“You made something that was complex seem super simple. My wedding dress was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined and your contribution added that special spark to my special day :). You are a natural talent, bringing to the table your own ideas and creativity which took my dress from paper to real life in the best way possible. I hope I get to see many more of your masterpieces in future! Thank you Daniele!”

“From the moment I first spoke to Daneile and advised her of my budget, she was the most accommodating and helpful person I had dealt with. All my fittings felt like I was at a friends house, we laughed, I cried (happy tears) and finally the big day came and I got to fetch my dress, I knew I would miss our monthly visits when I came for my fitting.
I absolutely ADORE my dress, everyone was blown away, people thought it was imported from Italy”.

“Every Bride wants to look FABULOUS and also STYLISH on her wedding day. I had a very unconventional request for a wedding dress. Daniele made it all come true and she designed my wedding dress and also made me look like a QUEEN on my wedding day. Daniele is professional yet spikey, and a go-getter. You will look far and beyond to find a better wedding dress designer and maker; to fit all your FABULOUS needs.
I will give Dresses by Daniele a 10/10!!!!

“Daniele was able to take my millions of designs and turn them into a vintage one of a kind princess fairytale dress. She is intuitive and knew what I wanted without me having to say it. She’s friendly, accommodating and reliable! Very reasonably priced and extremely talented! I cannot recommend her enough!”
