Paper Dolls is the nostalgic name of Tatum Kelly’s bridal fashion design studio. Yes, she was one of those little girls- spent her childhood dressing up herself, her friends ... and her dolls. Since then she has evolved into a talented designer, but never lost her knack for discovering the little girl in every woman - her inspiration for creating her beautiful designs and dreamy gowns. “ Tatum believes that whether whimsical and romantic, or sultry and elegant, there’s a "Paper Doll" in every client.”
Attending the FAB Bridal Expo had always been more of a long term plan for Paper Dolls, but this year they not only exhibited, but got involved by sponsoring 2 bridesmaid dresses for the FAB 'Win a Wedding' competition. “When I saw that FAB was offering a sponsorship deal, I jumped at the opportunity. Sponsoring garments is something that I am very used to doing and I can't wait to begin working with the winner ...”
Tatum enjoyed interacting with other exhibitors and wants to go even bigger next year: “The spot that my stall was positioned at was really great, my neighbours up and down the aisle were all so friendly...by the end of the weekend we were like old friends... I will definitely participate again, in fact, I realised that next time I need to be part of the fashion show too. What an awesome turnout those had!”
Paper Dolls specialises in: bridal couture and accessories, wedding party outfitting (mother of the bride/ bridesmaids/ flower girls), wedding gown alterations and formal wear. In Tatum's own words, the Paper Dolls style is all about creating "joyful garments and accessories, hand-stitched with old school couture methods, infused with quirky touches and topped off with ♥".
