Designing the Dress
Keshia combined vintage and
modern fabrics to create her
gorgeous gown. “I found a quirky
dress on Etsy made from recycled
vintage dresses, and in the end
decided to just keep the outer
skirt.
I called in the help of a friend,
Simmone, and we went fabric
shopping and chose the materials
together. She came up with a
design that would suit me and
the champagne, vintage glamour
look I was going for. She had to
hand sew the entire dress due to
the beading detail, so it was only
ready the day before the wedding!
I was very impressed with her
effort and the outcome was
amazing.
On the day I was able to
remove the outer skirt after the
ceremony and just wear the slim
fitting dress for the reception.
This was especially handy as
the temperature was over 40
degrees!”
