Hi bows, yes, I already got my dress -- right before the MLK holiday in January. My wedding isn't until June, so, like I said, I allowed for PLENTY of time to get it done right. I honestly don't know much about wedding dresses, but my family is
in the tailoring business, so I can easily tell that A LOT of work went into my dress. It is very sparkly (i.e., lots of small, intricate beading), but at the same time not gaudy.
I think it also helped that I am Chinese, and so I am used to using any means necessary to make myself understood by Chinese people -- w/a lot of simple English and detailed pictures to Milly. I might post the dress again here, with me
wearing it, once I have the bust altered as I mentioned above.
