I mean, you can't walk down the aisle in Westminster Abbey in a strapless dress, it just won't happen - it has to suit the grandeur of that aisle, it's enormous.

My aim is to make you look the best you can and if that means a little bit of internal pulling and hoisting up, then so be it.

I keep on working when other people are out having fun. But I love what I do and find it hard to stop.
