To achieve a harmonious and elegant wedding suit, it is not always necessary to use a single fabric throughout the ensemble. At Trend, we combine different fabrics to add depth and sophistication to the attire, to better reflect each client’s individuality.
Designing a bespoke suit for a spirited, young groom involves carefully selecting a fabric that captures his essence. The luxurious scarlet fabric was specifically chosen to mirror the groom's personality and radiant smile.
Trend Custom Tailors offers Dormeuil’s new Spring 2024 luxury cloth collection of tailored garments for both men and women.
In bespoke tailoring, individual patterns are created considering not only basic measurements but also posture, preferences, and desired style. As a result, bespoke garments cater to a broader range of body types and preferences, offering more flexibility than standard sizing, and are typically done under one roof.
The team of Trend created a model dress named on behalf of the name of 306; “Michelle”, inspired by the dress-to-kilt theme, meticulously crafted this eye-catching design for our patron,
We take a lot of pride in the people who walk through Trend’s doors; every consultation or fitting welcomes a new connection or re-establishes a lost one. Our genealogy grows in this way, and we can often trace back a garment’s inception in addition to the lovely patrons that they were made for and why.
We take a lot of pride in the people who walk through Trend’s doors; every consultation or fitting welcomes a new connection or re-establishes a lost one. Our genealogy grows in this way, and we can often trace back a garment’s inception in addition to the lovely patrons that they were made for and why.
After 51 years in business, we are pleased to ring in the new year (fashionably late of course) with our first ever issue of the Sartorial Dispatch, an exclusive newsletter curated by Trend Custom Tailors. We hope to evoke just as much excitement and fascination as the moment you first stepped into our home to the time you got to finally see your garment in its entirety.
The featured Bespoke Jacket of this writing was commissioned and is indicative of a change in the “feel” of what a suit can project these days post-Covid. It has a very traditional look but with an exaggerated interesting white slub yarn giving the traditional flannel cloth by Dormeuil a new contemporary twist and texture.
To welcome the spring, Trend Custom Tailors have created a unique and stylish jacket that showcases their exceptional craftsmanship and design skills.
This beautiful dress is made with Silk and Organza. They are the perfect combination, silk for a luxurious, soft hand feel, and organza for a bit of volume and movement.
Our house believes that the bomber jacket can bring a creative twist to office wear in the post-pandemic era, especially during the winter season. This unique combination of formal and casual elements creates a special and distinctive look.
This Bomber Jacket boasts a timeless design coupled with high-quality fabrics, ensuring durability, and an extra touch of luxury. The jacket is crafted with lightweight olive-green corduroy and warm tan wool viscose blend fabric, This fabric feels soft to the touch and has a rich weight to it. Therefore, it exudes elegance and guarantees comfort in every season.
In the world of men's fashion, this unique Nehru Jacket undergoes a meticulous production process. Highest and unusual types of quality materials are selected to ensure a garment that not only looks exceptional when combined together but also stands the test of time.
This dress was commissioned by an elegant, beautiful and accomplished dental practitioner for a friend’s wedding in a beautiful destination location in Italy.
As the holidays were nearing, we suggested a statement-making fabric from Dormeuil's Celebration collection. It's a fabric we know fairly well as we have used it before in the making of a festive suit. The cloth is rendered in black with a geometric pattern woven with a luxurious thread in a silver overcast.
This bespoke jacket was influenced both by the architecture of cathedrals as well as the installation art we have adorning the various floors of our house. The skeletal ribbed vaults and buttresses of stone echo in the ribbed channeling on the lapel, collars and pockets. The textile of the jacket is from Scabal in a Donegal worsted wool patterning, it offers a wonderful all season weight which is versatile and appropriate for many occasions and venues. When closely observing the jacket, it is rich in character and texture with red, white, gold and blue speckles which add depth to its blue base.
Dr. J, a Naturopathic doctor, came to Trend with a unique idea for a custom coat. This unique idea would be the collaboration of her profession and bespoke craftsmanship. Dr. J is an individual who believes that the people and places she surrounds herself with, the clothes she wears, the food she eats and how she practices medicine are all based upon principles of high-quality and customized care. The well-respected doctor wanted a piece that was an extension and expression of the aforementioned principles.
This week we had the opportunity to work with young singer/songwriter and guitarist Lyric Dubee for some music-inspired clothing. In this first part, we feature his jacket in progress. Lyric has played the guitar since the age of 9. His clothing speaks to that passion with an embroidered skull with frats and head stocks on the cuffs and shoulders. The blue and green kaleidoscopic pattern mimics Houndstooth and is a youthful take on a vintage fabric in English worsted wool. The inside is half lined back with leather details in light blue and orange.
