Welcome to the

Unique Couture

and

Unique Couture Tuition


website, a site dedicated to my bespoke ladieswear business and independent dressmaking, tailoring and pattern cutting tuition.

Unique Couture

As a designer/maker, qualified to advanced City & Guilds level with many years experience, I can help you realise your dream of high quality, unique, well fitted garments using best quality fabrics. You can go to the Gallery to see examples of my work which encompasses all aspects of garment construction from tailoring to lingerie, traditional to avant-garde, day, evening, special occasion wear, non-traditional bridal wear, children's wear and hand knitting.

Unique Couture Tuition

Having taught in further education for several years, I was aware not only of the gradual withdrawal of funding and courses but of the lack of specific, independent dressmaking teaching locally. In response to this I set up Unique Couture Tuition which is registered with Learn Direct as a Learning Provider.

Workshops are highly practical with the number of participants usually limited to 5 to ensure you, and I, get the most from them. Venues are in the village of Skidby near Beverley in the East Riding of Yorkshire, famous for its windmill and giant Yorkshire puddings and in the historic 'Avenues' area of Hull. Both venues are easy to get to and have parking and disabled access facilities.

The current programme is detailed in the Workshop area of the website.

I am also able to offer one-to-one tuition locally and this has proved to be popular. The session is tailored to meet your requirements, this could perhaps be to get the most from your sewing machine or overlocker, garment block drafting and fitting or help with a specific project or technique.

If you require any more information to would like discuss your requirements please do not hesitate to contact me.
