Wilson will nag u to give him a PS picture of the CS u made with him.
He will usually draw the CS on de spot so that u can see roughly what it is going to be like. It is also very important to tell him what is your problem areas that you wanna improve, so that he will design accordingly.
Guinguin, hm.. how about darkish silver? something like pewter color. It is more generic color and can be worn after wedding. Oh yeah.. get a comfortable height too. If it is too high, your walking style will be affected and it will look ugly if u do not walk properly. hiaks!

Thank you girls for your input!
Guinguin, saw your question on the colour of your shoes. I second darkish silver! Or try champagne gold (but it has to be right shade so that it comes off as shimmery).

Guinguin, could you kindly give me a price range of your short CS? No need for exact numbers. i understand that the cost will differ on the fabric and the details.
I plan to tailor a short sleeveless one with Wilson (short as in mid calf) as i already have a long one made with Amor Meuu.

My wedding just over last month. same date with msclaire mei nu with a sexy back.
I prefer getting my own materials as I can choose the many designs out there, and just pay for the workmanship. Wilson has alot of materials but it is not as many as what u can find from royal fabrics and other places.
Anyway when I saw Wilson just before my wedding to make certain amendments (he put extra lace to cover my fats around the armpits) he was saying he is so biz rushing out dresses for CNY and weddings, any new orders may need 2 months or more liao.
Wilson has a very good after sales service also. When I brought my CS back for the amendments, he had not only amended the changes and also steam ironed my CS. My CS is made of thai silk so it creases easily and of course when I brought it in the time, it was full of creases and Wilson went.. "aiyer.. why never keep properly" and nagged abit.

Can btbs tell me usually which part of the day will you be wearing cheongsum? Tea ceremony or as evening gown? Will it be weird if I wear it during tea ceremony and evening gown? In fact, like all btbs, I intend to wear it for tea ceremony and for sending guests off. But I am afraid I do not have the time to change as I prefer to mix and mingle with guests. Any suggestions?
Lastly, can I know roughly how much Wilson charged for workmanship? TIA.

Guinguin : that's a good one. I agreed with you. Can you show me your CS? Very keen to take alook.
How many times does the btbs go down to Wilson before confirmation? Do I need to bring my own design there? Or he will have alot of pictures to show me? How much does he charged for workmanship? Lastly, is Wilson a friendly person to work with?
I am in a dilemma as I do not know if I should replace the usual EG to cheongsum. Will I look too oriental? My htb has no opinion on this. He said as long as I am happy. But I am confused. My AD is in Oct, photo shoot in June/July. So I got to get the cheongsum done if I am really intending to wear it. Headache.
