So the main thing was to to do makeup that enhanced their natural beauty rather than painting
natural painting beauty on on a face that's the way I like to approach makeup to interpret dreams and use dresses that were appropriate
gave me a lot of freedom in in terms of the choice of artistic expression of
dress that I chose to use so we could have
her dreaming of wearing a red dress which is perhaps a little wicked and not very conventional and
And also a gold dress with big hoops and then seeing herself swinging on a swing
Was very romantic generally Australians have much warmer skin tones. That is more orange yellow skin
pigmentation they don't have the the typical Irish or English complexions with the
the ivory or almost blue skin tones, so I
Generally use a lot of yellow
Foundations or yellow based foundations if you are having a wedding and you want your makeup to stay fresh and look good the whole day
Rather blot the face with tissues then use powder powder every so often if you're feeling cool and your face is
Not moist we turn down the the sort of hairstyles that we did
We made them very simple and almost as though the model or the girl had done the hair herself
That way it didn't detract from the glamour of the dresses
And they want something that people are going to really remember and a lot of things that we do are very simple
But they might be very big the first thing I ask them is what they don't like I just by knowing what they don't like
It's almost quite obvious what they will like. I like people to recognize though that it's not
It's not run-of-the-mill. I try to combine the modern lines and
The modern feel of today's general fashion into the bridal, but still keeping the lovely old world
look and feminine feel to the gowns that
Heirs and graces is known for a lot of 60s influence still coming into the bridal even in the full gowns
The 60s look is still there with the little short
Set in sleeves and a lot of emphasis on cleavage and necklines and highlighting all up around the neck
I think our girls for 94 are certainly going to be very feminine and very romantic
Classically different end of the market. We're not fringe
We're not
Basic we are different and do a quality. That's probably the major thing where it's it's people do
associate the name with quality and hopefully I'm showing that the
Australians can't do it as well as the Europeans

I looked at fabric and lace and the mixture of different
Different textures I looked at pretty pretty dresses with big skirts and
Off flattering off the shoulder necklines things that can tell me color. Yes and for bridesmaids to it's very flattering. It's pretty it's
Probably easier to wear than white the mother of the bride
Is best dressed in for daytime weddings or early evening a suit a two-piece suit
That's always very smart and in a color that complements the rest of the bridal party not
Not one that competes with the bride or is particularly strong
I like pink for the mother of the bride as well
I've chosen a few pink pink outfits here, but pale blue is also lovely and it's a it's a favorite
it is a traditional favorite color and
Cream there are lots of options for bridesmaids
I've chosen here some short dresses in satin and
There in pink. I've also chosen some long
chiffon dresses for the bridesmaids as well
And that's a if if the bridesmaids are tall and lean that's a lovely style to wear
Particularly if the bride is wearing a full skirt it complements
Her dress as far as the hair and makeup is concerned
traditional being soft colors soft hairdos
There's still a bit of curl there
Placed very sort of loosely up so there's bits dropping
Around the side like curls and so through the back as well the colors that we've used in makeup
again using very natural tones browns and creams and
link lips being
More still a pink pink brown
Sometimes using a little bit of gloss even using now polish
which is like a french nude which is just an off-white it just gives the nails a bit of a
glaze
And by doing that it just freshens everything up keeping it very soft and flattering
By keeping the base of the makeup the foundations very close as close as you can to the natural skin tones
So you're not really so changing too much there and just keeping
Detailing a bit of eyebrow
Maybe just the eyes whether it's
Strengthening the eyelid the eyelashes and a little bit of blush just to
Make them look fresh and glowing and healthy
I thought of white and white roses in the flower arrangements and silver white crockery
And I updated this look from typical damascene
Or Irish linen and used a tablecloth that is decorated with little hearts or painted with little hearts
And napkins to match well this cake was rather wonderful it's three tiers and a new design
It's something that Sweet Art hasn't done before and decorated with hearts which again is really sweet for a wedding
And roses open roses full-blown roses nothing beats them
We're looking at simple lines the a line the princess line and the empire line of terms that have been quoted for many years
The soft fabrics are coming through the chiffons the georgettes the crepes
But still falling from very exotic laces used as trims
And I think that that's the look that's coming through very strongly
I think the brides are becoming more and more simple you know I really like to dress my brides more around their personality and their lifestyle
I mean a bride's a bride and she's the VIP for the day so it's still a very important image
But just more simplistic I think really softer fabrics more romantic
We stand by our product we make sure that the product is perfect and we respect and we're always there if anybody has a problem

