Katja Nuutinen – Couturier
-A great designer outfit is so much more than a drawing on the paper. It is all about how the design works with your personality, how the correct proportions bring the look together, how the right shade of fabric makes you radiant and about every tiny detail, tuck and stitch in that piece which is lovingly made for you. We put this intricate puzzle together to make sure you look stunning when it’s your moment to shine!-“
Katja Nuutinen, originally from Finland, has established as one of the sought after new generation couturiers in London attracting discerning clientele not only from UK but also around the world, who want to experience a totally unique made to measure outfit made. In her studio in Wimbledon she creates beautiful pieces of bespoke couture designs working closely with her clients. Her interest in couture started already in childhood and she has gone through extensive training to be able to produce couture gowns and tailoring using a carefully selected range of sumptuous materials. Katja likes to make you feel at ease and to enjoy the special experience of having your dream outfit designed and made for you.
