A splash of Fuscia

This is my lovely bride Daria. She was about 5 or 6 months or maybe 7 months pregnant. I love the berries and  flowers in her hair. Hence the fuscia ribbon.



Because Daria was pregnant, it was important to make a dress that flattered her new shape without hiding it or showing it off. We wanted something that was soft and romantic, so the under layer was a silk satin which was cut quite close to the figure and then over the top were silk chiffon pieces coming from the under bust which could move as they wished when she walked. Having these pieces dropping from this point gave the dress a sense of elongation. The hem looks nice and swishy in the sea breeze too.

I always feel a little weird about the kissing photos but at least in this photo they're doing a nose kiss!

I think it's nice that their baby got to go the wedding also.
