Veluz RTW
I get about 30 to as much as 50 new inquiries every day and I try to answer each and everyone personally. Most are non Filipino overseas brides asking me to replicate some wedding gowns I’ve done for past brides. I have a lot of emails too from stockists overseas expressing interest to retail […]
Metro Weddings Magazine
I still remember dreaming of seeing my work published. And to be in the cover, THE COVER!, is way more than what I’ve hoped for. Thank you Metro Weddings for making that dream come true, 3 times over 🙂 Forever grateful, Veluz October 2012 Volume 12 Number 2 May 2011 Volume 11 Number 1 June […]
Krishna
I do have a long list of brides to post and thoughts to share. But I also have fittings to do, gowns to sketch and emails to reply to. Thank God for pictures that don’t really need too much explaining. Browse, enjoy and feel Krishna’s happiness on her day. Happiness she absolutely deserves. One beautiful bride, […]
Charina and the Figueroa ladies
I did Charina’s debutante gown ten years ago. Before that, I did her cousin Joan’s wedding gown in 2000 and Jovy’s and Sarah’s wedding gowns thereafter. Back then I had nothing. Just the desire to make beautiful gowns. I didn’t have a shop then, so with the husband driving for me, I went to their […]
Kathrina
Dear Ms. V, This could be just one of the many messages you will ever receive. I just want to thank you for making our wedding day very memorable 🙂 These trimmings are just a bonus for what weddings and marriages should be in reality. I had no set plans or images of a […]
Maryan
Lace, tulle, embroidered Pina, beadings and ruffles. Too much going on? I don’t think so 🙂 She looks soft, light and romantic. Every bit a bride 🙂 Photos by Oly Ruiz of Metrophoto Hair and Make-up by Madge Landrito and Steve Pagsanjan of The Make-up Studio Coordination by […]
Abby
She said hello with a faint smile when she entered my office. And I thought, uh-oh this is trouble 🙂 Scrap lace, and all those intricate and dainty stuff, she’s definitely not the typical romantic bride. This girl is scene-stealing glitz. I did the sketch and presented the details, just a little chit-chat, not much […]
Sarah
Hi Ms. V! Let me say my BIGGEST THANK YOU for making me beautiful on my life’s most special day. I never felt so girly until I’ve worn a VELUZ gown. Akala ko kasi lalaki ako. hahaha! I felt confidence running through my whole body and I was very, very happy. My […]
Klia
It’s pretty common that brides nowadays have pegs or moodboards of how they envision their wedding. I usually draw inspiration from there and work on something that will work cohesively with her vision. Klia’s wedding is one of those that I somehow inspired 🙂 It thrills me to find out that the pleating we envisioned […]
Jika
Gowns lately are really very opulent – lots of texture, lots of bling. Once in a while I meet someone who wants simple lines, classic embellishments. Simple. Elegant. But never boring 🙂 Of course it helps that she’s getting married in France, where you can’t really compete with the abundance of lace and the finest of […]
