Vivat Veritas Wedding Dress in Process4Here are some photos of what I’ve been working on. It’s a Wedding Dress for a bride who is having her wedding on beach. She and her husband’s hobby is surfing, so the location of the wedding is perfect for them. I came up with something light and easy to move around in for this special occasion. The top has scalloped lace over layed on satin. The bra cup is attached to the top, so the bride can wear the dress without a bra. The skirt is two layers of gathered chiffon skirt, and the lining is 100% silk satin, which feels so luxurious on the skin. back scalloped wedding dress sketch and inspiration vivat veritasThe pictures above are the inspiration photo and my sketch.

tiffany blue bridesmaid dress by vivat veritas1 copy

Hello! Just wanted to share some of the sewing projects I have been working on recently. The above is the Midriff cutout dress in Tiffany blue as a bridesmaid dress. It’s available in more than 40 different colors! (Check out the last photo of the listing). The Kimono wrap shown below is one of my best sellers since 2012. It’s perfect as a beach cover-up; also available in six different colors. sheer kimono wrap by viavt veritas1 tiffany blue dress and kimono wrap by vivat veritas white lace dress in process by vivat veritas1

This one is a custom wedding party dress. In Japan, sometimes a couple throws a separate party after the wedding ceremony, just with friends. This will be a little bohemian inspired dress. white lace dress in process by vivat veritas2 white lace dress in process by vivat veritas3Lastly, here is a short video of the behind the scenes of the photoshoot I posted on facebook page recently. I worked with Elissa, who modeled here, here and here. We shot at the cutest studio in Shibuya. They location is full of beautiful and delicate antiques like a chandelier, alarm clock, phone, match boxes and tea cups. You can buy the items displayed in the studio too! The background music I put in the video is “Young and Beautiful” by Lana Del Ray.

Build-a-Dress:: Moroccan Tea Glass Dress

By

build a dress by vivatveritas2

I still remember the time my host family in the U.S. took me to get “build-a-bear” at a mall when I was in high school. I know it was for little kids, but I enjoyed the experience nonetheless. I picked the heart and put sole into it, stare in amazement as the bear was pumped with some fluff, picked clothes and shoes. I don’t know what happened to the bear (it might have gotten lost during so many moves), but the excitement of building the bear stayed.

As I came up with the idea of “build-a-dress“, I wanted it to be as exciting for my customers as it was for me as at the build-a-bear store. Thankfully, Spoonflower offers so many different fabric options from many fabric designers in the world! The one I recently made is with “Moroccan tea glass” fabric by miss bluemchen fabrics.
