I am very pleased that finally z-mode receives well deserved celebrity approval!
Have a look at these beautiful girls dressed in z-mode aren't they look wonderful!

Inspired by the 'Cloud Nine'

This is most probably my 'most wanted' dress! I am very pleased and proud that it caught so many peoples eyes.
Our lovely Young British Designers had a lovely post about it, that's what they had to say:

'A fairy tale dress. A dress made of clouds. A dress that floats and drapes and glows about you.'
( http://www.youngbritishdesigners.com/blog/2011/05/19/on-cloud-nine/)

Also there were few request to re-make the 'Cloud Nine' into more cocktail type of dress.
here are some pictures of my private client orders. It even reached Miss Great Britain 2010 finals!

London Fashion Week Debute

Finally it is all over! Long awaited show that I worked for countless nights finished in approximately 10 minutes! Now that is not fair I thought! What do you do now?
Especially 3 AM in the morning, Im used to sewing till then! I guess I should learn how to sleep at night again.

It all could feel a bit pointless if not all this fabulous press after the show!
I'm like a small child running to my computer and googling z-mode every half hour!

I found some fabulous articles from http://alittlefashionromance.blogspot.com/ and http://www.ladympresents.co.uk/ thank you girls for your nice words!

While Im waiting how to download my fashion runway video from my old camcorder to the computer I will share some Look Book SS11 pictures with you!

Jak Spedding Photography

I have just received these fabulous pictures form Jak Spedding.
He did this absolutely beautiful photo shoot surrounded by flowers.
Whimsical, airy, light and very summery, or just beautiful!

I must say It is always nice to see how different photographers interpret differently your clothes.
I must do a comparison write up one day, it will be nice to see how one dress can have few completely different looks.
For now enjoy the pictures!

Here Comes the Bride

It was so amazing to see the sparkle in Julie's eyes, she looked absolutely amazing!
There is no better feeling than to see your customer happy, and yes she was! The wedding was perfect, the venue was perfect, the shoes were perfect, of course the dress was perfect and yes she was, absolutely perfect!

Jon was so proud and so lucky and the kids looked amazing too, well behaved as well I must say!

In fact even the weather was perfect too! Not very often you get weather like this in Britain on your wedding day!

So as you see the whole eternity was with you that day Julie, and I hope it stays like this for years to come! Congratulations once again!

I must also mention the amazing photography was done by Shoot Photography www.shoot-lifestyle.co.uk
