The wedding took place at the Maritime Museum in Greenwich,
South East London, on 1st December. The request was for a long Dress Coat that would be worn all day. The surroundings at the museum are very grand so we decided on a dramatic outfit.
The Dress Coat was made of shot black and green silk dupion, with a lining of lime green silk. The bride wore a black crepe de chine dress underneath with a lime green ruffled trim at the hem. Black braid frogging was made to fasten the coat and a self-colour ruffled trim finished off the sleeves and bodice. A neat stand-up gently curved collar completes the outfit.
