Dav Sehra created the company and is an established pattern cutter with more than 10 years of experience in the fashion industry. He decided to create his own business to provide heritage fabrics from English and Italian mills. The company, which specialises in made-to-measure suits, offers a laid-back atmosphere and calming space for grooms to search for the perfect attire. The team works with each client to discuss styling, fabric and cut options while considering their budget – they know how important it is to find the perfect look.

I love reading all about local weddings to discover how the couples met, when they popped the question and all about their big day. Sophie and Andrew’s wedding at the Old Palace in Hatfield Park was stunning and featured a neutral colour palette and plenty of foliage. The bride’s dress by Essense of Australia really stood out to me; I love the intricate detailing and off-the-shoulder style. Sophie says, “I thought I would go for a mermaid-style dress, but the gowns didn’t give me the feeling I expected to have once I tried them on.” She adds, “Against the odds, I tried on a huge sparkly dress and instantly knew it was the gown I wanted – nothing else seemed to compete.” The bride didn’t want to take any attention away from the dress and opted for some dainty drop earrings from Swarovski.
