I want to embrace my femininity while feeling elegant in every outfit I wear!

Weddings are all about creating memories, and this was the heart of everything Vivian wanted for her big day. She wanted to use this milestone to embrace her femininity while feeling elegant in every outfit she was going to wear.

As always, our initial step involved accentuating her unique body features. The primary focus was achieving a harmonious balance between her full bust and shoulders (representing her upper body) and her hips (her lower body). After identifying these key elements, we selected a variety of dress styles to compliment her figure. This included an A-line silhouette with a long train.

The second step was to consider the theme "elegance, and femininity". When you look at mood boards for the theme of elegance,  they always portray looks that are clean yet rich in style. This is down to the choice of fabric, simplicity of style, and details on the dress. And one detail that fits perfectly with elegance is a long train at the back of the dress. 

Another way we considered the theme was by accessorizing the pieces with pearls. Pearls are considered to be feminine, so we used them on the veil and the gloves to add depth to the look. 

The third step was the choice of fabrics. We had to be intentional with the fabric because the wedding was going to be in a hot climate region. The last thing we wanted to do was make her feel uncomfortable throughout the day. The best option we had was a tulle fabric which was lightweight and easy to move around in.
