label

The Charlotte Keating ENGLAND womenswear label was launched successfully in 2002. The collections are recognized for subtle design detailing and arresting colour, print, embellishment and textile combinations. The label sells through independent boutiques both in the UK and abroad. Her collections have been well received and earned several awards including Davidoff Cool Water Wave’s Talent of the Year as featured in New Woman Magazine.

boutique

With a growing clientele and small celebrity following, she is now preparing to open her first boutique in a well sought after area in Bristol, with the focus on offering a personal design service in store alongside selling small capsule collections. Drawing on her more recent experience as an image stylist, she will be able to offer advise in-store to women on how to dress and shop with flair and confidence, nurturing and encouraging them to express themselves through clothes.

marriage of ideas

Alongside the label, Charlotte started taking commissions for wedding gowns and outfits for the bridal party & guests.

Clients now come to Charlotte for her signature style of alluringly feminine designs. With her personable approach, Charlotte intuitively transforms clients’ tentative notions into flattering garments which capture the essence of the person. Charlotte especially enjoys offering a couture look by incorporating individual handmade fabric manipulation, embellishment and experimenting with fresh draping and pattern-cutting techniques. The process from start to finish is a truly special and sentimental journey.