A.T. has returned to commission another wonderful piece this time out of fabric taken from Dormeuil's 'Celebration' collection.
Today's feature patron is one of our most expressive commissioners to date. He is a man who isn't afraid of prints, patterns or standout colour.
Last month, we began working on a colourful and creative suit for a Sikh wedding. As mentioned in part I of this project, Sikh weddings are quite vibrant when it comes to decor and costume. With our client tired of modern men wearing simple black suits to such an expressive and traditional occasion, he decided to go against the grain and mix his modernism with a bit of traditional flair.
This Breanish Tweed country sport jacket currently underway is a another one of those special pieces that our atelier has become known for. This patron was inspired by the Norfolk hunting jacket which can be found on this blog. The wool it’s made of comes from one of the great weaving areas of Great Britain; renowned worldwide for its Tweed.
This week we have an embroidered western-inspired shirt with details worthy of attention. The shirt was commissioned by a wife for her husband as a gift. The gentleman (who enjoys hunting) lost one of his favourite shirts and his wife came in to request that the shirt be redone in the same style with different textiles. The black twill shirting is by Thomas Mason and the Floral print from Testa S.P.A
When people think of bridal fashion, their minds often immediately run to the bride and bridesmaids. What kind of dress will the bride wear? Tulle skirt or column gown? Train or exaggerated veil? What colour scheme will the bridesmaids be in? All valid questions while awaiting the much anticipated arrival of the bridal party and while a voluminous princess gown or beaded mini dress are pleasing to look at, a brightly coloured tuxedo can make just as many heads turn. So is the case with our featured patron . This show-stopping dandy came to us determined to look just as attention-grabbing as any bride on their big day.
Stand out. Be noticed.
This is assured with this side vented sports jacket.
Made from 313 gm all season Ariston wool, it features peaked labels with pick stitching. The Milanese button hole is accented with orange hand tacking.
Seems an old fashioned word, doesn’t it?
At Trend Custom Tailors, it’s not old fashion, it is the fashion.
Overcoats have been a staple of many this winter with the cold temperatures pushing extremes of -38 C in our fair Toronto. The increasing interest in overcoats is not only due to the weather but also due to style. Large coats have been featured on the runways of London, Milan and Paris this past season for both Men and Women. Getting a bespoke overcoat is always a good investment. If you are looking for a designer coat it will range anywhere from $1000 – to $5000 and for that cost a bespoke coat is a much more personal and customisable option. This particular overcoat features a hand made lapel and front buttonhole, double jetted flap pockets and a notch collar in charcoal grey which is versatile and matches any colour or pattern.
Inspired by a photograph in a magazine, this fuchsia wedding dress was graded and dyed in-house, from dark to light pink. The corset is backed with steel boning, while the exquisite white hibiscus flowers were hand painted with silk paint which gives light, feathery white accents to the vibrant pink gown. The fabric used is 18 momme satin silk. Momme is a Japanese unit of measurement traditionally used to describe the weight of silk fabric.
This Holland & Sherry triple window pane sherry tweed, double-sided rolling three Norfolk hunting jacket with a bi-swing back is one of our special projects of 2012. It is nspired by the Norfolk hunting jackets of the late 1800′s.
Fall has transitioned to winter in Toronto almost overnight and our patrons have responded accordingly.
Overcoats need to provide the wearer with more than just protection against harsh Canadian winters. We created this custom overcoat in the winter of 2011.
Today's feature is a young and vibrant gentleman who came to us requesting a suit for his winter wedding.
Utilizing fabric from the Italian-made United Silks & Woolens' Vitale Barberis Canonico collection, this suit is done in a grey so dark it almost looks black. The three-piece suit is complete with a single pleat trouser, basic five-button vest and a sharp jacket outfitted with a linked button closure. This closure allows the wearer to have versatility with the closing of his suit jacket.
Today's feature patron is a man who believes in looking as good as the times he likes to have. Brought to us by another patron of ours, this gentleman has become a Trend loyalist in his own right.
In the late summer of 2011, we began consultations for a bespoke couture dress. From planning to execution, the Chandelier Karmazyn Rose wedding dress was a stunning example of delicate detail and formal design. Multiple muslin fittings and dress fittings took place over the better part of three months, shaping and transforming the silk into a one-of-a-kind dress inspired by the Karmazyn crimson rose.
