Your wedding dress shouldn’t just be for one day. Turn your dress into a work of art that can be worn again and again, and become an heirloom for generations to come. Through a 100% natural botanical textile dyeing process, the alchemy of steam infuses the pigments from your wedding flowers into the fibres of your dress. A zero-waste approach to breathe new life into your wedding dress, preserving the memory of your day and celebrating a time of transition.

Honour this moment as you walk across one of life’s greatest thresholds and step into a new era. Your dress becomes an artefact of the woman you were and the woman you are becoming. The process of transforming one’s dress — a metaphor for the inner evolution that is unfolding.

Each bridal wear journey is bespoke and unique, customised to authentically express your essence. An intimate partnership with the flowers, working in harmony with Nature and her cycles, transformed through a dyeing process that is free from any chemicals or toxins.

Our botanical dyeing process uses post-life flowers (dried or fresh) from your wedding, and is best suited to 100% silk fabrics. To avoid exposure to pesticides, we only work with organic flowers and can support you early on in your wedding planning to work with suitable suppliers for your dress and flowers.

In an era of fast-fashion, wedding dresses made of petroleum-based fibres, AI everything, and a single-use society that expects constant perfection, our botanical bridal wear journeys are an antidote. A return to Nature: All natural, biodegradable materials. Zero toxins. A circular approach that takes what is used and ‘dead’ and births something new and beautiful. Raw, real, authentic expression of Nature. Our pieces are living organisms that evolve overtime, interacting with the elements and potentially changing shades and hues across time, just like us.

Prior to your wedding day, we will make sure the fibres of your dress are suitable and can support you with sourcing from organic florists and advisory on the most suitable types of flowers to ensure appropriate dye capacity.

After your wedding, you can have your dress altered to suit your preferences before mailing the dress and semi- or fully-dried wedding flowers to our studio in Rye, England.

Using your flowers as the dye materials, we will transform your dress over a 2-4 week period, dry, steam, and return to you via mail. Local pickup/ drop-off is available if you live nearby.

As our studio is in England, this service is best for those based in the UK. Production on location in EU and other countries is possible, additional fees apply.
