My Bridal Dress

Had to blog this.

Had been looking for vintage/avant-garde. Experimenting is fun. But minimalist turned out better for the lagoon wedding. Bridal dress magazines are very educational and they kick butt!


Just so I can remember when I'm old:

My bridal dress is: traditional/minimalist.
colour: rice-ish white, matching coloured veil (curtesy of my 5-auntie in Taiwan)
material: rice-coloured see-through organza over satin + crystal beads
back: very pretty V-shaped lace-up corset with thick white satin ribbons. And a "modesty panel" to hide my behind, which would have shown at the base of the "V". WORD: It is a mechanical wonder.
front: sleeve-less, straight across chest. With beading across the chest. Organza gathers at right waist, where beading is also added.
train: short train
hair ornament: found these great diamonte clips on Cross St. in Double Bay
shoes: pretty silvery shoes with shiny little beads, from the Bay in Ottawa!
