ALL> updates on the findings of our CS recee trip yesterday….. a very HOT weather… almost can melt me ardy….
hope the below info is helpful for u gals….
Max Couture (Tailor: Wilson Ng)
Charges: from $300 onwards for a short CS & $500 onwards for a long CS (incl. workmanship + material)
Price will be higher depending on material used (he uses mostly satin for CS), types of lace (French lace is more ex than German lace), full lace also cost more, half lace is cheaper… according to him, laces alone is ardy very ex…
Alteration Fee: Free (u can go back to him to anytime to alter in case gain weight or lose weight b4 wedding, he can even cut off the long CS to a short one after ur wedding for free)
Time needed: abt 2 months (depending on the no. of orders he received & the dateline)
CS is more modern kind… he can make quite versatile CS… a long CS that can detach to become a short one… short can be worn during tea ceremony, then add on the tail for evening gown look…
There is also long type with small train, can place a ring at the end of the tail so that u can hook it up to become a normal long CS…
We saw 1 short black CS on display…. Very sexy, with diamond shape bare back… full german lace… another 1 was a hot pink long CS with tail & open slit in front… half French lace on the top portion
Zion Creation
Charges: from $250 onwards for short CS, think we din ask the price for a long CS… but according to thomas’ previous post was abt $300 above… for workmanship only, excl. material… not sure if need to buy our own material or they will get for us….
Time needed: abt 2 months (depending on the no. of orders they received & the dateline)
CS is kind of traditional… thou they hv lace ones… but we felt that the lace used r stiff… and the material used is quite thick kind…
They do sell OTR CS also… but most r short ones
Gold Scissors
Charges: $180 for short CS, $200+ for long CS
Alteration Fee: Free (except CNY period)
CS designs r also traditional… some r halter neck kind… they even hv those very “fu gu” kind… OTR CS r like less than $100
