[poohbeary]

Hi Rojak, do you mean sharing with us the cost of your mom's dress? rough range at least? thanks

I brought my mom to chinatown above the hawker centre and got a nice evening gown for $300++. My mom is on the chubby side and petite. The shop owner and me convince her to get the gown instead of a usual covered-up cheongsam and she has nice neckline and the gown is of a deep v-cut.

juz to check... the average price of tailoring a dress for mom is $300? Any cheaper alternatives?? Say $150-200...

apologies for the mis-comm. For my mom, I bought the dress instead of tailoring @ SGD300++. My MIL tailor-made a fish tail gown in Johor for RM350++ but the effect came out to be a little disappointing for her.

tailoring in Singapore (according to last check in 2011) was ard 400 - 600 depending on the popularity of the tailor and the materials you choose.

Do bridal shops also provide the gown for the mothers?

any idea if the mum want "pants" style instead of gown... >_<

[purplekisses]

hmm. might as well ask your mum to be sure. i guess dresses are still better than pants though

[0630han]

oops. i think i didnt phrase my question properly.. was trying to ask any idea where to shop for mum who want pants instead of gown.
in any case, just to share, went shopping at the OG Bugis level 2. found the clothes that she like (i think the brand is call Nina)