This Dormeuil three-piece suit was created for a young groom after the unexpected closing of the store from which he had purchased his wedding suit just weeks prior to his wedding. Chronicled in a Toronto Star article by Ellen Roseman, his story was brought to our attention by a member of the Trend Custom Tailors team. Lucas and his lovely bride-to-be, Sarah, were immediately invited to Trend to see if we could help the young groom get back on track with his wish for a bespoke suit for his wedding.
A longstanding patron brought in an overcoat we created for him last year. The open lapels on this classic wool overcoat were a bit too open at time and our patron wanted to know if there was a solution, as it had served him well through the previous winter.
This bespoke Holland & Sherry black and grey herringbone tweed overcoat was entirely created in-house. It presented a wonderful opportunity to experiment with style and function. Fall weather in Toronto was perfect for our clients to work with us to design unique stylish yet classic garments from traditional hand-woven cloth that transition through the seasons.
Created for the winter 2012-13 season, this Holland and Sherry Sherry Kash cropped casual country sport jacket by Trend Custom Tailors references the traditional English shooting jackets with a right shoulder guard leather detail.
Four leather-welted pockets adorn the front of this jacket, including the barchetta (“little boat”) curved breast pocket and the ticket pocket, adding a stylish and contemporary twist. The natural shoulder is reinforced by strategically placed hand-tacks.
The shawl collar on this Dormeuil Celebrations three-piece suit is a stylish yet classic change from the typical peak or notch lapels. This continuous curve lapel, usually seen on the dinner jacket or tuxedo jacket, has increasingly become more diverse. While timeless in style, recently the shawl collar has been more visible on the red carpet as seen here, with the latest version being the “shrunken shawl collar”. Our version of the shawl collar jacket features a two-button convertible jacket with fly-front surgeon’s cuffs.
The most recent issue of TCHAD Quarterly gives its readers an exclusive look inside our atelier. The four-page feature details the custom artwork that takes inspiration from our garments and simultaneously inspires the bespoke experience of Trend Custom Tailors. Eternal thanks to our wonderful friends at TCHAD for including us in their special edition ART ISSUE.
This multistripe two-button Vital Barberis Canonico Perennial suit features slanted, welted pockets and hand-worked buttonholes. The classic notch lapel enhances the versatility of this single-breasted suit.
Trend Custom Tailors recently created this bespoke tab-collar “rolling three” sport jacket. The Bateman Ogden Donegal tweed with windowpane overlay provides the wide-ranging colour palette for the jacket details including the pieced-melton undercollar, interior lining, buttonholes and surgeon’s cuffs.
This smokey grey-blue two button velvet sport jacket with peak lapels features traditional four button surgeon’s cuffs and side vents.
The top button of this two button jacket is actually comprised of two buttons and allows for buttoning in two distinct fashions. This convertible front, also known as a “mess kit closure” or “kissing front”, draws reference from the convertible shirt sleeve cuffs that allow wearers the option of buttoning in traditional barrel cuff fashion or the more formal french cuff style.
Giving your loved one the gift of bespoke clothing isn’t a common practice, but perhaps it should be. One of our patrons gifted his girlfriend a bespoke piece for her birthday, to be made to her specifications. This young lady is an accountant in the financial district with an eye for detail and colour. The vibrant blue of the Jodek cloth she chose complements her while the cut of the suit flatters her figure. We decided to keep it versatile by making both trousers and a skirt. This way the bespoke suit jacket could be worn with either or paired with a dress for more of a evening look.
When a pair of lawyers came to us for some bespoke suits and sport jackets, we immediately knew we had an interesting project on our hands. The partners work in sport and entertainment law, serving athletic institutions, athletes, the music industry, musicians, and many other forms of entertainment businesses. With the world of sports and entertainment as wild as it is, cases involving high-profile clientele means being visible. Both men needed to be dressed a little flashier than your standard finance or business lawyer. Who ever said that law couldn’t be fun?
This client came to us as many do: he knew a client of ours and was introduced that way. Many of our clients come to us through invitations from colleagues and friends -- if not through the infamous BlogTO post -- as we are a family house and prefer to take on more intimate projects rather than mass-production. We enjoy being one of Toronto’s best kept secrets.
M.M is one of our many student patrons seeking to get a head start on building a professional wardrobe. Having come to Canada from Iran to study medicine, he is ready to wear bespoke befitting of a doctor.
