We’ve gathered some gorgeous models, fabulous hair and makeup artists and a wonderful photographer to shoot a few looks from our latest range of corsets.
We thought you might like to see a sneak peek from behind the scenes of a photoshoot. These aren’t the official pictures – we’ll show you those as soon as we get them, but this is a fun taster of what it’s like on set!
We’ve just done little straw poll on Twitter and Facebook to see how you feel when wearing a corset.
Not sure we could put it any better than this really!
Liberty prints are the creation of Arthur Lasenby Liberty, who was born in 1843. In 1874 he started his own business with the belief that he could change the look of home wares and fashion selling ornaments, fabric and objets d’art from Japan and the East.
By 1885 his store became London’s most fashionable place to shop with the rich, famous and fashionable visiting. His iconic Liberty fabrics were used for clothing and furnishings.
We’ve always loved making corsets, so we’ve decided to expand our range from purely bridal wear to include corsets and skirts.
Specialising in one-off pieces, we hope you’ll love wearing our made-to-measure corsets. They’re perfect for special occasions, or even just as a treat!

We have plenty of experience in making corsets and skirts for brides. Designing and creating the focal piece of your wedding day is what we do best and we love it!
There are so many benefits to having your wedding dress made for you, including just how comfortable a corset is to wear to the made-to-measure fit that will look perfect and be so comfortable to wear.
We thought we’d tell you a little bit about the techniques we use at Jackie Thomspn Couture to help make your wedding dress completely unique!

Winter weddings can be full of magic, splendor and festivity! Think mistletoe, ice-kissed branches lining the aisle, fairy lights and crystal chandeliers dangling from the ceiling. And, if you’re lucky, snow!
We’ve been thinking of our favourite things about winter weddings and we’d love to hear what you love best about them too.
We’ve just about recovered from showing our collection of era-inspired dresses at the Save The Date Wedding Event With A Difference.
We’d decided to go with the vintage theme as it’s so popular at the moment and we really wanted to show what we could do. A lot of our brides like to incorporate a hemline, waistline or embroidery detail from an era. As well as making your dress unique, it keeps it timeless too.
All the models wore the same lace gloves, birdcage veils and bright pink shoes. And what matches pink shoes? Yes – bright pink nails!

Roll out those lazy hazy crazy days of summer… what better season to get married in than this? The birds serenade your garden party, you have your pick of the blooms in your bouquet and everybody’s happy.
We’ve been thinking about just what it is we love about the sunniest of seasons and why it’s so perfect to get married in.
