Calbourne Mill. Autumn 2003.

A selection of gowns from the Autumn 'Classical' collection by Elizabeth Smith Couture, Alex Hanson and Augusta Jones .

The 2003 (Classical Collection).

Two beautiful gowns from the Classical Collection, 'Athena' and Hermione'.

Left: is a photo of Fiona allowing you to see the intricate crystal bodice detail of the 'Hermione' two piece gown; and below left is a close up view of the 'Spring' beading design on the 'A' line, multi layered, tulle skirt. This is a truly feminine, 'light as a feather' design by Augusta Jones. Each element can be paired with a different skirt or bodice to give the Bride more flexibility of choice.

Above : is a photo of Belinda wearing the stunning 'Athena'. This gown in ivory Italian satin features sumptuous beading and embroidery with a unique 'wrapped-too' frontal skirt design and Cathedral train for real impact. WOW!

Above and Left is the lovely 'Ophelia' gown which has been newly designed with an 'A' line skirt to allow more clients to wear this modern, historical gown. The bodice features detachable sleeves of Irish lace finished with tiny crystals, and a strapless neckline. The bodice is fully corsetted and laced at the back. The 'A' line skirt is panelled with a small chapel length train. This is one of our most popular couture designs.

Below is a full length picture of the Ophelia two piece. This gown can be made with a fuller 'A' line or gathered skirt, a 'Fishtail' or straight skirt, or one with a detachable train. The sleeves can also be changed to the Brides own design. The choice is yours!

Below : A closer look here at the beading detail on the 'Empire' line bodice of the 'Minerva' gown.

Left : Belinda wears 'Minerva' and Italian satin 'Cross draped' gown in ivory. This gown has no train, this allows the Bride greater freedom of movement .The draped waist and skirt feature is unique, and emphasise the waist area. A simply beautiful princess line gown.

Left upper: Belinda shown wearing the 'Minerva' gown, and below left is Fiona wearing the 'Diana' two piece gown. This two piece design features a scoop necked ,draped bodice in ivory duchess silk satin overlaid with organza which is studded with tiny diamantees. The bodice is buttoned at the back and is fully corsetted. The skirt is a Grecian cross-over layered style in chiffon georgette with a small train.

Below & left, you will see a pink and ivory version of the 'Diana' bodice on a bodyform in the studio. These photos show how versatile this design is. The overlay is of blush pink English embroidered chiffon and the under material is ivory duchess satin.

Above: Fiona wears 'Helen', an historically inspired gown with a bustle back train gathered with small flowers and crystals. The scoop neckline is also decorated with small flowers and crystals. This gown is one for the romantics among you. The colour of the crystals can be changed to match your Bridesmaids colour if you wish. Ahh!

Above left: Fiona wears' Marina' an elegant cross draped, 'V' necked bodice in ivory satin by Augusta Jones; and a simple 'A' line skirt in chiffon georgette. We feel that a full length veil is correct with this style and have teamed it with a simple crystal tiara. Above right Belinda wears 'Flora' a slim, strapless 'A' line gown featuring delicate embroidery, beading and crystals with a unique draped waist detail. This gown gives a slim ,neat profile and is currently our most popular design for 2004.

Right ; Fiona wears 'Caroline' a modern strappy bodice with a draped 'crumb catcher' neckline. This bodice features 'Field Daisy' embroidery and beading and is from our Augusta Jones collection. We have matched it here with a chiffon 'A' line skirt. This is a modern and elegant design excellent for weddings abroad.

Most of the designs in our previous collections are still available.
