Brides Magazine features Dominique Calvillo
“I had a vision for a crochet dress dripping in pearls,” Sacha says. She did a quick search for LA-based knitters and discovered Dominique Calvillo of Namaste & Crochet. “Dominique’s page was the first I clicked on. It felt like the universe dropped the right person right into my lap. She was so positive, easygoing and wonderful.” Sacha continues: “We worked together to come up with a design by combining elements of samples she had already made—the back of that dress with the front of this top, this skirt, but add a slit, train, ruffle—until we came up with a totally new design. After our initial design meeting, we had one fitting, a few adjustments—more pearls!—and the dress was ready.”
