Azadeh Studio

Azadeh is not cheap, so keep that in mind. However, she�s not the most expensive out there, either. If your other option is some super expensive couture gown, Azadeh might be a good alternative. Or, if you just really want a well made gown made entirely out of silk, she�s the woman for you. I almost had a fiasco on my hands when at my second to last fitting, the top overlay portion of my dress was finally put on and it looked *nothing* like the pictures of dresses I showed her. And even though she showed me a simple sketch of hers, I wasn�t able to picture in my head what she had in her head. It was a class case of miscommunication on both sides! I thought I just about wasted all this money and even contacted a friend who does costume design to be ready to build a backup dress in 4 weeks. Luckily for me, though, Azadeh understands and believes that good business is based on her reputation. She changed the overlay portion to make it look like what I wanted. She really impressed me and made me happy. When I went in for the next fitting, the dress was so much better and I was so much happier! I didn�t need a backup dress and I felt pretty for the first time. The thing I would warn *some* people about is if you are unevenly overweight (like me!) and if you want a dress that truly acts like a corset or girdle and helps cover up some or a lot of your flaws� I�d consider a different dress or designer. Whom or what, I don�t know. That wasn�t really an option for me since I�m so tall *and* overweight (which is why I chose a designer in the first place). I had a difficult time getting proper undergarments, and when you wear a silk dress, it shows so much. (She only works in silk, but I love that.) I love my dress, but I still have an imperfect body. ;)
