I was in contact with Judith regarding their initiative to ‘Find Good Homes’ for the discontinued fabrics. When I arrived at their new shop in Stepaside I was greeted with a lovely warm welcome. I was so impressed by the shop and their array of luxurious fabrics. I was delighted with the selection of fabrics I could choose from and can’t wait to start some new projects. I would highly recommend a visit.

I was very nervous about the whole process before I went to Roisin Cross Silks for my Mother of the Bride dress, but my mind was soon put at ease. My first contact was with with Margaret to discuss the design and choose the right material. Margaret listened to what I wanted, took my ideas on board and improved the design with her own. She's just intuitive and gifted in translating the idea in your head to paper. My next contact was with the oh so talented dressmaker Natalia. I was blessed to have her. With each visit my dress was more beautiful and in the end fitted beautifully. Natalia took such pride in her work and as the dress developed always knew where to add a pleat or tuck just to make it 100%. Natalia's excitement and joy in her work just added to my confidence. Overseeing all was Judith who negotiates all the appointments and financial side with friendliness and ease. I was thrilled with my bespoke dress and got loads of compliments on the day. It was stunning, comfortable and a pleasure to wear and I would have no hesitation in recommending or returning to Roisin Cross Silks

I feel extremely lucky that my future mother-in-law flagged their wonderful & generous 'Bride to be' giveaway and particularly that our close representee managed to win my future sister-in-law & I our preferred dresses! It was such a smooth process and able to browse / show detail of the dress beforehand and was impressed by their fast response to email too, along with their open & honesty. I am very grateful and thanks for such lovely designs, really looking forward to wearing it for our special occasion!

Judith ran an Instagram & FB competition recently where she was giving away 7 sample wedding dresses. I mentioned this to my friend, whose son & daughter are getting married to their partners in 2024 and wondered would the girls be interested in entering. They both entered the competition and both received invites to attend RCS last Saturday 07th October, 2023. As neither of the girls were in a position to attend, they do not live in Ireland, they asked me would I represent them on their behalf. It was a pleasure to attend such an exciting event. Judith & her lovely staff had the competition well organised and everyone present was asked to choose a ticket. I chose 2 tickets & was lucky enough to win both girls their first choices. I cannot tell you how excited the girls were when I phoned them to let them know they had both won a wedding dress each. They couldn’t believe their luck & cannot wait to see their stunning Irish designed silk gowns & to try them on. The girls, their Mum & I are very appreciative of Judith’s very kind gesture of running such a generous competition. This is one of those magical stories, which I have no doubt will be told many many times over the years to their families & friends. Thank you for the opportunity Judith, you are one in a million!

My future sister-in-law and I entered into the competition and were lucky enough to both win the dresses of our choosing. We are so excited to be able to wear such beautiful dresses and Judith has provided us with an amazing opportunity for our big days. It was a fabulous experience and we can’t wait to share how we look in them. Thank you to Judith for being so helpful and generous with this competition!
