Way back when (2009/10 Panto Season) I started out working for First Family Entertainment, one of the leading celebrity pantomime companies, making this mountain of a dress.

I worked alongside a lady called Maggie Power (her ability is in her name!) making this Christmas tree dress which was designed by Emma Waugh, Wardrobe Mistress.

The dress was worn by Scott St. Martyn, whilst playing an ugly sister in Cinderella, at the New Theatre Woking.

I worked on all aspects of the making process, from pattern prep to making to finishing touches. It also became, probably the most photographed dress in FFE history!

This photograph (along with framed, signed Jon Lee Headshot) now sit proudly in my living room, and will all ways be in my mind, 'a dream come true' (cue snowfall).
