Hello! I am Laura Gillam, a freelance bridal seamstress based in Bristol, UK. With over 15 years of professional sewing experience and having worked for sustainable fashion labels in London, carried out bridal alterations in New York, and created numerous bespoke bridal gowns for woman all over the UK, I am now pleased to offer high end bridal alterations from my Bristol studio.

I am looking forward to welcoming brides into my studio who have weddings in January 2027 onwards. Slots for next year are filling up fast but I do still have some space so please get in touch. If you are interested in working with me, then please contact me via email at the first opportunity with a photo of your dress, wedding date and details of what you think needs to be altered.

I don’t have any availability for general alterations and repairs for the foreseeable future. Please try Jokoto or Sew2Happy instead.

Please note I am now based in St Anne’s, Bristol, I only carry out bridal alterations, and fittings are strictly by appointment only.
