Description

hm. don’t have any nice pictures.
when i knew i was going to get married, i decided to make my own dress.
i bunched up the top piece and since the satin was a good deal i went ahead and bought a bunch of swarovsky chrystals,to make up for the value, haha….
it was a nice wedding, even though everthing was chaoic and stressful, i couldn’t even fix my hair. it was mostly a complete handmade wedding, bcs we were planning on having another wedding celebration in germany, like a BIG traditional one. these are pictures from griffith park in hollywood, ca

Material Notes

satin, beads.

    And here it is – the dress that combines the best parts of the other two. I love the “bunched up” top (and the crystals did do something wonderful for it) and also I love the “slit” on the side of the skirt. In general – the best dress of the three and you are gorgeous!!!

      You are welcome! And I am like that myself – no matter, even if the clothes are the same (rarely, but happens), I still like whatever it is on my not quite so much as on others… :-)
