Booked an appointment to see Katya as I was looking for a Mother of the Bride dress - that’s the gold brocade one I bought ! ….suffice to say I tried on a few more whilst I was there which was dangerous as I could seriously have purchased more - the Stevie dress was gorgeous too ! But this leopard print dress looked great and felt so versatile that I bought this for a wedding we were attending but it’s going to get a lot of wear this season. Can easily be dressed up with shoes/ boots or with trainers - the fabric is so comfortable and doesn’t crease - for reference I’m a size 16 and 5ft7
Bought this stunning dress to wear at my daughter’s wedding next Spring …. I saw this dress a while back and always wanted a reason to come and try it …. This photo is at Katya Wildman atelier, as it’s not had its official outing yet. Suffice to say I said “yes to the dress”, my daughter and husband came with me from W Yorkshire to try the dresses with Katya - they agreed it looked as stunning as I felt in it. It’s been a long time since I’ve tried on a dress with the wow factor that this dress had, I felt like it fit me in all the right places …. If you’re in any doubt then book a try on with Katya, she knew instantly what would flatter my figure and was so welcoming x
(For reference I’m a size 16 and 5ft7 )
Absolutely stunning gown which made me feel wonderful from the moment I tried it on. Everything is spot on - the fabric is so soft and it moves like a dream. It was perfect for my wedding in July. Thankfully the heatwave broke a little, so it was perfect for a sunny windy day with the temperature being about 25 degrees. It didn’t feel too hot to wear, and made me feel very bridal. Thank you so much for designing such a comfortable and beautiful dress.
I love the dress. I feel so nice in it. I have booked an appointment with you as I feel I may need some alterations or drop a size. I would also like to try on your blue silk dress. I really feel my MOTB dress decisions are nearly there. Thank you.
This is the most stunning dress, the fit is perfect, the brocade is beautiful the colour is a dream. And its got pockets!😀 it is such a flattering dress that I had to have it in the blue too!😍
I shall be purchasing many more dresses in the future thats for sure👌❤️🍾🥂
What a special dress! I wore it to Glyndebourne and to my niece’s wedding. I got so many compliments! I felt great and it was comfortable for 2 long days of wearing. It’s an absolute favourite
Absolutely delighted with Charlotte's Roses 'Always' dress. The ballerina length was very flattering as I could wear a knee support that remained unseen. The dress is on a cruise at the moment and even in temperatures of 28'C I coped. The sleeve length worked well. The fabric is a lovely weight. The creamier background suited my colouring very well. The zip front runs smoothly. However, there have been times when wearing the plain coloured zip front dresses that I have considered trying to adorn the zip pull to make a feature of it. Am I the only one? Brilliant dress and I enjoyed wearing it very much.
I saw the dress on email , but it wasn’t available until 31st .. I had an event that day so asked if it could be shipped to me sooner. I was so happy to see it arrive with 2 days to spare and fitted perfectly… beautiful dress that will definitely be worn again, so timeless
Thank you x
Everything about the Grace silk dress is just gorgeous; from the deep, rich, shimmering colour, the fabulous silk dupion material to the most flattering and stylish cut and fit. I had been worried about what to wear for an opera festival in the country and this was just perfect. Wearing such a beautiful dress not only gave me a feeling of great confidence but so much pleasure and joy too. Thank you, Katya!
Oh my goodness I love this dress. From the cut to the fabric. Very flattering and just right for a family lunch celebration. Later in the year it will be coming on holiday with me, such a versatile dress. The artist print fabric is so chic. Beautiful.
I struggle to find dresses to fit over my bust. The cut and flow of material was perfect. I felt so comfortable in this dress for my elopement wedding.
Love the style. It's a go to dress for so.many different events all year round. Its a simple style but can bd easily accessorised and dressed up if needed. It's bedn on cruise holidays, smart restaurants, casual lunches and birthday parties . It's washable so that's a big plus in my book. This is a super style. I have this cotyon in the navy and in this pink as well as the tahitian rose. Absolute staples in the wardrobe.
It’s truly beautiful dress! Stunning colours, flattering, and comfortable. This will be one of my favourites for special occasions! This summer it will be worn at my niece’s wedding and Glyndebourne, just for starters.
I was fortunate enough to be able to have an appointment with Katya at her studio (450 mile round trip but every mile worth it ) to try The SuZannah dress for my daughter’s wedding,which I purchased.
