Prom Tales 2014: Part 1

Wow! It's hard to believe that it has been that long since my last post *covers face*. There's another new year's resolution that ought to be worked on in this second half of this very fast paced year. It has been an amazing one indeed, extremely hectic but I'm so grateful for it. This also means that I have lots to share with you and hopefully I can keep churning them out more frequently for you to see :)

This prom season has also been an exciting one, I have done a total of 6 dresses with colours ranging from pastels to nudes to brights! I will be sharing them with you in this year's edition of Prom Tales.

First of is Praise who isn't a new face on the blog. ( http://www.wurafola.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/back-in-time-50s.html ) For her year 11 prom, she wanted a mint green dress and was really into a dress she'd seen on Nicole Scherzinger. Together we worked to create her vision. Styled with a very elegant updo bun by Jadoy Hair and a vintage brooch, Praise looked ever so stunning.

I think this will make for a lovely bridesmaid dress. Brides don't worry about being upstaged by your bridesmaids looking glam, they will only make you look better! ;)

My Flosstastic Dentist!

lololol for lack of a better title. Everyone meet my brilliant, hot and fun dentist, Chanpreet!

I met Chanpreet in a very interesting way. Long story short, sometime last year, I needed a good dentist and she needed a dress made for a friend's ghanian wedding. My brother was one of her patients and so he linked us up! Woop! I got my treatments done and few months later, I got to make her a dress. Chanpreet is such a lovely, down to earth person. She owns a nice & stylish private dental practice with her husband in Victoria called Hermes(doesn't get more fashionable than this! lol ); yet she opts to work in my local NHS practice for a few days a week, because "what about the less privileged?!" such a kind heart! 

When we had a consultation, she told me the colours for the wedding were blue and yellow and she wanted a long fitted african print dress. I had to get the print and make sure that she'd like it. So when Chanpreet walks in for her fitting, and the first thing she says is: "I love the print", I feel so relieved. She has a great body and she sure turned heads at the wedding, getting me a few clients in return. Here's what she had to say about her dress: 

"I am so happy with the amazing dress Wura made me. It was so comfortable to wear and fit me perfectly! Everyone at the wedding was so impressed with my traditional outfit. I can't wait for my next bespoke dress! Thank you Wura! xo"

Me & Chanpreet :)

 Here's a few more pics at the actual wedding, I love the gold purse!
