Marie Olesen has made me a beautiful outfit with fabric from Linton Tweeds in Carlisle and silk lining from another British company. It consists of a fitted dress (short sleeves and skirt), together with a lovely jacket. The whole experience from design choosing, first fitting and then subsequent finish was terrific. Marie made it all so quickly and it fits beautifully. I can thoroughly recommend her dressmaking skills and patience.
Had a few suits made by Marie, very professionally made and very well done. Thankyou Janet R
We had two Bridesmaid's dresses altered by Marie, not only were they beautifully and professionally completed, but we were also made to feel really welcome and at ease. Dresses were completed for us at short notice and we would thoroughly recommend Marie and will have no hesitation using her dressmaking / alteration services again.
A brilliant job done on my bridesmaid dress at really short notice - Marie had it ready the same day and she did excellent work. I would absolutely recommend Marie!
Thanks to Marie for altering my top beautifully. A quick, efficient and friendly service :)

Marie's attention to detail is amazing and you really feel like a princess when she looks after you. As soon as you step into her studio, you will feel at home and you will know that everything is possible!
I've had two tailoring jobs done by Marie, and the service and quality of the work have been just great. I'd have no hesitation at all in recommending her to others - whatever your tailoring needs might be.