Whilst there Katya asked if I would also like to try this denim zip front dress and this also was a definite winner.
The fabric is so beautiful,works so well with my body shape. Katya’s eye for detail with the Gold zip just adds to the dress,such a simple thing but meaning it can casual or dressed up .
This most certainly will not be my only purchase from this range.Ladies you will LOVE it !!!!!
Livery dinner in London
A lady who said she was your friend came running up to me asking if it was one of your dresses and asked if she could take a photo, all my friends were impressed. I had many compliments. Thank you
I shall be wearing this to my niece’s wedding. I absolutely love it! I shall accessorise with green. I tried the 12 but the 10 (shown) suits me better.
I loved everything about this dress: the cotton fabric, the colour and I felt like a million dollars in it. It’s going to be a go-to outfit for so many occasions.
And it’s very comfortable!
Just perfect for a special dinner on my birthday.
Utterly fabulous dress: I LOVE it I will take more pics and do an IG post. Am in Brussels to hear my daughter sing a solo in the cathedral so it’s a v special occasion. The dress I comfortable and elegant and the colour so rich and pops in the sunshine. I will be making further purchases x
Fabulous dress. I had bought it for my 70th birthday celebration lunch. Didn’t want to celebrate as my husband is very ill but our children insisted and I’m so pleased they did! Dress was just “me” and I felt wonderful in it. Thank you Katya,
The quality is outstanding and the cut of the dress, especially for us bigger boobies ladies is perfect. The fabrics was heavier than I was expecting for a summer dress, perfect for normal Uk summers but too thick for me to wear abroad unfortunately in the summer heat. I can however see that I will a lot of wear of this gorgeous dress even in cooler months with a stylish jacket, cardigan or wrap. Would love to see it in more colours in the future. Another win for the gorgeous Katya 💖
I can’t wait to wear this stunning dress. I love the new Ballerina length ❤️. Even though I am just over 5ft, it looks gorgeous and is so flattering. Thank you Katya x
I bought this a few months for a special function in June. So many people commented positively on the style. They loved the sashes and the different ways to fasten it. It is very flattering on. I wore the dress 8 hours andvit was comfortable. Sasha is a classy dress from a super fabric that will allow it to be worn throughout the year. It will prove to be a very versatile item in the future; especially with change of accessories. Brilliant item. Thank you.
I was struggling to find a Mother of the Bride dress until I found Katya.
I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Katya and trying on dresses, all the dresses I tried fitted beautifully and I was spoilt for choice. I decided on the Zipper Inkwell Rose and I felt gorgeous in it, it was perfect for my daughter’s wedding but it’s a dress I will wear again and again. I will be taking it with me for my imminent trip to a Kefalonia.
Dearest Katya, from coming to see you in January I knew it would have been one of your gorgeous dresses that I wanted to be wearing as mother of the bride and I couldn’t have been happier! As the wedding was so close to the production date of the dress, we didn't know if it would arrive in time, so I had to have a back up dress, hat and accessories in case it didn't get there. It literally arrived hot off the sewing machine the day before the wedding as I was packing the car to go to our daughter’s house! I took it to my daughter’s unboxed it and tried it on for the first time there to show it to my husband, daughter and future son in in law. As I walked down the stairs to ask them what they thought , it was a unanimous chorus of “That’s the dress”! Luckily the accessories that I had bought for the back up dress worked really well with it and the rest is history! It fit perfectly, was so comfortable and I got so many compliments!! Thank you for making such stunning dresses! I cant wait to buy my next one! Love Jan x
Me , today , early morning , hair unwashed for last few days , just woken up ….
I used to be glamorous , but that’s in the past 🤣🤣
Tried it on early am with a lovely friend , after having a crisis of confidence yesterday 🤦♀️when I had emailed Katya for advice 🤣🤣

I am ready for a wedding on May 16th! This is a beautiful dress. I feel fantastic in it, it's beautifully made and very comfortable to wear.
I am excited to wear it!
Thank you.
(Please excuse photos of decking and a fence! )
I’m a 22/Katya 4!
I was absolutely dreading a really special occasion/trip coming up; simply because of the dress code and what to wear.
I chose the gold sequin for the evening black tie dinner and the blue/white polka dot for the day.
I was so comfortable and people said so many lovely positive things about the dresses and the way I looked.
Thank you Katya- please keep up the excellent designs and just how wonderful these dresses feel when on.
