Chinese kwa or not? I was so determined NOT to wear it at first. I used to believe firmly that traditional ones are too old-fashioned and modern ones a bit too cute for my wedding. Was actually thrilled to know that there's no pressure from either family that it's a necessity.
It appeared as a total twist when I came across this piece named "Hydrangea" in magazine and saw it for myself. Hydrangea retains the essence of dragon and phoenix, meticulously handcrafted in a vivid, traditional way with lots of silver and gold threads, yet a modern touch embellished by real Swarovski crystals. A sweet surprise that it's very reasonably priced for rental.

Will share a few more thoughts on kwa and Chinese traditions soon.
