I had been thinking of going with a custom-made dress after looking around and not finding anything I liked, and then I discovered I was pregnant! So that sealed the decision. I discovered Pure Something and was relieved when Kathryn assured me she could handle my ever-changing body. She was able to solidify an amorphous idea I had for a dress, and turn it into something simple, elegant, pretty, and best of all comfortable, while navigating my expanding tummy! I felt beautiful.

All I know is I felt fabulous in the dress. It flowed wonderfully and fit perfectly. Having not had a ‘wedding’ party or the fuss with all the fixings of a wedding 35 years prior, I took this opportunity to celebrate with the man of my dreams, albeit 35 years later. Thanks to you I felt like a bride!

When I went to see Kathryn for the first time, I was a bit anxious. I had my wedding and reception outfits custom embroidered in India during my trip in 2007. However, because my trip was so short, I didn’t have time to get them made. After our initial meeting, I felt like my stress of finding a dressmaker locally who could make my vision come to life was finally over. Kathryn made me feel at ease as she took me step by step through the process of making my outfits. She beautifully handled the intricate embroidery on my dresses and the final result was absolutely stunning! Both of my dresses came out looking flawless and better then I had ever imagined.

Thank you again for your creative ideas in making me look perfect on my wedding day.

I was happy, and relieved, to find Pure Something after several shopping trips left me worried that I would never find my wedding dress. I was looking for something simple and elegant on a budget and you delivered. I was not only happy with the finished product but the whole process was fun and relaxed. Thank you.

Having a dress designed and made just for you is a great experience. I have had 3 dresses made by Pure Something and I love each one. Kathryn and Jessica were so helpful in perfecting the rough ideas I had to find a style that was exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend them!

I have never had so many beautiful dresses to take me so many places until I discovered the infinite talents of Kathryn at pure(something)clothing company! For many years I avoided the various formal functions we were invited to because I could never find (or afford) that perfect dress that would fit my body the way I thought it should. Not only was she able to fit me favorably, she has always been willing to make the changes I thought necessary to make me comfortable in the gown I was wearing. From cruise ships to formal events across Canada, I have received countless compliments on the uniqueness of the styles she has designed for me. A girl can’t help but be flattered by that!! I would recommend her, not only for her knowledge and talent of her craft, but also for her patience and her willingness to listen to ideas and input from her clients. If she doesn’t agree, you can be sure she has an even better suggestion to implement!

After looking in a few bridal salons I knew that it would be difficult to find a wedding dress that I would fall in love with. I was recommended by a friend to see Kathryn at Pure Something and it was exactly what I needed. They were so creative, talented and wonderfully gracious throughout the entire design process. I had several fittings to ensure that I was getting the dress that I have always dreamed of, and I did! I loved my dress and it was even more beautiful than I initially imagined. I fully recommend Pure Something. You will end up with a gorgeous one of a kind dress that is beyond your expectations.

When I first met Kathryn and Jessica, I had been to a few bridal boutiques and had been left feeling very discouraged.

Seeing pure(something)’s dresses made me so happy! They were beautiful, very unique and Kathryn and Jessica made me feel so beautiful at the first meeting I couldn’t see myself getting a dress anywhere else.

I had the idea of the top of one dress and the bottom of another dress. I told them that I had been watching a lot of “Deadwood” and wanted the dress to mimic the bustle of one of the “soiled doves” from the show. They didn’t even blink. Kathryn said, “okay but in what colour?”. I was in love.

The back of the dress became known as the “oyster bits” for the ruffles reminded me of the frills of an oyster. Again, neither of the girls even blanched when described my dress using food associations.

The fittings were awesome, we laughed so much! The moment I had the final dress on it was so amazing. The tiniest details filled every part of me with happiness. The lace on the underskirt, now that’s attention to detail!!

Everyone complimented my dress. Everyone. Complete strangers who passed by while we were waiting kept asking me where I got it. I’ve been telling everyone to go to pure(something). It was honestly the easiest part of the whole wedding preparation. Pure(something) took so much pressure off of me, I love these girls!!

Having my wedding dress made by Pure Something Co. was a wonderful experience. They truly listened to my ideas and offered suggestions to help create the most important and stunning dress I would ever wear. I love that the dress was made piece by piece to fit my body; I have never received so many compliments! I have and will continue to recommend Pure Something to all the brides to be in my life. Wonderful people who have amazing talent!
