What does a wedding dress represent? For the bride, a bespoke dress tells her story and marks the beginning of a beautiful new chapter in her life. The story of this custom cheongsam dress for @charlenealenaliang can also be expressed in numbers & time taken to craft it. 84 spools of silk thread in 21 different colors, 16 spools of zari thread in 4 different colors, thousands of beads and pearls, with 1260 hours of hand embroidery. . . .
