Claire H. of Davis, CA for Lanini's Wedding, October 20, 2012

Claire is wearing 100% silk charmause for fabric and 100% china silk for lining. The sizes are available from 2 to 18. This boatneck top with cowl back with straight/fitted skirt cost $299. I love working with silk. It's easy to cut and sew and also good for the environment.

Jamie W. of Tokyo, Japan December 22, 2012 Wedding

Jamie's mom, Donna found my website and thought I would be the perfect person to design Jamie's wedding dress so we met back in August of 2012. Jamie came out to California for 3 weeks from Japan this month so I finished her wedding dress so that she could take it back to Tokyo. It was so much fun to work with Jamie. She is so sweet and very easy to work with. We used Jamie's mom (Donna's) wedding dress for fabric. I used about 70% from Donna's dress and the other 30%, I used China silk. I love using old wedding dresses for fabric so we don't waste anything and plus, the client saves from buying new materials.

Kari L. of Davis, CA October 20, 2012

I had a great time working with Kari L. of Davis. Kari came to me back in May 2012 to see if I could design and make her a wedding dress since I worked on her twin sister Alli's dress last summer. I agreed but it took me longer than usual to finish her dress since I was traveling to South Korea and Japan this summer. Kari was very patient. It took me 5 months to finish her dress since I was working on other clients designs. Kari has beautiful skin and a natural looking face so we decided to just work with natural silk charmause as a liner and lace on top. I didn't put on any beads since she wanted the lace to be soft.
