Sarah Shepherd Dressmaker

Nothing short of a perfect dressmaker. Sarah is the ultimate professional with the biggest eye for detail, expertise and solution focused attitude. She made the whole experience seamless from start to finish. This was a major bespoke project, adding custom sleeves, mesh back with buttons and various other details. This dress went from pretty to perfect. What a talent you are! Such reasonable prices in comparison to local providers and me and my large family would never go anywhere else for all things dressmaker!Thank you SO much from me and the bridesmaids too. X

Couldn’t recommend Sarah enough! She altered my dress to fit perfectly. Great turn around time and was really happy with the pricing. Was able to WhatsApp her pics of me trying it on beforehand to show where areas needed taking in, which was great to get an idea of price and what needed doing before even meeting her. Had so many compliments on the day and Sarah made me feel so at ease during my fittings. Such a lovely lady!

I was a bit nervous before going to see Sarah, as I had a very basic idea of what the dress needed, and I had never had any major alterations to clothes before. Sarah was great: very friendly, very experienced, she knew exactly what would suit the dress and me best, and she made it look amazing!

Well what can I say…Sarah is an absolute star at what she does.I contacted Sarah 2 weeks before my wedding asking if she could please help me with some alterations to my dress as well as adding a pearl belt - she helped bring my dream dress to life in less than a week. She is so talented and also so kind and friendly with her approach towards the alteration appointments. I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough.I am so happy I go in touch with her when I did and that she was able to help with my dress.Thanks so much,Savannah ⭐️

Sarah was amazing from start to finish so easy to contact and helpful when I wasn’t sure how to explain what I needed altering. Made the experience less stressful and finished with plenty of time to spare. I got so many compliments for the work she did my Nan who used to be a dress maker was very complimentary. Couldn’t recommend her enough.

Sarah is such a friend and talented lady, she makes you feel at ease in all the appointments, Sarah gave me good advice on how long i should wait to get my dress altered after having my baby.My dress felt amazing all day and i had lots of comments on it!Thank you Sarah!

Sarah did a fantastic job at altering my many layered Wedding dress! The dress fittings were great, Sarah made me feel so at ease, she also gave lots of helpful advice and suggestions. Would thoroughly recommend!

I cannot thanks Sarah enough for altering my wedding dress. From start to finish, Sarah showed such professionalism, enthusiasm, kindness and creative talent and I couldn’t have picked anyone better to care and alter my dress for me. The fit was absolutely perfect and Sarah ensured that I felt comfortable and offered her advice and suggestions which really did make the dress shine on the day. So many compliments on the wedding day itself such as, ‘breathtaking’, and all credit to Sarah who really made the wedding dress I chose a perfect fit for me. Thank you Sarah, I am so, so grateful and I can 100% recommend your services.

Sarah was absolutely wonderful. She took a dress that was several sizes too big and made it fit like a glove. I loved wearing my dress and the work Sarah had done ahead of the big day was utterly seamless and helped me feel the best I could possibly feel on the day. Her attention to detail meant the beauty of the dress was retained and enhanced. Sarah was so lovely and welcoming at her studio and really made me feel at ease. Sarah’s experience was really showcased as, with an expert eye and a few pins, she was able to get everything she needed to complete the alterations. Sarah had a very speedy turnaround and kept me up to date with everything going on. My only regret was not coming to Sarah directly from the start to commission one of her gorgeous bespoke gowns. Thank you Sarah!

Sarah was super helpful with my dress, made it the perfect length and inserted panels into the side where the fabric wasn’t quite right. She fixed some loose threads too as I had a sample gown and had such an eye for detail. She was friendly & the appointments were quick & fun! Thank you :)
