I mentioned a new designer in my coloured wedding gowns post and I was quite taken with her gorgeous style. Jennifer Gifford Designs.

Jennifer started designing gowns for her dolls when she was eight and after much travel, study and adventures, Jennifer began working for some of the country’s top bridal designers before branching out on her own two years ago. This year she plans to launch her own online store with a range of bespoke gowns and accessories – all handmade by Jennifer.

I love how Jennifer uses really simple and classic shapes in her work but also branches out into unusual colour and fabric combinations – dusty pink laces, bold florals and funky accents like little belts and crystal embellishments.
