her bespoke is adapted from her ready-to-wear, you get a clear idea of what your made-to-measure will look like; that takes the stress and fear out of ordering.
