Gorgeous layered and floaty wedding dress made with multiple layers of ivory silk chiffon, silk satin with complementary of white beaded lace trim.

We are very excited to be launching the Velvet Cherry website! Since Fiona established Velvet Cherry in 2012, the business has been growing steadily. We are taking commissions from throughout New Zealand and even from Australia.

A web site is just part of our growth. We want to reach out to the growing steampunk/Victorian re-enactment communities, and to increase our wedding party, bridal, and gothic/lolita clientele. And we want to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who has helped us come this far!!
