The title of this is making me laugh – I hope the genius, over worked seamstresses don’t see it for a while! It is of course peak season for bridalwear and my lovely brides usually turn up for fittings a fair bit smaller then when they ordered the dress or even simply from the last time they tried it on!

The chapel in question is where they work tirelessly altering & customising dresses and creating all the extras that us a frustrated stylists demand. A sash here, some extra boning there. A few more crystals- often a few less!

Whilst I congratulate brides on their weight loss and  on their overall hotness and strength of will power the lovely Bush team of Janet, Annette, Elizabeth and Gen fix a rigid smile on their faces and whisk the dresses away to be readjusted. Again. Actually Gen – my Mum – something of an Edna Mode from The Incredibles –  is usually muttering to herself as she traipses back to the work room. Yet ask her to take it easy – well rather you than me!
