The making of hand-painted silk for a wedding dress starts with an in-depth discussion about the shape of the dress, the type of silk, the colours, and the overall design.
For this wedding dress, the bride chose warm and glowing tones: warm yellow, brick orange, deep red, and just a touch of green. She selected a beautiful heavier high-gloss satin silk, giving the dress a rich and elegant flow.
The skirt was designed as a full circle, allowing the hand-painted waves of colour to move beautifully from top to bottom when the bride walks and turns.
