Bridezilla gara gara Kebaya and Penjahit

Oh penjahit..... where should I found you ?

Baru kali ini bener bener memahami why so many women make such a big fuss of finding the right penjahit kebaya.......right for your body, right for your wallet also ...tentunya lah yaw !!!!

I used to laugh at my mom and her kebaya collection lengkap dengan kain kain Jawa which at that time I used to wonder and didn't get it why those things cost so much ???
Even on my sister's authentic traditional Javanese wedding.... against all the wise talk and suggestion from my family including my mom.... I refuse to wear kebaya..... and dress up in straples dress with blue navy jacket.......... well I'm only 12 years old at that time.....
And my brother's was a simple western wedding ......so again....no kebaya for me..:)

And now for my wedding....it's all about kebaya .... I'm going to get married in Modern Karo Style because Abang is from Batak Karo tribe....which on almost every big occasion the women wear kebaya with songket/ sarong.......
So I, in honor and respect for Abang and his family, open my mind to the idea of kebaya and its attire...............

Well, some people say once you open a door be prepared for the flood..... true to say that's exactly what happened to me..... now there is not a day gone by without me thinking about kebaya...... regardles it's for me or my family attire, for the wedding or private collection, where to buy, what color, penjahit sapa ya,cek internet, check weddingku, check di FD...... I've been turned into KEBAYA- HOLIC .... and I can't shake it.....is this symptom of being a bridezilla??

Nggak cuma itu .... setelah menumpuk bahan kebaya, tibalah waktunya menjahit. Dan mencari penjahit beneran kayak cari pacar.... kadang kadang 1st impression mislead you..... Bisa cocok ngobrol belum tentu hasilnya cocok di badan, cocok & sesuai expectation tapi jutek ..... bener bener kayak cari pacar deh ...:)

So beberapa yg aku sudah coba jahit :

• Zohra -- nggak cocok dan kecewa
  
• Fadlan -- hasilnya lumayan bagus, the best bustier so far,payetnya juga jepang dan kinclong, sedikit kurang rapih dan rada mahal yak ! Kemaren coba jahit kebaya bahan semi + bustier....foto menyusul yak !
• Kampung Butik... dpt info dari blog-nya  anak WK Irax  memberanikan diri untuk menjahit kebaya lamaran......Tempatnya deket burger blenger, di Jl. Mendawai...... tempatnya sih nggak sebesar Fadlan, tapi tertata dengan apik dan rapih. Ketemu sama mbak Ari dan orangnya enak diajak diskusi....dia juga yg bantu milih model dan aplikasinya seperti apa....harga sih lumayan tapi kalo liat hasil hasilnya dia sepertinya worth it....hopefully.... anxious to see my kebaya with sabrina neck line and the little turtle neck look a like
  

Yg pengen dicoba :
1. Kebayakoe by Lulu di Bintaro-- di tlp kayaknya Mbak Lulu msh muda dan hip, hopefully creative mendesign kebaya-nya
2. Ina di Bintaro
Kok bintaro terus ??? Kan nanti setelah married khan tinggal ku di Tangerang dan sekitarnya, jadi biar deket .....kalo nanti pengen jahit lagi......teteup...oh aku bener bener bridezilla yg gila kebaya .....

3. Merras -- kalo dapet rejeki nomplok kale ya. Udah pernah survey, emang bagus banget, rapih banget dan muahal .... diatas 2 jutaan gitu untuk jahit biasa+ bustie+payet tabur di dada dan ujung tangan (bahan dari kita ).... tante ku yg langganan disini bilang recommended, cuttingnya enak dan pas di badan jadi jatuhnya kebaya jadi wokeh....konon banyak ibu ibu pejabat yg jahit disini......tapi aku kan bukan ibu ibu pejabat, nggak bisa ya dibikin harganya rada bersahabat ??? :(
Yah ada barang ya ada harganya dong ya .....wah cari rejeki nomplok dmana ya ???

4. Riny Suwardi -- bener bener jatuh cinta sama karyanya waktu ada fashion show dia di Birawa... mbak Riny-nya enak diajak ngobrol.... cuman ya itu mahal, jahit doang sekitar 1 jutaan belum yg lain lain lho..... berdoa ada ....yah sapa tahu ada berkatnya....pengen banget punya at least 1 aja karya dia.....

5. Myrna Myurna --- tapi udah full book sampe Desember...hiks, padahal suka sama karya karya dia

Kok udah jahit, masih pengen bikin lagi ???
rencananya sih pengen buat kebaya back up buat lamaran, just in case hasil yg opsi 1 terlalu sexy & terbuka .... menghormati agar para inang inang dan pakdhe budhe tidak pada jantungan :p ....sekalian nambah koleksi, khan nanti wajib datang acara Karo pake kebaya .....he..he.. another alasan for the kebaya holic :p

Plus sekalian hunting penjahit yg cocok (cocok di hati, cocok di kantong, deket rumah biar gak pusing waktu fitting) buat mbakyu-mbakyu ku ....secara ada 3 kebaya yg musti dijahit (buat lamaran adat,gereja, resepsi).........investasi buat aku nanti setelah menjadi wanita Karo...jadi punya penjahit kebaya langganan is a must .....he he .....
