Mom and I trooped to Cecil’s shop this last Monday, not only for my fitting, but also for her gown (which has a spectacularly beaded top). Mom’s a bit concerned with the tube going a bit too low on the cleavage hehe, but really, I don’t see anything wrong with it. Anyway…
While I’m not really nervous with what Cecil has in store for me (I gave him with totally free rein on the trim), thankfully my gut was in the right place since I got a nod from my mom after my fit =)
Being one of the ‘rare’ hands-on grooms (to quote Cynthia on her email), I think after all the hard work this year, I deserve at least something that would make me feel like a million bucks before I meet my bride on our day. And THAT might be perhaps the black suit Cecil especially made for me. It’s smooth, elegant, and uncluttered. Just the way I like it
Sorry I’m not going to indulge you YET on a photo, but here’s the gist: it’s basically a 3 button, single-breasted, ventless italian-inspired suit. And it fits me like a glove.
So what I have here is just the tip of the iceberg:
My black-buttoned shirt and flat front pants are already perfect by itself.
Hopefully, my vest and tie would come off as nicely.
Also, hun and I dropped by recently at Galleria to check on our rings and window shop for prenups stuff. We actually ended up finding and eventually getting the comfy leather shoes I’ve been dreaming of – shoes that I wouldn’t think of taking off on my wedding day. It’s that comfy (think sneaker-comfortable), but thankfully doesn’t burn a hole in my pocket. Portugese-made, oxford leather pointies, a little crumpled (tho not seen much in the pic) to give off some of my edginess.
Cecil thinks it goes extremely well with the suit. Icing on the cake.
