The Tapestry In Which All Threads Are Weaved

this is the dress that i wore at the BLOGGERS UNITED 2 bazaar last saturday, and everyone seemed to want it. haha.

i’ve had this concept for a dress in my head for months now, and i thought the holiday season would be the perfect excuse to finally have it made. this beauty here was constructed with a lovely brocade fabric (with a fleur-de-lis-esque print), while the black trimmings are all velvet. i love the lush – but effortless – elegance they all exude… really quite apt for christmas, don’t you think? (:

thank you to my colleague (and seatmate!) lorraine for making this for me!

brocade dress – custom-made
maryjanes – carmelettes
quilted purse – vintage

PS
sorry for the bipolar editing of the photos in this set. i think i was half-asleep when i tweaked them. haha.
