A glimpse of the sweet Marie-Claire. This first image instantly reminds me of Grace Kelly. Same elegance. Same poise. ❤️

Marie-Claire wanted to add a hint of blue to her dress to honour her faith. That soft light blue was the perfect choice to highlight her beautiful face and radiant skin.

She is wearing a custom Toni, made of embroidered Calais lace, delicate blue silk georgette, and a silk crepe bias-cut skirt that hugs her figure to perfection.

At her request I embroidered her veil with words from Dante’s Divine Comedy... A love letter to her Italian husband.

The ceremony took place in Vancouver where she is from. I love to think that my dresses are travelling around the world. ❤️🌍

Her last fitting.
She already felt like the queen that she is.

Watch those panels of silk organza catch the air as she walks. I cannot stop thinking about how beautiful she looked during her Spanish ceremony close to the sea.

I wish you could hear her mother cheering in the background.

Something blue. But what if the blue was a love letter, hand-embroidered into your veil?

When my lovely bride to be asked me if I could stitch a verse from the Divine Comedy onto her veil, I knew there is something deeply poetic and spiritual about her.

So I stitched Dante’s words along the edge of her tulle, in delicate blue thread. “L’amor che move il sole e l’altre stelle.” The love that moves the sun and the other stars.

A lovely surprise for her husband. And a quiet nod to the touches of blue woven into her gown.

No idea is too personal. That is the beauty of bespoke.

Lately at the atelier…
No two days are the same. The wedding season has officially started and the atelier is buzzing.

Different dresses, different women, different stories. Yet always the same obsession with detail, and the same love for couture. And the constant belief that how you feel in a dress matters as much as how you look.

The 2026 season is almost full. A few spots remain for September to December weddings, and we are already taking orders for 2027.

At your feet, in every sense of the word.
On the floor, pins in hand, making sure every centimetre is exactly right.

Getting the hem right is not a small thing. It is the difference between a regular wedding dress and a wedding gown that feels like it was made just for you. Even if you choose your shoes at the last minute. Because it was.

Did you know that just before launching my brand, I worked several seasons as a bridal alteration specialist for various boutiques?
I remember working on more than 76 dresses in three months !

Needless to say, I didn’t sleep a lot at the time. Do I sleep more now? Naah 😅

From the first sketch to the last fitting, through every appointment along the way. This is how a wedding dress becomes yours.

For the lovely Kate, we worked on a bespoke design inspired by the Simone, with a more open back, a delicate lace trim at the back, and a matching veil.

You can see that original sketch included a slit, but as we worked together, Kate and I decided we preferred to keep the front clean. So we let it go.

That is the beauty of true made to measure. The dress evolves with you, appointment after appointment, until it feels like it could never have been anything else. ❤️

Do you have a wedding coming up? Your dress is waiting to be sketched.

When the talented belgian singer Typh Barrow reached out to create one of her concert costumes, I couldn’t be more happy and had to say yes.

Before being a bridal designer, I am a fashion designer, and fashion has always moved me deeply. Plus I love a creative challenge !

I remember watching a documentary about Typh in 2023 and telling my partner: I would love to dress her one day. Her passion for fashion, her commitment to Belgian designers, and that voice… It was something else entirely.

A mutual friend introduced us (shout out to ) and she loved my work. The timing wasn’t right yet, but she kept her word.

Years later we were in a café, mood boards on the table, sketching the outline of what would become her stage outfit: a mini dress and matching leggings, made in a unique fabric I found in Paris. (I even called her mid-interview to approve it).

A stage costume is different from a wedding dress, and yet the process is the same: listening, sketching, adjusting, until it becomes real. The one difference? Practicality becomes everything. On stage, you sometimes have less than two minutes to change. Plus you have to keep the choreography in mind.

Watching Typh live was already out of this world. Only hearing her live will make you understand the true power of her voice and all its nuances. Some songs, I listened to with my eyes closed.

So you can imagine what it felt like to sit in that audience watching her wear something I made. Seeing how well we worked together made me incredibly happy and proud. Watching her outfit catch every beam of light, how beautifully she moved in it, how the costume became part of the performance…

I feel very lucky to have been part of this.
Milles Mercis pour ta confiance ! ❤️❤️

Lately at the atelier, patterns on the table, fabric unrolling, the sound of scissors cutting through silk… Several brides on my mind at once.

This is what a normal week looks like here.
Each one has her own silhouette, her own story, her own vision of The day.

And even though I juggle between projects, each dress gets its own time, its own focus, its own pattern cut for her and no one else.

It requires a lot of organisation. But there’s something I love about this rhythm.

The quiet concentration of it. The way the atelier feels when everything is in motion.

This is my happy place. ❤️

Patiently waiting to be worn…. A custom Toni and a custom Calixthe.
I actually believe they're talking to each other while I'm gone. 😅

From the sketch to Sara’s wedding day…
Such a beautiful human journey… ❤️

I imagined this gown together with Sara, step by step:
a strapless silhouette with a subtle mermaid skirt, an invisible corset, beaded Calais lace, and soft detached sleeves that gently frame the arms.

Every detail was carefully imagined, from the embroidered veil to the flowing train, to create a look that felt like true couture but also effortless… Even if it required countless hours of craftsmanship…

This is what bespoke truly means to me: creating something deeply personal and timeless.

If you dream of creating your own custom gown, I would love to welcome you at the atelier.
