OVERVIEW

Susan's passion, honesty, expertise, and attention to detail, will make having your wedding gown made by her, an exciting and memorable experience.

Wedding dress designer, Susan Ogg established her custom made bridal and fashion label in East Brisbane in 1989. Now with more than 30 years of experience, she has become highly regarded and recognised for her quality workmanship in bridal, eveningwear, and tailored day wear.

Susan is passionate about creating a gown which will flatter and enhance any figure, and uses silk fabrics, and French and Italian laces, to achieve a really luxurious finish. Susan does not provide a collection of standard gown styles, so no two gowns are the same.

Having a gown made to measure means you can have a unique gown which totally reflects your style, and has all the details you are inspired by, but haven't been able to find in a ready to wear dress. Susan spends a lot of time working through a bride's ideas, and melds them with her own, to ensure the finished gown will make the bride look exactly as she had imagined.

Susan can create bridal wear that can be as traditional, vintage, or contemporary in style as you wish. She uses traditional tailoring techniques, beginning with a calico toile for each garment, followed by about 5 fittings. This allows you to see your dress evolve, providing absolute peace of mind that it is just as imagined, from fit and style, to the final hand beading.

If you are looking for a personal approach,  where the same person who discusses your initial ideas, also sews your gown, then Susan will be delighted to work with you to create the perfect dress for your special occasion. 

Thank you for viewing some of my real brides on their special day.

About

I began this business over 30 years ago. My passion and inspiration comes from working with beautiful fabrics, and my wish to ensure each gown really flatters the figure it is made for, so that each bride will feel fabulous on her wedding day. I have been working from the same building in East Brisbane for the last 21 years, and am well established in the local business community. My honesty and willingness to "go the extra mile" to ensure it is perfect, is reflected in my customer reviews.

FAQ

Work will not begin until 2-3 months out from the date of your wedding, and the dress is adjusted throughout the making process until it is finished. 

I begin the process of actually cutting and sewing your dress 2-3 months out from the date of your wedding, depending on the complexity of the job and how far away you live. You will need to have a booking with me many months before than though. 

As soon as possible. I am usually booked out 5 - 8 months in advance depending on the month of your wedding. Remember your dress won’t be made until much closer to the date of your wedding, so it will fit like a glove.

If you are having your dress made to measure by a professional like myself,  here in Australia, NO, as adjusting the dress to fit is part of the process.

When you engage a Bridal Seamstress who has been in the industry for 30 years, and pay thousands of dollars for a “one of a kind” wedding gown, there are reasonable expectations… Having the gown created in a cheaper fabric first, usually calico, with all major alterations made to this dress as it would form the pattern pieces for the gown. All creased fabric for the gown would be ironed prior to being cut, to ensure the size, style and drop of the fabric is accurate and alterations are kept to a minimum. Just the bodice was made in calico, adjustments were noted, but we did not have a second fitting with the calico bodice to check the alterations were correct and they weren’t. The remainder of the dress was cut straight from un-ironed fabric, including lace we bought in from France which was disastrous. Nothing but a nightmare experience.

Susan knows her craft. Getting a dress made is different to buying off the rack - you have to trust your designer, and I trusted Susan 100%. Her guidance, advice, artistic flair were all invaluable. My dress was absolutely gorgeous.
