Wedding Dress Inpiration | RIME ARODAKY

Wedding Dress Inpiration | RIME ARODAKY

Since I am working on wedding dresses, my eyes naturally go towards beautiful gowns as I browse through the internet. I wanted to share this French designer, Rime Arodaky. Her designs are beautiful – free spirited, beautiful shape to flatter your body and unexpected back details and cut outs. If you’ve been reading my blog, you know how I have a weak spot for cutouts!

I wish to bring this kind of wedding dresses to Japanese market. Many Japanese brides go for princessy, 18th century ball gown-ish, puffy wedding dresses. The part of the reasons seem like that is what is mostly available in the market. It is more common for the brides to do the rental wedding dresses in Japan, and the dress boutiques have more of the princess line, fluffly dresses than simple A-line or mermaid dresses. Perhaps another reason is the body type – it might be hard to pull off the dresses like Rime Arodaky’s if you are short like many Asian girls are. Whatever the reasons maybe, I would like to bring more of this kind of dresses to Japan as I think they are beautiful and comfortable. You don’t want to spend your wedding day being uncomfortable!

P.S. My past bridal gown work can be viewed here. Also my etsy shop here.

Some recent pins from my “Baby” board on Pinterest.  I need to rename it to “Kids” or something, as Kiko grows up, I am pinning more and more toddler stuff these days. I love these little girl’s outfits. So sassy and chic. Because of the amount of time Kiko spends with Andy, she is always in sweatpants and t-shirts, but I am making her a pink coat that matches with mine. Can’t wait to share the progress of the coat!

Pinterestの”Baby“ボードにかわいい子供服をいろいろピンしてます。
うちの子はもうすぐ3歳になるので、ボードの名前をBabyからKidsとかに変えなきゃなと思うんですが。。。

PinterestはiPhone用のアプリも使いやすくて、電車の中とか、ちょっと時間潰したいときによく見てます。
今年はこのピンク色のコートを自分用に作ったのですが、布が1mほど余ったので、娘にもお揃いで今作成中です。ChieSignature

NYFW pinspiration by vivat veritas

I enjoyed the NYFW photos that popped up on my instagram and Pinterest readers last week. Did you follow the NYFW? What was your favorite?
1. Can’t get enough of the all white outfit. Joie Spring 2014.
2. Alexander Wang always offers fresh and new take on the yearly trend. I don’t know how wearable this is, but still like the new way to show off the midriff.
3. I love the jumpsuit and colorful tote combination from the NYFW street style snap.
4. Such a stylish mom-to-be!
5. Colorful and boxy silhouette outfits from J. Crew.
6. Midi length skirts were everywhere in the NYFW street style. This one with jewels all over is amazing, combined with a white tank and colorful clutch. This midi skirt is also my favorite.

Follow me on Pinterest for more (my Fashion inspiration board is here)! xx
