Lullingstone Castle Photoshoot 2025

25th January 2026

Back in the early summer of 2025 I wanted to organise a photoshoot of my Spring/Summer collection pieces after I had shown them at the fashion show in London in February. I felt the collection deserved to be photographed properly for my website & social media images & I was exploring the possibility of different locations that would be appropriate for the dresses & the overall styling.

I garnered the help of a two amazing young people to help me for the day one to be my photographer one to & one to be my model. Next the search was on for a location which is difficult because I wanted an outside location not too far away for us all to get to. After much research I was really pleased that Lullingstone Castle & The World  Gardens in Kent very kindly agreed to let us use there grounds for the day!  

I am so pleased to share my favourite pictures from the day with you on this blog as I am proud of the images we created together as a team. I had a great day & I am very grateful to my helpers! 

Elegantly simple structured silhouettes make an ultra-feminine statement occasion wear collection named Sunset Boulevard, created from low impact fabrics in a beautiful warm summer inspired colour palette, all designed & handmade in my studio.   

Aspecial thank you to Tom Hartdyke at Lullingstone Castle & The World Gardens for letting us use the grounds for the day! Also a huge thank you to Mimi Bennett for the photography & Josie Rossouw for modelling!
