2020

Manila.

I’m a little biased because this is my sister’s wedding. So I’m going to say this is one of my faves. I was inspired by the enduring ethos of my bridal journey, l'amor che move 'l sole e l'altre stelle (The love which moves the sun and other stars) a line from Dante Aleghieri’s Paradiso.

I came up with a custom sun and moon embroidery with Chase and Jo’s etched into the embroidery. I paired the fitted corset bodice wrapped in pure Italian silk with an Asymmetrical tiered electric pleated tulle skirt. And finished the look with a veil embroidered with constellations.

Deeply personal. Truly one of a kind.

It’s also one of the rare times my team made pretty much everyone’s look. Jo in a custom forest green suit by us. The bridesmaids in different shades of rust and in different styles also by us. My mom, My grandmother and My aunts also wearing custom pieces by us.
