To say these are gorgeous doesn’t come close, I would just love one of these to have and look at from time to time to make me feel extra happy 🙂
I had my dress customized from Wai-Ching’s “Cherry” dress and loved it. I highly recommend Chrissy for anyone.
It’s too bad I only (hopefully) get one wedding and one dress! Posts like these make me wish I could wear silk gowns every day of my life.
Pro-tip: I had Chrissy make me a party dress that I find a way to wear at least once a year:
I’m looking for a dress for my next year wedding, was looking for a tea-length dress but oh god, I may change my mind!! I just love them!! Love the colours, it’s gorgeous…
I’m a bit scared of ordering on the internet, did some of you experienced it with Wai-Ching? It’s not about the quality of the dress but more about the fitting. I’m in the UK so I couldn’t try it before receiving it…
I was skeptical as well when I was thinking about ordering my wedding dress from her since I was unable to fly out to her. I actually put off the decision for months until I couldn’t find any other dress I really liked and saw myself wearing. The skepticism is all a huge waste of time. DO IT. She is fantastic through emails and was very helpful when i was considering doing a custom dress but ultimately ended up with a blue Catalan dress. Once the decision was made, I sent in my measurements, my color choices and payment through the mail and got my dress about 2.5 months later. It fit perfectly.
Also, if you want tea length, tell her. She can modify any dress you like into a shorter version. I didn’t want a train (total klutz and didn’t trust myself with a whole lot of fabric) and she made it shorter for me.
Thank you very much for your feedbacks Nicole!
Nicole, are there pictures of said dress??? I’m considering the catalan (in the regular red) and would looove to see how yours looked.
STOP!!! Why am I not getting married right now? I’ve loved her dresses for so long! Looks great and I can’t wait to see more of her work.
Hi, is this discount still available today, May 2015? I communicated with Chrissy, and she said that she couldn’t give me the discount was only until December 15th… I got confused because December 15th is too far away… Help?
Beautiful ! The women wear the costum dress like a fish girl.
