Here at Pixie Pocket, I make fun Rockabilly, Pin up and 1950's style Dresses and Wedding Dresses which are custom made to your measurements and can be customised to suit your style and flair. I especially love polkadots!

Please feel free to mix and match skirts, bodices, laces and trims. I get a lot of my fabrics from fabric.com so if you like a style of dress but would like it in another fabric please feel free to search on their site for the perfect fabric. Pixie Pocket is based Christchurch, New Zealand.

Pixie Pocket is run by me, Charlotte Benfield aka Miss Pixie Pocket, a mischievous wee Pixie who loves to sew, shop for fabric and listen to audiobooks!

How I cater to offbeat weddings

Not only do my dresses make great wedding gowns for retro weddings, I also have affordable dresses that are great for bridesmaids! Here’s Offbeat Bride reader Rebecca in her Pixe Pocket dress:

"Dress was professional-grade craftsmanship by an amazing seamstress. Great communication and response time to any message (especially where we were on opposite sides of the world). It fit perfectly and was wonderful to wear." -Carolyn

Cover Image

REQUIRED. Select one image to be used as your cover image, which will appear on the category and location pages. Square images work best. Important: Until you add a cover image, your listing will not appear on category or location pages.

Highlighted Images

Please select up to three images to be highlighted in the header of your portfolio. Note that our templates are designed to be responsive, which means that these images will crop differently depending on the viewer's browser size and orientation -- on mobile, images map crop horizontally. On huge desktops, they may crop vertically. That's as intended, although it may result in some headless couples depending on your photo composition.

Highlight Image 1 First highlighted image in portfolio header. To change image, hover and click the X.	Highlight Image 2 Second highlighted image in portfolio header. To remove or change image, hover and click the X.	Highlight Image 3 Third highlighted image in portfolio header. To remove or change image, hover and click the X.

How I cater to offbeat weddings

This is one of the most important fields on your vendor listing! Our readers love to feel special and like you understand the issues that are important to them -- stuff like LGBTQ support, gender-neutral contracts, and inclusive sizing. They also love hearing about how offbeat YOU are, so be sure to mention any of your own quirks as a way to relate to folks.

Client Testimonial

This is the spot to share a short client quote. The formatting of this section looks best with only a few sentences, but feel free to include a link to full reviews.

Promotions or Discounts

Everyone likes a coupon, but our readers LOVE feeling special, and like their specialness matters and gets them a deal. They especially love discounts or coupons specifically for marginalized communities or identities. If you've ever had a particular client you've wanted to work with (say, a transgender bride or a goth couple or a polyamorous triad) this is the spot to offer a discount specifically to those communities!
