I was honored to work on the styling for Sucré's first music video for the song "When We Were Young". It's one of my very favorite songs from the upcoming album! I designed this dress for Stacy to wear in the video. It was made with love in the Red Velvet studio by one of our wonderful seamstresses. In the process we used several vintage wedding dresses and vintage lace to build this special dress. I still have goosebumps thinking of how incredible she looked wearing it! The video was filmed on the 3rd floor above Red Velvet (yes, same place I walked down the aisle) and directed by Darren King. Enjoy...
I'm so happy for Stacy, Darren and Jeremy! Today they were featured on the front page of Nylon.
It's been so much fun to cheer them on throughout this entire process! The album will be out in April, but you can buy this song on iTunes already. Thanks for letting me share something so close to my heart! I hope you love the video as much as I do. xoxo. elsie
Oh my - this dress is BEAUTIFUL! I love the lace and the layers and the pop of black against the white. Seriously gorgeous!

That dress is absolutely stunning. At my wedding I wore a vintage Gunne Sax dress from the late 1970s (originally worn by my mother at her wedding), and I thought that was one of the most beautiful/original dresses I had ever seen...I stand corrected!!
Kind of random question- I know that Sucre teamed up with Invisible Children and did an acoustic version of "When We Were Young". I was wondering if you were thinking about posting an entry about Kony2012? I know it's not your usual topic but I think it'd be pretty cool if you did mention it, especially knowing how much traffic your blog gets (because it's awesome- I pretty much keep it open in a tab on my computer every day). Just wondering!
That's so awesome! And the dress... oh my goodness. If this had existed 2 years ago I would have begged you to make another for me and gotten married in it. That's one of the most beautiful things I've seen in a long time. I'm in love.
