When a national wedding magazine recommends you for a job, and the Fashion house in question is your current bridal crush…..
well I applied in around 0.2 seconds…. got the job and my work took over House of Ollichon,s website. I designer 2 looks for our 2 models Andrea (Brunette) and Kirstine (Blonde), The first was a natural look and each girl rocked tousled curls, followed a lip change to Red lips (who doesn’t love red lips. We finished the day with a stronger look on Andrea.
Go to the House of Ollichon Website to view the full collection with additional images.
Heres a little extra info about House of Ollichon:
The awarded House of Ollichon is the only dress-less bridal collection offering brides and bridesmaids a range of luxury bridal jumpsuits and two-pieces all handmade in London.
Using beautiful French laces and British embellishments the House of Ollichon bridal collection promises to offer something for all those who feel a dress is simply too much fuss on their wedding day…
Hannah Ollichon founded the company in 2015 after her own Town Hall wedding, “A big dress seemed too fussy for Islington Town Hall and then the pub but I still wanted something special. There was nothing out there for the ‘chilled’ bride that bridged the gap between high street and big bridal.”
As Hannah experienced herself, bridal trends are changing rapidly; we want to feel relaxed and comfortable without compromising on feeling incredibly special, being able to dance like crazy and not spend a fortune on one outfit for one day.
House of Ollichon offers all of this with a modern experience, a personal touch and affordable luxury. We hope you find all you’re looking for.
Last summer I met with Jocelyn and the team from Exclusive magazine with the Nottingham born tennis pro. No setting could be more ideal than Nottingham Castle, where I watched Joss do pull up on a tree and generally be a fun and active person.
As Joss doesn’t normally wear makeup, I did what I know best… Natural makeup, Joss is a beautiful soul inside and out and I throughly enjoyed my time with her. You will be seeing more from me in Exclusive magazine as I’ve been asked to be a monthly columnist, watch this space!
