Oh this topic! None other than the most exciting, prominent, memorable and sweetest part of my E-Day preparation :)

# PURCHASING THE KAIN
I choose CHIFFON SILK as the outer and SATIN SILK sebagai lining. These type of kain is non-washable one, tapi cantik. It's ok to dryclean sebab baju ni bukan pakai selalu pun. Both outer and lining yuyu beli kat Jakel KL. Total cost is about RM 3xx+. Sebab nak gaun yang kembang-kembang flowy, I bought 5.5m of Chiffon Silk and 4.0 of Satin Silk. Kalau dress biasa/ princess cutting, 4.0m dah cukup untuk yuyu yang petite ni.

# Always A DRESS ADMIRER.
Being a wedding fan since little, yuyu superloves dress very much. I love something yang nampak mewah but sweet at the same time. Afterall, my body type (pear) sangat sesuai untuk pakai dress yang kecik di bahagian pinggang dan kembang di bawah so that the lower part of my body wont look bigger than the upper part. One more, I won't look thin / thinner wearing a kembang dress. Another fairy-tale reason is because yuyu suka feeling-feeling princess bila gaun tu kembang-kembang melayang bila berjalan..it was really a confidence booster you know! ^^
# CHOOSING THE right DESIGN
# CHOOSING THE right DESIGN
Without hesitation, once e-day date was decided, the first step I do is to choose the design. Finding and choosing the right design means; the one that suits your body type, colour that suits your skin tone & theme of the day. Apart from googling, Yuyu beli Majalah Pengantin untuk dijadikan rujukan (oh my first time beli Magazine ni!). Sebelum ni suka tengok majalah pengantin tapi tak pernah beli lagi sebab takde kaitan. hehe. Luckily ada dress yang yuyu admire dalam Majalah tu, jadi siang malam tenung baju tu sebelum tunggu weekend untuk terjah Jakel pegi beli kain pulak. hehe
# COLOUR - DECIDED
Tang kaler memang tak takes time pun untuk buat keputusan sebab yuyu dah lama mengidam nak pakai kaler Hijau Turqouise. That's it. To give a different look on the colour, yuyu matched together SEA GREEN + TURQOUISE BLUE using different material. I love the blend of both colours mucho!
Dress asal dari tailor cuma plain je..tak sempat ambik gambar...sebab terlalu excited nak jahit manik..this one is after 1st stage bead work is finished.

The second and the third layer were the one bought for the dress.
# FINDING THE TAILOR who owns a pair of magic hands. ^^
This is the hardest and most challenging part. Panic. I have no idea yet experience jahit baju fesyen with any tailor in KL. Biasa duk jahit baju kurung/ kurung modern je kan so it is quite hard nak cari tailor yang charge reasonable price yet owns the magic hands (yang jahitannya kemas, cantik dan berkualiti). Kalau nak cari yang superb artwork DAN mahal senang je those famous fashion designer is there on the list, number fon pun merata dicanang kat internet tapi tang nak cari yang bagi good service within bajet ni yang susah. eheh. Yuyu punye bajet untuk upah is up to RM3xx je...taknak yang terlalu murah sebab takut tak menjadi seperti yang diimpi...
# Finally, DIANA LING.
Ish panjang sangatla kalau nak cerita from A to Z bab tailor ni..senang cerita, finally yuyu cuba jaya jahit dengan one Chinese Tailor named DIANA LING dekat Semua House. Yuyu berani pilih and cuba dengan Auntie Diana after tengok gambar-gambar wedding dress yang dia jahit dan baju yang dia siap jahit kat kedai dia oh semuanya cantik-cantik. Even she's a Chinese, dia has expertise jahit baju kahwin orang Melayu so it would be easy to make her understand what and how we want our suit to be like. Untuk design, yuyu just bawak Majalah Pengantin dan tunjuk pada auntie tu macamana yang yuyu nak cuma takde ape-ape perincian kecuali 5pcs of mushroom buttons at each side of lengan baju..kalau nak siap terus dengan perincian macam dalam majalah tu, the upah would be RM 5xx++. gulp. Yuyu mintak auntie siapkan my dress within a fortnight sebab nak jahit manik and everything takes time jugak..
# Finally, THE OUTCOME
I am very very and truly satisfied with the final product! First time fitting terus ngam, alhamdulillahhhh! Legaaa sangat rasa time ni, macam dah tak sabar-sabar nak bertunang! hehe *gatall
# BEADWORK by Lefthanded Yuyu
To tell you the truth, this is the first time yuyu rasa sangat2 excited untuk jahit manik. I can't even remember how long does it takes to finish all those beads work...sebab terlalu seronok buat. Yes, its the POWER OF LOVE ;) Untuk perincian, Yuyu cuma guna pearls, lace, crystal and swarovski of 3 different sizes & matched colours, all these yuyu beli dekat Syarikat Bunga Reben and Diamonds Swarovski beli dekat kedai area Jalan TAR (kedai beads yang korean owned). All of those cost me at about RM 1xx+.
I sooo want Royal Blue 3D flowers untuk jahit sekumtum dua pada dress tapi sampai ke sudah tak jumpa -jumpa the one made from organza...pasrah je...But 2 hours before majlis, i found crystal of emerald green my mom punye yang sangat cantik & berkilat (asalnya gelang tapi dah tercerai dari talinya)! Ape lagi...i took it and mula jahit dengan gigih sambil berdiri je...sebab taknak kasi berkedut baju yang dah siap iron.hehehe...*bila dikenang kembali saat tu sangatlah manis :)
