An experienced seamstress and tailor has opened a new bridal shop following the success of her pandemic project.
Evie Riddell, 28, launched Naya Bridal in Coltishall earlier this month after her busiest period yet since launching her brand three years ago during lockdown.
She said it was time to move out of her home studio and into the Wroxham Road location after going from "strength to strength".
"Naya is a unique combination of a bridal boutique and a seamstress where everything is completed for your wedding outfit journey," Ms Riddell said.

"We specialise in re-designing your heirloom gown or creating bespoke styles from scratch, as well as alterations and prom wear."
After studying fashion design at university, Ms Riddell worked in "fast fashion" where she developed an interest in bespoke service and sustainability.

She added that one of her key aims was to provide a laid-back and personal approach to working with brides to design their dresses.
"I wanted to take elements of design that help me to feel relaxed," she said.
"So with Naya, I've taken inspiration from natural textures and being on the coast and paired it with neutral tones."
