WITH lockdown starting to ease many women are looking forward to ditching the tracksuits and sloppy home- working attire for something more flattering. The Perfect Dress Company in Ferndown is an on-line business that launched in the most inauspicious of times - March 2020, but despite the pandemic has enjoyed remarkable success. It s now our worthy winner of Trader of the Week. The company was founded by Sunny Bird who lives in Ferndown with husband Darren and daughter Sophia,3. She also runs Sunny Bird PR in Bournemouth. Sunny was diagnosed with Graves’ disease in 2012, gaining 19kg (42lbs) in just three months, and found herself not only facing a debilitating illness, but also the challenge of finding a whole new wardrobe to suit her changed figure.
