Charlotte is a British couture dress designer and founder of Couture Bead Masters. She trained at the London College of Fashion in Handcraft and Production tailoring. 

Charlotte initially worked within fashion, film and theatre before setting up her own business, The English Tailoress. Alongside her private commission work, she teaches internationally, running workshops & courses around specialist beading skills.

Charlotte is an expert in her field, especially in her use of the ‘Luneville’ technique which is practiced in the couture houses in Paris today but its origin dates to the early 1800’s.

She celebrates the traditional art of couture beading to share her experience with other designers, enthusiasts and companies worldwide. To maintain these artisanal skills within the industry and keep the traditional techniques alive, Charlotte set up Couture Bead Masters.