T.L is long standing patron who has commissioned an overcoat for the chilling weather ahead. For his latest Trend piece we are utlizing a 25oz 3/8 inch herringbone cloth from Huddersfield.
A.S likes three things: adventure, dogs, and unique vests.
The last time A.S visited our atelier he picked up a rusty orange silk-and-wool vest to add some colour to his wardrobe. This time, we’ve done a more subdued piece crafted in black silk with warm brown leather accents.
This week’s suit is for a gentleman in the field of law. It is one of two bespoke suits we have made for him from a fabric which is solid in colour and rich in texture.
Recently we got the chance to work with a beautiful young lady for a couture wedding gown. This project spanned several months and involved the full breadth of knowledge and expertise from every member of the Trend family.
Couture means “sewing” in French and is the highest form of dressmaking. There are many places that claim to be couture or have couture in their names, but very few live up to the standards of that designation. It can take 200+ hours to complete a couture garment with some taking as many as 400 hours with multiple hands working on the garment.
An exercise in simplicity, this Holland & Sherry Cape Horn Classics charcoal grey two-button three-piece suit pays great attention to small individual details that make a big impression.
Our construction of the Cherry Blossom Wedding Dress continues as we near completion. As mentioned before, this couture gown is crafted out of the finest materials which showcase the bride's personality and philosophies in life.
This dark emerald green tweed overcoat is a great choice for the seasonal transitions. Made with 100% handwoven Breanish tweed from Scotland, this overcoat has peak lapels, turned back split cuffs, a single rear vent and a half raglan shoulder that gives a more rounded shape in the back.
Before the new year, we showcased the process work of the Breanish Tweed sport jacket. We now present to you the the final production.
This week, we have a treat from Holland & Sherry’s Impact collection. We used the exquisite fabric to create a bespoke sport jacket that is sure to turn heads. The plum and grey tones stand out individually as colours of sophistication and splendour. This fabric is part of a wider collection of grey checks with plum. Holland & Sherry describe the fabric stating that “grey is timeless, practical and suggests a balanced mind. People who wear grey are cool, composed and are mediators in all things.”
As seen on Hannibal season two, this bespoke suit was made for Mads Mikkelsen's character Dr. Lecter. Before the season's premiere, producer Bryan Fuller had presented a number of fabric options on Twitter as a behind-the-scenes post. Among them, this bold check.
Hannibal fans beware: within this post lurks a few spoilers.
The image of a young woman in a red riding jacket often brings one thing to mind, a ittle girl being tricked by a wolf disguised as their grandmother. The Red Riding Hood story dates back to the 14th century. In the original tale, the wolf serves up the grandmother’s flesh and blood to the little girl, who unwittingly eats it before climbing naked into bed with the wolf.
While many would associate Hannibal Lecter with his unusual palette and proclivity towards human suffering, he is also a character of refined taste. The producer of NBC’s Hannibal, Bryan Fuller, has a vision of the character that emphasizes the art of his work, rather than the gruesome. He is a master of the macabre, regal, immaculately dressed and a patron of the arts. He is a composer, a fan of the opera and a master chef. Precision is key in all of it; Hannibal arranges flowers in the chest cavity of a corpse the same way he carefully arranges wagyu beef cubes on fine China plates and the same way he tailors his wardrobe to perfection.
From the moment he walked in, we knew this patron would be a little different from the typical groom-to-be. D. is a laid-back man with an immediate sense of what he wants out of bespoke: black paisley. We knew we could immediately turn to Scabal’s 'Festival' line for a wool-silk blend that would give just the right amount of pop without being too overwhelming. A bespoke coat in black paisley with solid black trousers outfitted with a braid on the trouser jettings for a bit of visual interest. A matching black bow-tie and crisp white shirt with subtle grey contrasts top off the look. Sleek and suitably black-tie with plenty of character, as expected from true bespoke.
When J.Y came in to pick up his new sport jacket, we hadn’t yet put the buttons on or cut the buttonholes we’d sewn in. Under bespoke-trained hands, buttons take only a moment to sew in while cutting buttonholes takes mere seconds. Once the buttonholes are cut, they cannot be moved or redone, so when a client picks up their jacket, we can ensure that any last minute adjustments can still be made before cutting.
This week’s piece belongs to the wife of a longtime patron. Her husband has been commissioning pieces from us for many years but when his wife had an upcoming event, she decided to commission a piece of her very own: a purple sport coat.
