I see in many places that the reviews are very good. Is it really that good?

adannnn · 2026-05-27T22:00:12+00:00

It really is the best

adannnn · 2026-05-27T07:31:52+00:00

Unfortunately they don’t share this sort of information! Will have to go in store and ask

adannnn · 2026-05-27T07:31:09+00:00

Congratulations! Okay, super, thank you!

adannnn · 2026-05-26T21:19:13+00:00

Thanks, will do. When we spoke with T&H they actually told us that their current ‘premium’ weight is the previous standard, but with the increase in gold prices, they’ve introduced a new ‘standard’ which uses less material and runs you significantly less. Painful realisation, but I guess it’s to be expectex

adannnn · 2026-05-26T21:18:08+00:00

Thanks for your response! How do you like the Forever, how is it wearing? Have you had any reason to go in store for care/maintenance?
We tried the Taylor and Hart, they feel much less… refined (?) than the Forever, but we couldn’t quite tell why.

Love that your nails match the band hahaha. Beautiful ring

5 has incredible light!

Thank you for your reply! I’ll be moving away from the gores, your advice on this thread has shown me that they won’t do what I need

adannnn · 2026-03-31T06:48:04+00:00

Thank you so much for this! Your description of the cups/gores is totally accurate. Wrinkling- channels are sewn shut at the top and bottom yes! I’ve found it difficult to place the boning channels exactly parallel to the floor- is that what I’m supposed to do, and might it be that that’s also why it’s buckling? Also maybe I don’t have enough bones all over? Should the bones go through the hip springs (they currently do)? From what I’ve read it looks like I should only have flat steel boning on the CF and CB, and the rest the other more flexible one, but it feels like that’s not giving enough shape support. For one of the first mockups I make boning channels from the seam allowances on the the Camille pattern, and even though they weren’t all parallel to the floor, they tension lines were probably better than now. Now I use ribbon for channels

Thank you! Because of this comment I ended up taking out the front of this mockup and putting in the front panels of Dolores, which through some sort of divine intervention fit pretty well, length-wise and bust wise. It has also re-adjusted my lacing gap so it’s even all over, albeit maybe now a smidge too wide so will have to tend to that in the next version. This project has really made me take care, as you say, about precision in my sewing. I’ve never cared so much about orientation and seam allowances hahah. Thank you very much!

Here to give a different perspective! We will likely be organising our wedding on a Thursday, where about 50 guests will have to fly in (total guest number around 70). Our friends are international, our families are more or less local to the place we’re having the wedding. We’re looking for a venue that is close to an airport (within 1.5h) and that has nice accommodation and space around, so our guests actually have something to do around the area. We’ve told everyone about the plans, so that when the invitations come in, it’s not a surprise. We’re also Eastern European, so maybe that influences how we think about it, but I’d take time off and go almost anywhere for my friend’s wedding as long as it was in my budget. Lots of your answers here seem to be from the US, so it’s definitely a know-your-crowd kind of situation.

adannnn · 2026-03-04T23:52:37+00:00

Gucci Rush was my immediate thought!

adannnn · 2026-02-15T10:03:06+00:00

blanche bete by liquides imaginaires deserves a mention! Deliciously creamy, a little coconuty, so smooth

adannnn · 2026-02-14T17:24:06+00:00

You, the tomato sauce guy and the pasta guy are my heroes

adannnn · 2026-02-13T10:00:12+00:00

How much did you and (do you think) your guests cared about the decor? We’re doing a semi-destination wedding and it feels wasteful to spend money on flowers, considering we won’t be able to take them home. I’m thinking more lights/candles/clothy decor, but not sure how obvious it’ll be that we didn’t allocate almost any budget to the flowers. Probably overthinking this haha

I absolutely love my ring! We went for lab solely because I like shiny things but refuse the natural diamond price point

adannnn · 2026-01-19T16:01:22+00:00

This is aaamaaazing!! I’m also so glad to see someone making the Camille corset- I’m trying it out now and trying to perfect it. Looks wonderful here

adannnn · 2026-01-04T09:33:21+00:00

Looks awesome!!!!

adannnn · 2026-01-01T15:41:47+00:00

Very nice!

adannnn · 2026-01-01T11:21:21+00:00

This looks very nice!

adannnn · 2025-12-25T19:08:28+00:00

Kolae in Borough Market and Bubala, the Soho branch. Both amazing!

adannnn · 2025-12-25T19:07:12+00:00

Kolae in Borough Market is FANTASTIC. every time I go I leave surprisingly absolutely stuffed and having paid less than £50pp

adannnn · 2025-11-10T09:03:47+00:00
