Fabric question (for BM dresses)


Recommended Posts

hey. so the girls love this dress and we're going this sat to try it on. we may use that bm dress website and order the dress there so its cheaper too, but thats another thread when i cross that bridge. ANYWAY- i do have a question though b/c im not sure. this dress is "silk de chine" ? will that show every bump and detail? last night a bm asked me what the fabric was b/c they realized it might be too "silky" and werent sure of that. it looks like its alil thicker but im no expert. anyopne have info on this?

"Silk Crepe de Chine - A surprisingly lightweight but well-behaved crepe with a little more texture than 4 ply crepe. Yarns are tightly twisted together during weaving which produces an excellent drape. This versatile silk makes up well in blouses, dresses, men’s shirts as well as for home décor, even for jacket linings."

 

I'd say it will be thicker than what you normally think of a silk dress being, but it will probably not be as forgiving as some fabrics. Spankx should take care of that though, especialy if most of your girls are on the smaller side.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