We just decided to do something a bit more pared down and more simple and more in keeping with what's happening with fashion at the moment
Very soft fluid shapes softer fabrics you know more relaxed looking
To keep their own place well I really like the idea of the loose hair as I said so I've been more inclined to use maybe a mousse for styling
And structuring their hair that way whether it's using hot rollers or a blow dryer and then allowing hair to just fall as an actual way it gets to be worn out
Maybe secured with a few pins
Keeping with what's happening with fashion it's good to use different combinations of things you know combining like a knit with a satin or
Like a crinkly fabric with a smooth fabric or a sheer fabric with a very strong fabric it's an interesting way of playing textures together and I think it makes it more modern more interesting
I looked at the girls and I saw that they could all carry more of a smoky eye which I feel is a little bit more of what's happening today
And more of a very pale lip very much just a bit of a lip line and mainly a bit of gloss
I don't like putting a bright white with an off white I think it's important to match that colour up and it really depends on the line you know
For the longer line things I found a smaller heel was better or even a flat heel and I think if someone's getting something made I think it's important that they actually match the colour of their shoe
I think testing many ranges for the lipsticks these days is much easier because there's much broader range and much cheaper too so it's in the price range for a lot of people without having to spend an enormous amount of money
Testing it and making sure it sort of suits the complexion as well the colours that I quite like to use are really light and natural almost pinky browns and a lot of the ranges actually hold that down
We approached Tracy Deep who came up with the idea of using natural organic shapes like leaves and pods and things like that which was very much suitable to the type of clothing that we were working with and we thought that that was better and more modern

There are a lot of big dresses around with legomutton sleeves and huge big skirts and hooped underskirts
that look wonderful in a ballroom type setting.
Before this I chose Victoria Spring Jewellery, crowns on everyone and matching neck pieces and earrings.
And most of that jewellery is made from old jewellery or old porcelain.
Renaissance is again influenced by the clothing.
We've actually gone for very natural colours, a colour particularly called nude which is almost like an off white, like a pink.
And white and pink both used on the eyes and the lip becoming more of a plum.
Men's wear I chose was tails, very traditional I guess, but perfectly matching the beautiful big gowns.
And I chose white tie and white cumpans to go with the black tails.
We've sort of designed these wonderful jackets that are long and with narrow trousers and brightly coloured waistcoats. They're a very interesting look.
The hair this time has actually been set quite firmly to create a ringlet,
whether that's using hot sticks or pin curling pieces using the size of our finger to wrap the hair around to create that curl.
Some had embroidery on the front, some are beaded and latticed which is very pretty and very flattering because they hug the figure.
And some lace up and that's wonderful because it shapes your figure and makes you look even better on the day.
The bod is essentially four collections aimed at a particular age group from sort of good general basics through to streetwear through to really hip.
We really do cover all those age groups quite thoroughly.
People are tending to deformalise a little and wearing a dark suit instead of the traditional dinner suit.
Also I think we've been firm favourites for some time as going away clothing.
Casual clothing has been our foray for some years and I think people have used it in that regard.
We use only the best materials. We use silk, lace. I use all leather in the shoes.
There's no plastic or cardboard of any kind. We make them the same way they would be made 200 years ago.
I'd say we're the last place that everyone tries. It seems to me they come to me in a rush and say I can't find anything whatsoever that matches my gown or my outfit and please help me.
So I take into consideration the colours and the fabrics and whatever and we make something exclusively tailored and usually one off for the customer.
Thank you.
