About
ELLA MAY
Ella May London creates bespoke wedding dresses designed as a true extension of the bride. Each dress is crafted around the individual, bringing together her favourite elements of style and detail to create something entirely personal.
Designed from my Notting Hill Gate studio, every dress is sketched live with the bride and evolves through a series of fittings, allowing the design to be draped, refined, and shaped directly on her. The process is relaxed, collaborative, and supportive - built on trust, instinct, and craftsmanship.
With a background in couture, my approach combines precision and timeless construction with versatility. Many designs feature interchangeable elements and can be adapted after the wedding - dyed, shortened, or reworked, so they can be worn and loved again!

"What an absolute honor it was to work with Ella May! From our very first meeting, I entered the design process with only a hope to incorporate fabric from my mother’s wedding dress into my own.
With extraordinary care and intuition, Ella May guided me through every step, from the earliest sketches and fabric selection to the final creation."
