With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes :)


My latest lovely bride, who had a gorgeous vintage style wedding with a mad hatter's tea party style reception!






She went for a classic updo which gave her lots of volume and really showed off her bone structure and the pretty sweet heart neckline.


My next bride has chosen something very very very unusual!!!!!  I can't wait till her wedding next month and I can show you what she went for her special day :) xxx

Weddings, weddings, weddings!

Tis the season to get married :) I love doing weddings, that special day where you can look like a gorgeous princess and where awsume things like tiara's and white silk ballgowns!

I adore doing bridal hair and make up, seeing girls squeal at how elegant they look makes me smile and feel all warm and fizzy inside.

Here are a couple of my beautiful brides and bridesmaids I have had the delight to work with......













Many more to come :)

Lots of Love

Above is my Ever After costume. 
Below is the Original from the Film! 

More Costumes....


My RAT Man Costume from the Opera - Mozart's The Magic Flute.

Here is the Design - by Marie Jean Lecca.  


I had so much dying and printing and working into the textiles on this costume!

I FINISHED MY DEGREE!!!!!!!

I am so exited , and very very tired to have just graduated from my 3 year degree in Costume Interpretation for Film and Theatre. (sounds posh but its basically professional fancy dress!)

Just had my degree show where all my years work was displayed. (photos below)


This costume is an Interpretation of the 'JUST BREATHE' gown from the film Ever After. I hand painted and beaded the fabric, and made the wings myself too out of piano wire and tulle net. 


More much better photos are coming soon promise.....


Lots of Love Johannah-Emily xx

Photographs in the Forest

I have been super super busy in my very last final term of Uni. Getting all my costumes ready for my degree show in London. This week I went on a Photoshoot with my lovely friends Emily & Sophie into the woods with some of my work.



Heres what we did.........





I did the hair and make up too. Using mainly my Urban Decay NAKED palette and SLEEK peach blusher. 

Please take a look at the photographers website for some AMAZING images ---
