Heirloom gathers the gowns that look as though they have a history — high necklines, covered buttons running the length of a spine, scalloped lace cuffs, the small old-fashioned finishes that machines skip and hands do not. We cut them in ivory and soft champagne rather than stark white, because that warmer tone is what reads "timeless" in a photograph twenty years on.
This is also where our tea-ceremony pieces live. We hand-make and rent modern qipao and kua in red and gold for the morning customs — cut to actually flatter, not the boxy borrowed ones — so a bride can honour the tradition and still feel like the most considered version of herself. Many Singapore couples pair an Heirloom qipao for the tea ceremony with a white gown for the dinner, and we fit both in one place.
Best for: Tea ceremonies, intimate weddings, and brides who love nostalgia, high necks and hand-detail.
Rosalind
A high Victorian neckline and long guipure-lace sleeves over a soft A-line. Forty-two covered buttons run down the back — entirely impractical, entirely the point.
Theresa
A tea-length swing dress in embroidered organza for a registry or garden do. Sweet, a little 1950s, and endlessly photogenic against greenery.
Lotus
A modern red-and-gold qipao for the tea ceremony, cut close through the waist with a hand-knotted pankou front. Tradition, tailored — not borrowed and boxy.
Rosalind and Lotus are the two halves of a very Singaporean wedding day. Rosalind is the high-neck, covered-button ceremony gown — quiet and nostalgic. Lotus is the morning’s qipao, red and close-cut for the tea customs. Brides booking both at one appointment is exactly how we like to work, and it saves running between two studios.
