Gosh here we are only just into January and already I am putting together ideas for brides here in Marbella. Will keep posting them as I design them. This bride has emailed me and cannot decide between pink or red, yet the combination of the two will be far more stunning than just one colour. We also have such bright colours here in Spain with the fuschia buganvillas and red hibiscus this colour scheme will work so well with any event here in Spain.

Photo Shoot Los Monteros

Well finally after a busy Christmas and getting ready for 2008 we kickstarted off with the photo shoot at Los Monteros and of course it was cloudy, cold and damp so inside we went.

We did manage to get a few shots outside though, note the grey skies!

Here is my beach theme, turquoise with cream paper orchids, shells, white pebbles and turquoise crystals.

These are my photos but when I receive the images from Los Monteros I will post those on, sure they will be a lot better than mine!

Fait Accompli

A recently completed custom wedding dress inspired by the graceful pleats and folds of a Grecian gown. The fabric is a wonderful silk-cotton blend. It has just enough sheen to convey a kind of stately luxury, but it's so breezy and comfortable to wear. It's all dressed up by the trim--gold silk organza frayed on the bias, layered under beaded embroidery. The wedding will be at a family estate in Gloucester, Connecticut, and I imagine the bride sweeping over the lawns overlooking the sea, a loose tangle of wildflowers in her hand...

Fearless in fuchsia

I love Joanna. Her sense of style and adventure when it comes to clothes are a dream for a designer. She had me whip up this very simple shift for her in the loudest, loveliest shade of hot pink. In that color--the color of azaleas, popsicles and grandma's lipstick all rolled into one--the crisp lines and '60s silhouette just look so terribly chic. Notice the kelly green shoes? Love Joanna. Love her.
