'Simple' and 'Modern' are always the two words most of the brides came to me and wish for their wedding gown to be ;) But a 'simple' word in a 'modern' wedding hold a very different definitions to each individual brides. I have quite an amount of custom make gown enquiries recently, on some very 'simple' - to me I called it the minimalism style wedding gown designs.

 Long Sleeves Modern Minimalism Matte Satin Wedding Gown
for a simple yet elegant bride!

In 2015, I think 'minimalism' will be back again in wedding gown designs. A flash back on my previous bride's custom made wedding gown inspirational story on simple wedding gown.

I got a Facebook message inquiry two years back from Wani (Brunei) require on custom making a 'very simple' wedding gown for her wedding. This is the sample picture she sent me:

A Calvin Klein Minimalism Ivory White Gown that Diana Kruger wore in a Gala Red Carpet.

 Wani was very very sure with what she wants and the above are the only 2 sample pictures she showed me and wished to be her wedding gown!

Because it will be her wedding gown, I suggested we put some patch laces embellishments around the neck-line and on the top of the gown and for the back as well. After some ideation, she decided for a 'V' back instead of a full covered back the original designer gown.

With no further ado, here's Wani's actual wedding pictures with her in I AM A BRIDE's custom make wedding gown in a minimalism long sleeves mermaid style!

Congratulations, Wani! Even-though it's been 2 years since after  your wedding but I still can remember every moment you first came to me, 'fall-in-love' during your gown fitting session, posing-posing admiring the gown in front of my mirror, picked up your wedding gown with excitement and the sweetest smile like in your wedding photos above!

Thank you for thrusting me on making your wedding gown come true :)
Congratulations again Wani, as you are now already a wonderful mom to a handsome baby boy!

I got an email from Frances last October, inquiry on whether I can replicate and custom design a bridal cheongsam for her wedding. And she told me she's located in Chicago, Illinois US! Yeay, I'm so happy and excited~! Another international bride client. Happy because Frances trusted me and gave me the honor to custom make her cheongsam; excited because the design of her cheongsam is going to be so special~

Frances showed me the sample pictures of her desire cheongsam design. It's actually from a real bride named Gladys who had her cheongsam custom made by a famous design Barney Cheng, Hong Kong!
She had her wedding in Bali. Here I share with you the master piece of the designer's cheongsam. All photos by Samuel Lippke Studio's website credited.

Custom Make Cheongsam Sketch for Frances

 A soft full lace material layered over a champagne matte satin. Cap Sleeves in see-thru illusion chest-line and bare-back; A-line skirt with a side split and Chapel length train.

This is the full lace material and champagne matte satin I proposed to Frances for her custom make cheongsam design:

I'm glad I have the similar soft full lace material and patch laces
to try to replicate and achieve the designer's cheongsam ♥

After finalized the materials and design, it took me more than 2 months time complete Frances wedding cheongsam! Here are some close-up shoots I took before sending it - my 'precious' creation, off to FedEx and courier it (all my 'heart' work) to Chicago!

♥ Love the patch laces at the see-thru illusional bare-back ♥

Mandarin high collar with patch laces and embellishments
♥ More lovely patch laces on the illusional chest-line ♥

I 'flow' the patch laces at both sides of the cheongsam to give a illusion of accentuate the waist-line

♥ More patch laces on the one-sided split to draw away the straight tangent ♥
Sew a matching lace scalloping for the cheongsam's train!

I'm so glad the cheongsam reach Chicago on-time and Frances was happy when she received it.

Here's what she emailed me when she first saw her custom make cheongsam mock pictures: "Wow! It looks so great, I am very happy!" And I'm very happy as well! Thank you for your kind words ♥
