Melbourne designer Gwendolynne Burkin captured my heart many moons again when I spotted an amazing creation she’d designed.

With a fresh website and beautiful photography, it was only fitting to introduce her to the readers of Polka Dot Bride.

Gwendolynne designs only on “gut reaction and instinct”. With a background in pattern making, Gwendolynne uses exquisite cuts, stunning fabrics and creativity.

There’s a sense of dramatic, feminine elegance to her designs – the spiderweb of lace, the draping of the beaded headpieces that is simply beautiful.
