When we think of modern wedding gowns, we usually think of the elegant white piece. However, for brides who are looking to pay homage to their traditional Chinese roots, they may opt for costumes like the cheongsam.
Wearing a cheongsam for your wedding also does not equate to old-fashioned. In today’s society, many bridal studios are redefining cheongsams to create contemporary and trendy pieces. These modern cheongsams still maintain traditional details, be it in the embroidery design or embellishments while allowing you to still look classy and trendy. Here is a list of 30 bridal ateliers who offer wedding cheongsams in Singapore.
