“I always say that working with brides is one of my favorite pursuits within my design realm. For starters, I love the rigorous attention to detail it demands, but also the opportunity for experimentation it presents. I am also a romantic at heart and to be tasked with something that represents a milestone in a woman's life is so humbling.” Mariel’s dress took approximately 6 months to create. During that finalfitting, I saw Mariel’s expression in the mirror and I felt an overwhelming sense of accomplishment. My mother, Vera and my daughter, Sofia, had been part of the process as well— we were all so happy with the result.”
