Aileen’s Wedding!
I just had the most incredible experience with one of my brides! Aileen Keng is what you might call a designer’s dream! She is very tall, slim and was more than willing to put her entire trust in me. Trust is a very important thing to have when you’re dealing with a fashion designer, because we really feel and value this. Most especially when it comes to one of the most important garments that a woman will wear…her wedding gown.
Aileen came to me right after I did her cousin’s wedding. Immediately, I wanted to do a Mermaid silhouette for her. Her long and lean figure would be perfect for this.

Her wedding gown has several elements. Pleating, lace, embroidery, beading, floral and feather work. However I think I was able to strike a very good balance of putting all of those together.
Her entourage was inspired by my love of Origami. I also wanted to do something unusual in terms of coloring like mixing three shades of pink with the most vivid Chartreuse. I thought that this was really fun and festive. Let me share with you some photos from that lovely day! To Aileen! Thank you for trusting me with your wedding! I will always cherish the memories!

The view from her bridal suite at the Sofitel Hotel! I love the color of pool blue. It is always so refreshing to the eye.
HUGS!
RAJO!
