The "Chipi Dress" is a one-of-a-kind wedding dress designed by Chipi-chan from scratch ♡ She had a strong desire to create a wedding that was overflowing with originality, which drove her to realize her long-time dream of designing a wedding dress.
The Key Element of "Chipi Dress" is the Transition from Gal to Grown-Up ♡
When creating the dress, Chipi-chan focused on designing a dress that could be worn at the transition from being a gal to becoming an adult ♡ Given that she is 26 years old, she was careful to strike a balance where the dress isn't too cute or too mature.
Multiple Layers of Tulle are a Delight ♡
The aspect Chipi-chan was most particular about in the design was the overwhelming volume of the dress! She layered the tulle to the maximum extent possible, to the point where it was almost impossible to go further! Upon close inspection, the skirt was incredibly fluffy, and the soft transparency was truly captivating ♡

\Tips from Chipi-chan for Styling Your Dress ♡/
And now, the most important thing for brides-to-be—Chipi Dress’s fabulous 【styling tips】! Having worked as a charismatic model at the forefront of fashion, what are the stylish dress-wearing techniques that Chipi-chan knows?
Chipi Dress Styling Tip ① If You're Going for Cute and Girly ♡
First, for brides who love cute and girly vibes ♡ It's a must to wear a removable bow at the waist! Accessories should be rounded pearls for a cute finish. The heart cut at the neckline is also Chipi-chan's favorite design ♡
Chipi Dress Styling Tip ② If You're Going for a More Elegant Look ♡
If sweet vibes aren’t your style, then the mature bride should remove the waist bow and try a simple outfit instead ♡ Adding sophisticated hair accessories like a tiara, just like Chipi-chan, will surely enhance the elegant impression.
Chipi Dress Styling Tip ③ If You Prefer Casual Chic ♡
And for brides envisioning a homely and casual wedding ♡ Pairing the Chipi Dress with a blue check shirt and Converse is undeniably stylish. This is a great look for the second party!
Coordinating with a pink off-shoulder top is also too cute! Donning a large straw hat lends a refreshing youthful vibe... ♡ This would be a lovely outfit for location photos or pre-wedding shoots!
