About

I’m passionate about using my skills to celebrate people; our differences in cultures, religions, backgrounds, interests and body shapes. With experience in the couture field of fashion; working on the red carpet, collaborating with celebrities and stylists, being behind photoshoots, personally sewing these gowns and managing a team of creatives, I fell in love with the work and decided to start my own small business. Life's an adventure and I'm so happy that I can celebrate that with you all!

I am so grateful for Holly! She crafted the most incredible custom gown/ensemble for my big day and she alleviated so much of the stress that typically comes with picking a dress! She was also so flexible and easy to communicate with, couldn’t recommend Holly more highly.

Thank you so much for your kind words Abbie! Still remember the first time we talked about your design, we knew we wanted to explore the idea of 3D flowers and incorporating colour in the second skirt. It was beautiful getting to know you and getting to throw flowers everywhere with you. All the best in your new season! xx HB

After searching in most of the bridal stores in Melbourne, I found it overwhelming and difficult to find the right dress for me as I was liking elements from different dresses. I decided that I would need to design and get my dress made, that's when I found Holly. The whole process was stressfree and easy. We discussed designs and materials and came up with something amazing that fitted into my budget, which is important for most brides. Holly was incredibly patient, hardworking and had a great eye for detail! In the end I had an incredible couture dress and I received so many compliments on the day! Holly was an amazing person to work with, as well as being a genuinely beautiful person I highly recommend her. Thank you Holly!

Finding Holly really was a dream come true. I initially struggled with finding a dress and didn't even do the usual shopping trip to try a few on. I definitely knew what I didn't want, I just couldn't find the right designer to help me decide what I did want. Holly help me do that! Her experience and knowledge is second to none, and she made 100% sure that I was happy with my dress. I felt amazing in my dress, it was super flattering and ticked all the boxes.

There are a few options out there when it comes to getting your perfect dress though pairing that dress with a budget in mind can sometimes be difficult. Off-the-rack dresses are generally more affordable because they are constructed overseas with polyester fabrics. Additional costs for alterations are commonly paid with off-the-rack dresses though and can be up to $1k depending on how much work needs to be done to properly faltter ytour figure.

What style of wedding dress would be best for a short bride?

Holly Butler

Hi!
There are so many different body shapes out there and every different shape is beautiful. I always suggest to brides that a perfectly fitted gown flatters your figure the best and most comfortable way. A couture or custom gown is made to your measurements with your body shape in mind from the start. To create the illusion of height I would design a gown that "flows" from head to toe - meaning there is none or limited changes in fabric on the vertical axis of a dress.
hope this helps!