Our Byzantium brocade dinner jacket with metallic dark grey silk edging and turn back cuffs is moody piece of evening wear. The fabric used to make this jacket is from the Holland & Sherry's Black Tie Elite collection. The brocade is beautifully executed with silver threads in the warp with darker variegated tones of silver and black non-structural weft threads holding the warp threads together to create the appearance of a raised embroidered fabric that is luxurious in nature.
As bridal season is comes to a close, we've been blessed with a very special patron to create for. M commissioned her husband's suit for their impending nuptials while also setting about creating a dress with meaningful qualities for their special and very intimate occasion.
We were asked to make a jacket, part of a 3 piece ensemble, to celebrate the Hindu Festival of Lights, Diwali.
This noble officer was introduced to us through another gentleman who has been a patron of ours since the age of 13. Both men have grown into respectable adults have long since done away with the need for bespoke childrenswear and jersey.
Weddings are a monumental moment in a person's life whether they be a small and intimate backyard function or an over-the-top affair. No matter the kind of occasion, we are always incredibly proud and more than delighted to play a part in the special milestone.
One of our loyal customers is on the trail of the perfect Ulster coat to complete his collection.
The Case of the Fifth Coat.
Seeking a modern take on the classic design, the clues were everywhere and led to a coat made of a robust 25 oz, 3/4 in Grey Herringbone wool, by Dugdale Bros & Co. of Huddersfield, Yorkshire, makers of fine cloth since 1896.
This coat, made of a heavy wool from Drapers of Italy fits the bill down to the smallest detail.
Swelled machined stitched edges for durability grace the pockets, which are lined in Vitale Barberis Flannel for additional warmth.
The collar is made sturdy, so you can pop in up on those windy days.
Inside, green Kasha lining as a reminder:
Winter is Here, but Spring is Coming.
In the years 2012 and 2013, a trend of holographic apparel and accessories seemed to make waves among teeny boppers and young trend setters. Though the multicoloured chrome palette didn't pick up among men's clothing, it did transform into the iridescent trend we see among all forms of fashion today.
We met this fine example of a classic gentleman through a longtime acquaintance and theologian, with whom in the past, Trend has made Francescan and Benedictan cassocks and liturgical vestments for. This young man is a solid representative of a new breed of gentleman who are versed in dressing and Classic Man culture. For his first Trend piece, this young man chose a 12Oz Prince of Wales check with a light powder blue window pane over checking.
E.H drops in one day as a walk-in. He is a young professional and looking to indulge in bespoke for the very first time for his upcoming wedding. After a tour of the house, and some conversation about suit making, he inquires about Ermenegildo Zegna fabrics. Having discovered we can do this for him, the word E.H uses is “delighted.” It’s our word, too. Zegna being a specialty luxury fabric, it is a unique project for us, as well.
Our patron this week is a special young man whose friends and family came together to create a homey, down-to-earth wedding for him and his bride.
T.K is another one of our tremendously artistic patrons. This young man is a tap dancer extraordinaire with a taste in fashion just as vivid and colourful as his dance moves. He embodies the sensibilities of Trend Custom Tailors by his appreciation of colour and his love of artists including the ones here that make his clothes.
Today's feature is a very special piece. On the outside, onlookers are presented with a beautifully structured tweed jacket and vest that fits the wearer well while displaying a polished appeal. What viewers wont know is that this custom piece comes with a bit of touching history that the wearer will carry with him everywhere he takes this stunning duo.
Mr. M.L is a special patron. The head tailor has known him since they were university roommates. Though graduation took them to different places in their lives, their paths have crossed once again.
J.V is always a pleasure to dress. Never once has he been anything but warm and relaxed in our house and we’ve deeply enjoyed crafting his bespoke garments over the months.
A.F is our kind of patron right from the jump. Not only did he have a vision for his wedding suit before he approached our atelier but he planned for more bespoke pieces as well.
Not all vests are created equal, but one thing is certain, all vests are capable of making a statement. A bespoke vest with flare can showcase the wearer’s personality, interests, his ability to dress well and turn a regular two-piece into a more formal outfit.
After many hours of hard work and delicate crafting, our patron is finally ready to pick up her couture masterpiece. Giddy as we've ever seen her, she smiles wide and sways on the spot so that her dress twirls with her step. She can't take her eyes off of her reflection in the mirror.
