Wedding Dress Update

The day is here. Today, the client will be picking up her dress along with the bridal party dresses and all appendages. She came in for a fitting last night and I had to make some changes to the dress.

I also completed the veil last week and she loved it. Here are some pictures.

I decided on a clip instead of the conventional comb

I started out with this layered look but settled on the equal length later on

Neatly Packed for the bride

Blurry Picture but this was the only picture that showed the veil length.

And here's a sneak of the dress...just construction pictures though. I'll do a full post after the wedding

I cant wait for the wedding day when I'll see the bride fully dressed and can proudly say, "I made that" :D

I seriously feel like dancing...my very first wedding dress. This is no mean feat considering I started fashion school in February so you can understand my excitement and nervous anticipation.

Until next time, God bless you.

Love,

Preye.

Wedding Dress and other Adventures

I am working on my biggest project yet! a wedding gown...I have never sewn anything of this magnitude or importance but the bride has so much faith in my abilities (more than I did initially to be honest...lols) and I definitely have to deliver on it.

Its a knock-off of the Pronovias Dalia Dress. 

Thankfully its a pretty straightforward design and we're doing it in fabrics that are easy to handle (I don't think I can handle a chiffon wedding dress just yet)

Did I mention I am also doing her veil...Here is a picture of what she wants replicated. 

I've got everything on hand except the sequin and beads in the right shade of ivory. Hopefully I'll be able to source for that within the week.

Alongside the wedding dress, I am also working on the Maid of Honor dress and Six! bridesmaid dresses.

The MOH dress is a long flowey lace creation with embellishments at the waistline, while the BM dresses are identical Lace Peplum dresses.

I'll post pictures of the dresses as I go along.

The wedding is less than a month away and combined with my office job, I definitely have my work cut out for me.

Until next time...Blessings!
