About Louise Rose Couture

Welcome to Louise Rose Couture, where timeless romance and inimitable individuality are a match made in the dress shop.

We create made-to-order bridal and occasion dresses inspired by you, for you, and only you. Our mission is to make you feel incredible, whatever your age, shape or size.

Our signature designs are reminiscent of the 1950s, with a slice of modern and a side helping of sass. We aim to encapsulate the glamour and romanticism of bygone eras in cut and shape while nodding to current trends in fabric, style and pattern.

Our dresses are for modern women who love vintage and are looking for something less traditional and more exclusive for a wedding or special occasion. Not to mention something that accents their femininity and makes them feel gorgeous.

But exclusive doesn’t have to mean expensive. We offer an affordable midpoint between off-the-peg and fully bespoke using standard-size mock-ups that we can tailor to your requirements.

You’ll receive a friendly, personal service at our Reading-based studio or at one of our stockists. This will involve a free initial consultation where you can have a cup of tea, browse our sample rail and countless fabric swatches, and tell us about your dream dress. This will be followed by several appointments for fittings as we craft and perfect it for you.

Hello lovelies. I’m Louise, the creator of Louise Rose Couture and a professionally trained designer and dressmaker.

Over the years I’ve gone from working for a high-end bespoke designer to producing garments for high street stores to showcasing my own collection at Ottawa Fashion Week in Canada. It was after travelling the world with a friend and coming back refreshed and inspired (and missing my sewing machine!) that I decided to create my own label. In 2016, Louise Rose Couture was born.

From the start my mission has been to help all women of all ages, shapes and sizes discover how gorgeous they are. This, combined with a love of vintage glamour, inspired me to create a range of timeless dresses capable of flattering any and every body that wears them.

My customers range from brides and bridesmaids looking for non-traditional/alternative dresses to ladies who love the idea of a one-of-a-kind 50s dress for special occasions. For the last five years I have worked with Top Model, dressing finalists in Louise Rose Couture dresses for the annual finals’ catwalk shows. In April 2017 I was awarded two years of mentorship and support by the Princes Trust.