In the summer, it is sometimes hard to look put together and stay cool. Anyone with experience walking around downtown midday wearing a suit during smog alerts can testify to this fact. However, this lovely lady’s bespoke suit is the perfect antidote to the stuffy suit. Her summer suit is made with an A-line skirt and jacket in cobalt blue. Cobalt is a colour which is very in vogue this season in addition to being our patron's favourite colour. The cobalt blue Kid Mohair is one of USW’s most popular textiles, to the point where the mill has actually sold out of all their cobalt blues for the season.
Every time this patron walks in the door, we’re delighted by his collection of interesting shirts –– some Trend-made, some sourced elsewhere. Some feature parades of African savannah animals, others showcase bright checks and stripes in bold colours while all have a distinctly custom feeling to them. Most major retailers fear prints like these and when they do run unique pieces, they only run small quantities. This makes it difficult for the more creative consumer to go any direction but custom.
Our construction of the Cherry Blossom Wedding Dress continues as we near completion. As mentioned before, this couture gown is crafted out of the finest materials which showcase the bride's personality and philosophies in life.
Seersucker as is a thin, all-cotton fabric, that we use to make clothing for the spring and/or summer season. the fabric originates from British India but was brought to the United States in 1870 by renowned clothier Brooks Brother.
Bespoke is about unique and individually created pieces which are created with the wearer in mind. This particular innovation was developed because the traditional white bow tie was a little too traditional for this maverick. This patron is an exceptionally creative visionary in the field of music with little to no concern about the traditional way of dressing.
A beautiful variation of our house’s modern classic hunting jacket carries subtle detail in leather piping work mirroring the colours of the windowpane checking in this tweed. The work is further elevated by hand brogueing and double 1\4″ welted stitching to boarder the brogue work.
Created for a patron who wished to carry his ensemble into an after-work scenario, this midnight blue houndstooth stroller has been credited as “something special” by its commissioner, who also mentioned that he “might even wear it on a casual Friday.”
Keeping form and function in mind, this blue and white diagonal stripe double-breasted flared skirt overcoat was designed with a number of special features.
It looks as if another one of our devote clients has desired a seersucker suit. As mentioned before, the seersucker suit is a stylish ensemble made of seersucker fabric. The fabric is an all-cotton material which is thin, puckered and usually striped or checkered. Seersucker fabric is normally reserved for the warmer months as it is a fabric that allows wearers to breathe and move freely throughout the Spring/Summer season.
"From back to front” the wife says makes me look like Ryan Reynolds in the GQ shot,” as the picture arrives via e-mail.
The rebuilding of a wardrobe is extremely important and it comes with as much demand as thought. This particular endeavour is undertaken by a wonderful physician.
The holiday season is upon us and this year we were gifted with a very special project for a very important patron.
One of the keys to creating a successful separate look is the ability to harmoniously blend fabrics of different colours, textures and backgrounds to create unique and individual statements about oneself.
A long time patron, in the midst of a move to a warmer climate, has commissioned a lovely emerald green mesh wool and silk blend sport blazer for his new exploits and business abroad. The jacket is perfect for those hot days where there is very little comfort other than the wonderful memories left behind of the white winter months spent here in Canada.
This is a beautiful, intricate mohair and silk blend weave from Scabal, executed in a three piece featuring a double breasted vest with peaked lower fronts. The jacket, half-lined, gives this creation an additional feature of summer lightness which is quite crucial in terms of spring/summer suiting.
Trend Custom Tailors continues to lay strong foundations in sharing a bespoke experience with the professional woman and asserting our comfort in dressing both genders equally and beautifully.
Weddings are a monumental moment in a person's life whether they be a small and intimate backyard function or an over-the-top affair. No matter the kind of occasion, we are always incredibly proud and more than delighted to play a part in the special milestone.
The final installment of our Cherry Blossom Wedding Dress series showcases the final pictures of a wonderful and intimate day shared with friends and family. The bride and groom where beautifully dressed as their souls joined and lifetimes melded together. A feathered headpiece creates a beautiful vale; to protect and create a desire to unlock hindered gazes from a groom to a bride.
Stephan Moccio is, in a word, busy. Upon arriving to our atelier he lit up the room with chatter about the whirlwind of his life: giving up the house he and his wife had spent forever finding, moving to and trying to find housing in L.A, jetting back and forth from city to city. He seems almost perpetually surprised about where he’s gone in his life, even if it is very much a reality. He kept checking his iPhone for updates and in addition to the armload of Trend-made trousers that needed to be taken in after years of wear, he was also in need of a suit for the upcoming SOCAN awards.
