Amazing, elegant and chic wedding dresses

by ckalita

After searching through countless dress shops with the same old poof & chiffon- I found Vwidon and fell in love! They had so many gorgeous dresses that it was hard to decide. They custom fit the dress to your body instead of ordering a standard size and refitting it like most other shops. My dress ended up fitting like a glove. I was very impressed with the service I received throughout the process and would highly recommend this bridal boutique to anyone looking for a modern take on the traditional wedding dress.

• Pros: Gorgeous Wedding Dresses, Incredible Fabrics, Sophisticated Atmosphere

Vwidon

by joliegal

Vwidon is an incredible experience. Carla Hwang who is one of the designers and owners of the salon is extremely creative and talented. You are able to look through their beautiful gowns and select the ones you would like to try on. In no way did I feel rushed through this process. After having visited many bridal department stores and boutiques throughout Chicago I ended up purchasing my dress from Vwidon. Customer service is personalized, the shop is beautifully organized and it has a modern and clean feel to it. I highly recommend purchasing from Vwidon if you are attracted to superbly executed couture gowns using wonderful fabrics and designs without the steep prices.

• Pros: Amazing selection, exquisite gowns, great customer service

Dresses for the modern, creative bride.

by Contributor

The Scene
Graduates of the Art Institute Design School, Carla Hwang and Kenneth Park own this distinctive bridal shop where contemporary fashions preserve a soft, feminine sincerity. Two major collections are presented each year, generating about 30-40 different designs, which can be altered with your specifications--longer train, different neckline, etc. Each dress is custom-made to fit your body, based on two muslin fittings and two fabric fittings.

The Goods
Luxe fabrics imported from Italy--like peau-de-soie satin, organza, silk jacquard, crepe and silk taffeta--are used for simple, minimalist dresses. You won't find any lacy numbers or beaded corsets. Instead you'll find features like front pockets, a diagonal hemline and feather patches.
