Schiffer with bespoke cape for Helen

by

Helen wore the incredible Schiffer wedding dress for her wedding to Declan, which took place at Burningfold Manor in Dunsfold.

Schiffer is a romantic, vintage inspired ballgown wedding dress with a fitted strapless bodice with straight neckline. The dropped waist finishes in a point to the front, above a full skirt with pleats for added volume and drama. The skirt is finished with a split to the front, perfect for showing off a pair of statement heels.

Schiffer was the perfect choice for Helen's elegant manor house wedding. To style her look, Helen added a sheer floaty cape with high neckline, also by Nortier, along with a sleek up-do, timeless pearl earrings and a bouquet of classic creamy peonies.

Helen's thoughts

" I had tried on so many dresses but when I put on the Schiffer dress it was clear that this was the firm favourite so far amongst the group. I had used each appointment up until that moment to really refine what sort of dress I wanted, and I had landed on 'something classic but with a twist' in my head. The classic silhouette and shape of the dress, but with the dropped waist, really felt like it fit the brief. Moreover, with the addition of the cape, I knew I had hit the nail on the head."

90’s Inspired editorial at Botley Hill Barn

by

Part look book, part editorial. For this shoot, Emma took inspiration from all over the 90s. Patricia Field’s styling of Carrie Bradshaw, oversized corsages, wild touches of colour and exquisite peonies were mixed with theatrical references.
Showgirls, Pierrots and theatrical flourishes with a nod to Emma Corrin style by Harry Lambert. The shoot was very organic with flowers deconstructed and placed with our make-up artist Carolanne.

Our first shoot – Nortier at Fetcham Park

by

The very first time the Nortier team had the audacity to stage a shoot of our work was January 2023. Using a photographer, model and venue that Emma has known and loved forever, this shoot was designed to be a fun expression of late 80's and early 90's style.

The proportions of the Schiffer dress were taken from Emma's 1993 wedding dress and the black accessories and slouch boots were out of her art school playbook.

The vision was for the model/bride to be a cool, comprehensive-school girl, partying with the aristocracy.

A bespoke gold coat for Caroline

by

It was such a pleasure to create this bespoke opera coat for Caroline's winter country house wedding at Huntsham Court. Made from luxurious champagne silk, the coat features a flaming orange lining for a flash of colour.

Caroline wore her cape over her Suzanne Neville Sapphire dress from Miss Bush with a glamorous 60's inspired up-do dotted with stars; a bridal outfit fit for a queen!

Caroline's thoughts

"I cannot tell you how much I love that damn coat, it's this warm Champagne silk taffeta and lined in burnt orange silk which incidentally, was the colour we built the wedding around.

Being January, flowers were limited and we wanted something that would glow and feel warm without feeling Christmassy. It's Grace Kelly wrapped in 60s glam, swathed in decadence.

One of the bar staff said to my mum "Which one of them has the royal title?" which is probably hyperbole on their part but royal is how it felt."

The Belle of the Ball – a yellow dress for Miss Bush

by

In 2023, Miss Bush celebrated their 35th birthday. The occasion was marked by a party at the chapel, inspired by the vibrancy and bold colours of Barcelona. We created a striking yellow dress for the event, which looked incredible against the backdrop of colourful flowers created by Frankie Lane. With a ruched strapless neckline above a full ballgown skirt, the dresses came with detachable puff sleeves.
