Introducing The Couture Bridal Gowns from Cicicici's blog

Before we join into that conversation, please allow me to share just a little about this beautiful editorial shoot of an assortment of gowns; these images were captured by talented Cheshire based wedding photographer, Emmylou, at an excellent Palladian home designed and built-in 1761 for that Leicester family, who lived at Tabley for 700 years. I adore how Emma's modern and contemporary designs look so at home and thus glamorous and complicated in the context of this historical and stately setting. Emma informs us more.

"Using floral embroidery to soften the dramatic crinoline structures, each ball gown wedding dress boasts decorative features for example pearl beading, feathers, organza petals, ruffles, and handmade beaded tassels for any truly striking finish."

Emma, please introduce yourself…

My Name is Emma Beaumont and I started my company around seven years back. I turned thirty this past year and I reside in Knutsford with my young boy Maximums who's two and a half. My house is a two-minute walk from my studio which I would also class as my vacation home. I started the company in 2013, using my mum, Sarah.

Tell us the way you started in bridal fashion and what drew you to bridal particularly?

I started my company after university, I graduated from the University of the creative arts in Rochester, Kent. I studied Fashion Atelier, a diploma centered on the couture techniques of sewing and learning the basic principles of garment construction. After graduating with this knowledge I began sewing for family and friends. My first workspace ended up being at the back of the nail salon, where I would frequently get women thinking about having dresses made after entering the salon.

My mum also worked in bridal throughout my degree, I would help her with sample sales and become familiar with dealing with brides. I would say the bridal bug got me once I discovered lace. I love laborious handwork, texture, and dissecting fabrics with bridal you can explore and test out beautiful items to create something individual and unique. Go


What would you love most about being employed in the bridal fashion world?

It wasn't only the beautiful dresses or even the glamour that got me inspired, but the feeling if you notice that person wearing their perfect dress, looking just how they imagined. That is what keeps me going and dealing so hard, diving into the bride's mind and attempting to capture just how the to envision is to appear and bringing that alive. Sometimes it’s not the dress they can see, only the overall mood or essence of fashion they wish to portray, seeing their face if you have brought it all alive is quite special. Bespoke is my passion.

What would you think makes your brand so attractive to brides?

That each dress is bespoke and completely individual for them. From creating their very own fabric to creating, everything is unique and individual to every client.

Where would you start with each new collection – are you able to talk to us using your process?

The fabric. I always begin with the fabric or even the texture also it grows after that. There is a silhouette that I prefer to keep as under laying theme however building onto that to produce something unique. The team and I can create different samples and prototypes and critique them together, developing together once we go.

Would you say your designs are for any variety of body shapes?

Being predominantly bespoke I have been employed by everyone shape available and I feel it's important to realize that everybody isn’t a size six and six-foot-tall.

Can you share a little about your work/creative space around?

Over yesteryear year we have attempted to bring some life towards the studio. I love the area to seem like a work room and like each bride to determine where the dresses are made and also the girls at the office when they come to every appointment. The fitting room has enormous mirrors and rails and rails of huge fabric samples, you can hear the humming from the machines and girls employed in the other rooms the area feels alive.

What can you be doing should you weren't running your design business?

I could be thinking about how I could start my very own design business.

What would you love most about dealing with brides?

No two brides are ever the same, every day holds a brand new challenge.
