Transform your wedding dress into 3 garments
Your wedding dress is a precious keepsake you don't want to part with. But it's taking up space and you know it will be difficult to wear again. You could, of course, keep it in the hope of passing it on one day, but there's another option: give it a second life and make it part of your everyday wardrobe. That's exactly what Juliette thought. Her dress, a sumptuous lace creation with a bare back and train, was a real gem, but far too imposing to be carried over. And yet, she treasured her fabric and dreamed of wearing it again, in another form. So she called on TILLI artisans to transform her dress into elegant, easy-to-wear pieces. Discover how her wedding dress was transformed into three unique garments, combining creativity, craftsmanship and responsible commitment.Posted 20 days ago
