If I was Wearing Red…

If I was wearing a red bridal gown…. I would’ve ordered this one.  It’s by Mehdi, a designer known for outfits that are more classic than modern.  It’s an outfit he showed at the first Bridal Couture week back in November 2010.  Love it!!   His design isn’t nearly as modern as someone like Nomi Ansari Pakistani bridal gown but just a simple idea that is just a gorgeous style.

Mehdi Red Lengha

I’m just so in love with the thick border at the bottom and the fine detailing.  The neck embroidery also makes me super happy because it’s pretty “heavy”.  This outfit almost makes me regret not getting a red lengha…. almost.

My Wedding Dress Arrived….

Sooo I’m pretty excited about this but my wedding dress (a gharara) from Pakistan got in 2 weeks ago!

I ordered it based off a photo, and the colors are spot on and look incredibly beautiful.  That was my biggest nightmare…. the colors looking off and not good.  Thankfully, the colors are JUST what I wanted and I could not be happier.

I just don’t know what to do about a couple of things on the outfit.  I’ve only shown it to like three people, and they all like it, but I’m having issues with the top.  I think it needs more embroidery.  I don’t know… I just told my mom and she just told me that she doesn’t want to send it back.  I don’t know what to do!! We spent a lot of money and I don’t think it’s BAD, it is just NOT what I expected.  I had a different idea in mind for the embroidery on the top and the photo reflected that too… but the outfit doesn’t have it.

Those are the risks you take when you order based on a photo.   I just realized that we spent as much as I probably would have ordering directly from another designer.

Maybe I’m just stressing, and don’t get me wrong, I LOVE my outfit.  I really truly do.  Just not sure what to do.

Oh also! My dress for the Macedonian event is ready!!!  YAY!  I have to pick it up this weekend.
