Our professional couturier, Angy Morton, will create for you that special, individual garment you have always dreamed of, something unique, eye-catching and a statement of who you are which cannot fail to impress! "Keep it simple" is her favorite motto but "add as much detail, personality and flair as you can". She adds: "Creativity is an integral part of us as individuals. Without creativity we wouldn't be where we are today as a society. The tricky part is how we can express that creativity in fashion, architecture, jewellery and so on. From my experience, it can only be achieved with considerable patience and skill."

Everybody likes to appear elegant, to be in vogue and to wear an outfit with a simple line that enhances their appearance. It is not an easy task.

 That is why the skills and experience of the professional designer are vital. Even when they are performing the impossible, and are wizards with the fabrics, an outfit ‘cannot speak for itself' without your own, individual input. That is why Angy usually requests a consultation session to find about more about you. Individual input also includes choosing the right hairstyle and the right accessories to add the icing to cake.
 
Angy's style is all embracing; influenced by anything that comes her way. Whether it is the natural landscape of her home in the English Lake District, the lines of a building, the delicate shades of a wildflower, or even the pattern of veins in a leaf, her inspiration is sure to transcribe such hints of everyday beauty into each individual design and outfit she crafts.
 
It is very difficult to select just one out of the many artistic styles, which have shaped our society, from mediaeval times to the present. Each of them has something fresh to offer providing you know what you are looking for. Angela's personal favourite? "Art Nouveau. Beautiful and Feminine. The details are amazing. Some people will dismiss these designs straight away because they are asymmetrical rather than geometric and logical, and may appear complex or fussy. However, as you look closer you realise that art nouveau designs comprise sensitive, soft and sinuous lines, which make up naturally, organic and floral patterns. In my opinion these are just the right 'lines' for a unique and outstanding outfit."
