I don't like to wear bathrobe or lingerie robe during preparation kasi parang panahon pa ata ng mama ko yun hehehe. I saw this blog of a bride na her designer made a dress exactly like her bridesmaid for her wedding prep. Kaya it gave me an idea na magpatahi ng dress instead na robe. Pero ang problem with her pictures, ndi mo na alam sino yung bride sa pictures niya with her bridesmaids na they were gathered around the wedding gown on the molder.
So instead of pink or light brown dress, I opted for the chocolate brown para maiba (ndi na akong mukhang bridesmaid, para na ako yung make up artist! hehe). Hindi pa yan yung final belt, sobra lang yan sa tela ng damit ni Georgia. Sa davao na ako maghahanap ng tela na lighter pink.
I got it awhile ago from the sastre, ang luwang na nga kasi pumayat ako from the time of fitting. May maganda rin naidulot yung sobrang busy ko sa work kasi pumayat ako na ndi ko nalalaman. Biruin nyo ba naman, ndi na ako nag mmeryenda or dinner for almost two weeks para mahabol lang yung deadline. Ayoko kasing may maiwang work during vacation kaya kayod kalabaw, and of course para sa diet na rin. hehehe. Buti na lang I have a planner or else nag nervous breakdown na ako. =)
I bought the tela together with the entourage's at Tutuban Centermall. Tip lang don't buy dun sa Tutuban mall na may dalawang escalator sa entrance. It's more expensive there and konti lang yung choices. Go to the mall across, yung may mga food stalls, just go inside and you will find wedding gowns, barongs..etc.. and when you walk farther, you will find the textiles. Almost 25% cheaper than the big Tutuban mall. The cheapest and widest selection is the store named Blue Chip.
I bought the chiffon for P45 per yard na 60 width and the lining for P20. But when I inquired at Glorietta, they sell it for P100! exact type of tela. Then sa Tutuban mall it costs P55.
My sastre is Aling Fe whose shop is at Liwayway Street JP Rizal. Magaling siya and marami syang mananahi so ndi ka matatakot na baka ndi niya matapos on time. Labor for that dress costs P600. Sayang nga kulang yung tela nabili ko, more shearing pa sana. Aling Fe's contact number is 870-5649. What's good about her is her shop opens until 12 am or longer. Walang problem sa pag appointment, so okay na okay for a working bride like me. Her specialty actually are gowns, nung kinuha ko nga yung dress ko, she was doing Sarah Geronimo's dress. hehehe showbiz.
