Chandre is a very sentimental type of person but quirky. She likes classic things which are timeless but wanted hints of current fashions. Therefor we created the following mood board for her:

We created a purple, pink and charcoal wedding style theme. Very classic but with hints of vintage decor. We liked the idea of combining different types of flowers within the purple and pink colour scheme. For her decor we suggested having crystal and silver cutlery and crockery. We suggested that the groom should wear a charcoal or black suit with a purple tie to complement the colour scheme. For her bridesmaids she wanted a colour which they could wear again and not be restricted. We suggested satin charcoal dresses. This colour suits any skin tone and is a neutral colour which they could wear again.

To portray the quirkiness within Chandre's wedding style we suggested to her that she should wear a purple shoe. She loved the idea of a shoe with colour because this meant that she could wear it again after the wedding.

We took Chandre for a fitting to Elizabeth's studio in Durbanville. According to her body type we wanted her to wear a strapless dress with detail on the bodice to emphasize her bust. We then liked the idea of adding a purple sash to the dress to reflect her colou scheme and add a brooch to that to reflect the vintage theme of the wedding. We selected an off white dress with a gold undertone to complement her skin tone.
She looked amazing!!

 

 

On the day of the show her hair and make up was done by Lori Mauerburger and Carla Abrahams.

This is what Chandre thought of the Moi Styling team and the whole experience:

"Where to begin...I would like to thank you for taking all the expert styling knowledge you have, and making sure that I looked amazing in my unique style.

Thanks for inventing the Moi Styling MOOD BOARD, that really makes the life of service providers and brides much easier when it comes to getting the whole picture of a wedding style and theme.

I must admit you really did something right, because when I stepped onto the stage, my family and friends were all in tears when they saw me, and this is all thanks to your expert advice and knowledge given to me.

You are amazing and I can tell you one thing, your business will just grow to even greater SUCCESS!!!! You are really an inspiration to me

THANK YOU!
