The design of the Bride Raiden is drawn to paired with the Bride Kiana and I would like the fabrics used to echo with each other. I was inspired by the image of Mei in Herrscher of Thunder and took a few details from there.
Biflex, satin, jacquard, leatherette are my favorites for fabrics. A mix of different textures is perfect.
For translucent details (sleeve, skirt, veil) - mesh, chiffon, lace. With sequins or rhinestones.
