Wedding Accessories Part 1 : Lingerie & Body Support

Ok, now that you've got your gowns done. You will still need that extra little something to make it perfect. Something to hide the humps and bumps . Something to hide your body imperfections. And something to make you look slimmer. And you don't have to diet for months to have that perfect body because all you need is that perfect lingerie and body support.

One advice I have for the brides is, always bring the undergarments that you'll be wearig on your wedding whenever you do gown fittings. ALWAYS! Because it will help the seamstress to adjust the gowns more accurately. Even a bra or underpants play a really important part to gowns fitting. Here are some pointers when you are shopping for body supports.

1) Shop for smooth bras that are smooth and free of embellishment, lace and beads will create a lumpy look.

2) Buy a variety of bras to see which style works best with your wedding dress. Before handing over your charge card, ask whether the store offers a full refund on items returned with tags attached.

3) Although a bra pad may be built into your wedding dress, wearng your own bra is often necessary to enhance the shape of your bust.

Here are some body supports that are available in the market;

1) Body Shaper
Slim the stomach, hips, thighs, and/or derriere.



2) Bustier
A tight-fitting top worn as a brassiere. V-backed versions, made with extra boning and stiff cups, can be found for low-back wedding dresses.



3) Cincher
A highly slimming, one-piece undergarment for full-figured brides.



4) Corset
The best strapless support available, this garment extends from above or below the bust to below the hips. Garters may be attached.



5) Girdle
Panty that helps to hold in the tummy

to all!!!!

Dear all,

please be informed that we will still be open as usual on this coming

Wedding Accessories Part 1 : Veils

Here are some of the tips and things should know when you are purchasing your veil or headpieces;

1) Always check your rear view when trying on a veil. To show off the back of your wedding dress, choose a sheer or single-layer design.

2) A simple, unembellished veil flatters an elaborate wedding dress best, while a classic gown can be paired with a plain or an ornate confection.

3) Any adornments on your veil should begin below the point at which your dress ornamentation ends—this way the two won’t compete.

4) Take a brisk walk with your headpiece to make sure that it stays firmly in place. You don’t want to lose it before you reach the altar.

5) Take your face shape into account when making your selection. A veil that falls straight down narrows a round, full visage; a waterfall design adds width to an oblong face. A square jaw benefits a longer veil, while a heart-shaped face looks best with a veil that falls behind the neck.

6) Planning to doff your veil after the "I do’s"? Invest in a headpiece—try a wide satin headband—that looks good without the tulle. The headpiece should have fabric hooks and loops or Velcro fasteners for easy veil removal.

7) Make sure your blusher veil is long enough to flip over your head.

In case you are still blurry about the terms used when it comes to veils, here are some pictures to help you out. As they say, picture says a thousand words ^_^V

a) Birdcage Veil (also known as birdcage veil)

A short, single layer worn over the face, then lifted back over the head during the ceremony.

b) Cathedral Veil

Trails two to three metres behind the wedding dress.

3) Chapel Veil

Extends a lil bit longer than the floor length.

4) Double Tier Veil (Double Layers Veil)

A veil of two layers, usually of different lengths (either two veils or a veil and blusher). It comes with a comb for easy wearing.

5) Elbow Length

Extends to the bride’s elbow.

6) Fingertip Length

Reaches fingertips when arms are relaxed; the most versatile style.

7) Flyaway

A multi-layered veil that just brushes the shoulders and gives a clear view of the back of the wedding dress.

8) Fountain Veil

A shoulder- or elbow-length veil gathered at the crown of the head and cascading around the face to form a "fountain" shape.

9) Mantilla Veil (or known as Lace Trim Veil)

A Spanish-inspired style: a piece of lace or lace-edged tulle, secured with a comb and framing the face; may be any length between elbow and ballet.


10) Ribbon-edge Veil

A veil with a line of ribbon stitched around its edge.

Taffeta Galore~


Everyone has their favorite type of fabric when it comes to making their dream wedding gown. Brides can choose from either using Duchess Satin, Chiffon, Charmeuse, Organza, Tulle etc. For me, my favorite fabric is TAFFETA.

Taffeta is a very light type of fabric. Lighter than Duchess Satin but more structured than Chiffon. Taffeta itself comes with some pattern on it's fabric making a very simple gown looks really beautiful. And the most interesting part about Taffeta is, it reflects when it is place against the light. For example, an olive green Taffeta will look like gold when it's placed at a different directions.

Neoromantic Bridal now have a few gowns made of Taffeta that are ready to be sold off the shelves.

Wedding Gown

Evening Gown

This is a red two-piece evening gown. The bodice is pleated to give it more shape. The bodice is a tie-back at the back so that you are free from worrying about looking for a tailor at the last minute when you lost more and more weight no thanks to stress. Gold color laces are also added at at the bottom of the skirt. After the wedding, you can also wear the top with jeans and look super hot in it.
