One of my best friends got married yesterday. When we sat down to design her dress she basically said I should do whatever I think will work for her. So I did just that. And I have to say, this definitely goes amongst my fave creations to date.. no.1 because of how personal the bride is to me and no.2 because of the amount of craftmanship that went in to this particular dress. What may just look like lots of lace on a princess frame, is actually an intricately sculpted ball gown, with 3 layered petticoats, and 3metre dramatic train, and the lace detail you are looking at, is flowers that have been individually cut out and appliqued (sewn) down one by one by my team of 8, over a course of over 6 weeks. Passion is required in creating timeless pieces.
