  2. 58 - Help! My wedding dress shop ordered a dress that's too big, and they don't do fittings in-house.

    58 - Help! My wedding dress shop ordered a dress that's too big, and they don't do fittings in-house.

    In this episode, we respond to a bride who has already bought a dress from another boutique. Unfortunately upon collection of the dress, she found out it had been ordered in a standard size based on her largest measurement, making it far too big everywhere else. The bride now has the challenge of finding an alterations specialist or seamstress who can make this dress fit. Emma gives her advice for this bride, as well as offering tips and advice for brides who are just starting dress shopping, so that they know what to ask for and what to look for before choosing a bridal boutique and committing to a dress. Leah and Emma also discuss their upcoming shoots for Nortier, sharing the challenges of creating interesting, effective Lookbook photography alongside fun and eye-catching, creative editorial imagery.

    56 - Is bridal losing touch with reality?

    Emma responds to a thought-provoking post we saw from E&W Couture last week, an independent Welsh bridal designer who shared their experiences after exhibiting at New York Bridal week. Is bridal losing touch with reality, and are trends moving faster than engagements? Listen to our 56th episode today! We also discuss the disinformation being shared about bridal across social media platforms, and why we're no longer chasing 'viral posts' and big numbers. Finally, we welcome more questions from both brides and bridal businesses - we want to share content that will be helpful and inspirational for you, so please get in touch with your suggestions!
