Description
I simply adore the color of this wedding gown. When I was comision to design a wedding dress for this lovely girl, I was happy to know that she wanted a big dress with crystals….that is all she told me, and this was the design that I came out with……Made in Silk dupioni, embroidered in gold color, and also with the spark of the swarovski crystals that she also had on her beautifull head piece. The top part was not complicated, but…the skirt….well!! it is made out of 7-like-petals, and each of them has an inside “heart” that has been embroidered and with the crystals. Her veil was simple, but all full of crystals and double. She was happy, and I……well……..I thank God when I saw her smile…..New: I have a blog now in couture finishings, so please come and follow me in: Rainforestcouture
Material Notes
100% silk duppioni.

OH MY GOD!!! This is amazing! And you want to be a copycat on that little striped jacket of mine? I mean, PLEASE, feel free, but maybe it’s unworthy of your skills, really. I am speechless!

I thank you very much for you nice and kind words….but…how can you say that???? there is not such a thing or you being unworthy……no, no….we have to erase that!!!
Aug 3, 2010, 07.52 AMby ajtak7171
Hihi, no, I didn’t mean I am unworthy, but that pattern! It’s too easy for you! It was meant as a joke anyway, but you make such great things, the jacket doesn’t even need a real fit…
Aug 3, 2010, 12.26 PMby Adriana Orozco
Do not worry!!! I understand you perfectly…..,may be my english is not good enoughj!! I was trying to follow your joke…..I never took it wrong, quite the oposite. thank you and thank you!!!

This dress is simply stunning and any girl would smile with it on. I love, love, love the colour! This is definitely another project worthy of the front cover surely! Thank you for sharing it with us. :-)

I can only imagine the hours involved in this project. I’ve made 3 wedding gowns but nothing that required so much fabric. Your custom design belongs on a magazine cover.

Hi Adriana, this dress is absolutely stunning. Your work is amazing! I may be making my daughter’s wedding dress sometime in the next two years. Thankfully, it won’t be so complicated, but I hope I can get the quality of finish and fit that you have achieved. Great job!
