My Cheongsam/Qi pao
I still haven't decided what type of Chinese wedding dress I would like. I am really not into the traditional ones. I don't like the traditional RED color wedding dress either.
Here are some ideas.
I saved this pic from a while back. It's a really pretty lavender with embroidary. This would make a nice day time dress but not a evening time dress. I was trying to figure out how do I fit in all the dress changes and photo opportunities.
I will ask the photographers if it's possible for a photo session Friday afternoon in the Chinese Scholars Garden (just pay the fee) with the light colored Cheongsam on.
Then head over to the rehearsal dinner.
In the evening, if I have a custom Cheongsam made, I would like it to be dramatic. I was thinking of something like this but with the halter collar to have the Cheongsam style with the Frog buttongs. I like the back too here. Tight dresses don't look good on me because I am short and thick.
