@preciousthaisilk

  
Thai silk is a more affordable version of Silk.  Silk is a raw material; beautiful; difficult to work with as it frays and sometimes limited in colour.  Therefore someone in the world created the silk finish in a million colours at a cost we all love. 

Ms.P(client in pictures) came to me looking for a dress for a wedding; and another from a picture she had.  We decided on blue...or specifically sky blue for the wedding outfit; an off the shoulder straight dress.  And the second dress was a lemon two piece outfit which I did not favour at all.

The blue dress became a dusty pink dress after our first fitting.  Ms.P hated the shade of blue I had chosen!  Error no.1 = Never confirm colour via pictures = Lesson learned.  Colour always changes according to the light; it is better to see a physical sample than a picture.  The final product is a fitted dress with chiffon floral detailing on the shoulder.

I fell in love with the lemon dress as it moulded into something worth wearing.  By the time I did the buttons (which I am highly proud of!) I wanted to keep the little top for myself .  It enhances the figure; hugs the bust ; plus we kept the detailing to a minimum with a ribbon and little rosettas. Love it.
