Zoe Lem - http://www.zoelem.co.uk/
Following 15 years as fashion and celebrity stylist Zoe Lem has created a collection of dresses celebrating the classic vintage styles from the 1920s to the 1960s along with the ideal body shapes for each era.
Zoe has worked in the vintage scene for many years but has noticed that though it has now become much more accessible and covered by mainstream media very few girls actually understand what the defining silhouettes and shapes are from each of the eras not least which would best suit their shape.
Starting with a vintage body shape consultation Zoe will identify the bride’s body shape (Hour glass, Pear Shaped or Straight up and Down) then look at the most flattering shape/silhouette to maximise the bride’s body shape, height and colouring.
