Gideon and Ammie: Real wedding

It is always interesting to me when I meet clients for the first time how they act around me. Some are shy and others will say if they like something or maybe just let their fiancé do all the talking. Now Gideon and Ammie are one of my clients that I will never forget.

Before I met with them I knew that I will have my hands full meeting with 4 men and styling them at the same time. But nothing could prepare me for this one! Laughing and joking and speaking their mind- it was nothing like I've ever experienced with clients before. What they didn't know is that I found them very entertaining! They are such warm and friendly people I immediately felt like a friend and one of them.

After a successful fitting I was asked to style Ammie's dad as well for the occasion. It was amazing to have met everyone and driving out on the wedding day to Paternoster to make sure the men are dressed and styled correctly was a highlight! Almost had a heart attack when I got there- the men were dressed in their pants and white shirts wanting to eat juicy burgers for lunch! Nevertheless....they looked amazing and very stylish in the end!

Gideon is wearing a navy self striped Viyella suit, white Carducci shirt, navy and white striped silk tie with a white pocket handkerchief. He is also wearing a black leather belt and black polo shoes. I made him a boutonniere with navy ribbon and silver detail.

The groomsmen are all wearing charcoal Monatic suits, white Carducci shirts, navy paisley ties and white pocket handkerchiefs. I made them matching boutonnieres with navy and charcoal ribbon and silver detail.

Ammie's dad is wearing a charcoal Viyella suit, white Viyella shirt and charcoal striped silk tie with matching pocket handkerchief and boutonniere.

Here is what they had to say about Moi Styling:

"This was the perfect "shopping spree" for the guy's. If your husband is anything like mine - in other words, he HATES shopping, this is the perfect place to be. Rozanne makes something that can be quite daunting - a very nice experience. She goes the extra mile, has got very good taste and she is a very nice person to have around. Thank you Rozanne - we will recommend you to everyone! It was a blessing (from the brides perspective) having you!"

Nadim

About a month ago I styled Nadim for his wedding. He looked funky and very stylish in his 3 piece Carducci C2 Suit, Light grey Carducci shirt with polka dots and bow tie. Here is what Nadim had to say about his Moi Styling Experience:

"Rozanne can fit you perfectly into an off the shelf suit, first time around, with only ones personal sizes to go on. Never has shopping for a fine jacket, pants and pair of shoes been this pleasant. The fitting was straight forward, fuss free and the goods available at a tremendous value. It is difficult to imagine having to wade through countless shops and ill-fitting clothes at a shopping mall, knowing that Moi Styling has all my elegant men's wear needs covered: The closest thing to a tailor-made experience, without the wait and without all the fuss. I will recommend her to my friends and colleagues in a heartbeat."

Thanks Nadim, can not wait to see the rest of your photos!

Hendri & Imke: Real wedding

While I was planning a shopping day in Robertson in April I received a phone call from Imke and we immediately shared an excitement for her fiance aka Hendri's winter wedding style. She liked the idea of playing around with different textures and this was a style right up my alley because as soon as I wrap my fingers around different textures and colours the creative juices flow.

Hendri and Imke exchanged their vows in June as the Afrikaners would say: "In die hartjie van die winter." I had to style Hendri (groom) and his 4 best men. Hendri and his groomsmen are wearing black C2 Carducci suits. Hendri is wearing a textured grey waistcoat with a charcoal and silver paisley silk tie. The groomsmen are wearing black waistcoats with plain charcoal silk ties.

Here is what Imke had to say about Moi styling:

"Moi Styling is simply fantastic! We got married just a little bit more than a month ago, in the heart of winter, and they sorted out my husband and the best men’s outfits. Effortless! A must for any groom."
