Gillian Million designs and creates bridal jewellery for brides all over the world, including celebrity and royal clients. Her designs feature regularly in fashion and celebrity magazines.
Gillian set about designing her own tiaras when she found that she couldn't find the right hair accessories to complement her wedding dress. Excited by the result and encouraged by the enthusiastic response of others, Million Design Company was launched in February 2002.
Within months of launching, Liberty in Regent Street took the entire Million Design Company collection and soon to follow were Amanda Wakeley, Browns Brides and Christiana Couture.
In addition to the individual care and attention offered by its well-established bespoke service, the Million Design Company has launched its online shop. You can now browse at your leisure and purchase Gilian's exquisite designs from the comfort of your own home..
The Million Design Company creates unique jewellery and headdresses with a sense of vintage elegance. We recycle antique pearls and vintage stones and pieces of jewellery bringing something old into something new. Faux pearls, vintage glass beads and semi precious-stones are intricately wired together, creating the most beautiful and precious designs that somehow feel that you are holding onto a family heirloom, quite magical and completely unique and personal!
Fashions are of course, forever evolving, and Gillian Million's collection moves with the times whilst maintaining an air of inherited beauty.
It is extremely rewarding to create hair accessories that are unique and special to each bride and it is always an exciting challenge.
Fast and efficient delivery of more than 100 exquisite designs are available to online customers.
Clients booking bespoke appointments will benefit from the very special, unique and valued relationship which Gillian builds with her clients as she aims to exceed the expectations of every bride.
Gillian welcomes each client into her home where they sit in front of the fire with a cup of tea, fabric swatches, magazine cuttings, sketch pads and discuss, in great detail, the accessory needs of the bride for her wedding day. They then spend time in Gillian's studio, surrounded by countless examples of Gillian's beautiful creations. The whole experience inspires creativity and designs to meet the needs of the bride whether classically understated or dramatically flambouyant.
Not one client has left empty handed, not only finding accessories for herself but bridesmaid's accessories and gifts, beautiful fascinators for the mother of the bride, veils and an additional piece of jewellery that they can't resist and simply feel they "must have" for their honeymoon!
Brides like to be able to wear their headdresses again but rarely find the occasion to do so. The Million Design Company offers an after wedding service where we recreate the headdress or jewellery into a more wearable piece of jewellery. For example we can convert the tiaras into chokers or necklaces or we can dismantle the jewels and recreate them into a cuff, choker or brooch to be worn time and time again in memory of the wedding day.
