Styles, colours and fabric types will change seasonally.
Choose these important factors to suit your body and your complexion.
Having a style, not running with the current fashion will not say you are out of date but that you know what suits you. Be fun and adventurous and experiment a little.
Lace always evokes for me those incomparable designs which the branches and leaves of trees embroider across the sky,and I do not think that any invention of the human spirit could have a more graceful or precise origin.
Coco Chanel, 1939.
Everything feminine evokes illusion, mystery, confusion, and emotion just as lace does. And lace never fails to offer what no artifice can guarantee: beauty in what is most fleeting and therefore more desirable.
"The seduction of lace" - Anne Kraatz. 2006.
Working at the very top end of bridal couture I need much more from my Fabric merchant than the basics of good service, keen prices and quality - I need inspiration. What I love about Saigon Fabrics is that it is a little bit of Paris in Sydney. Every time I go there I am fascinated and inspired by their incredible range and variety. Their range is always fantastic but it is continually highlighted with special inspirational pieces of lace, silk, embroidery and beaded pieces which are cutting edge European design. Combine that with the best prices and the best service and you have the dream combination known as Saigon Fabrics.

After I have met with my client and designed the gown, I start searching for the fabrics; my first destination, is "SAIGON FABRICS". I will always find that unique piece that suits my design! This puts my mind at ease to know that I can trust that they will always have something the suits my style.

Dear Jenny & Susi,
Once again many thanks,
Just wanted to drop you a quick line to let you know how my wedding went. It was simply amazing. I felt like a princess, as every woman should on their wedding day and I owe a great deal of that to the dress I wore. It would not have been the dress it was if it weren't for the incredible fabric. So thank-you so much for all the assistance you gave both my mother and I. The bridesmaids looked equally as good and mum's outfit complemented the bridal party perfectly. Everyone was complementing us the entire day.

Recommending my brides to Jenny and Susi gives me peace of mind for I know that my clients will return to me with the most beautiful of silks and laces that are required to create their dream gown. Jenny and Susi's inspiration and knowledge equips my clients with an understanding that for their dream gown to be created, requires the right fabrics.

Decision making in a store like Saigon Fabrics can sometimes be hard for any bride with the amount of choices available to them from their gorgeous range. Susi and Jenny make that journey easier, fun and inspiring. I highly recommend all my clients there and grateful with the assistance and advice they provide in order to make it an easier process for the client and myself.

Dear Jenny & Susi,
Many thanks again,
I would like that say a very huge thankyou for all the girls help in Saigon fabrics for my bridesmaids dress. Making a special trip down from Newcastle was a worthwhile trip, the colours blended in lovely having the skirt material specially dyed to the same colour as my invitations. I have attached a photo of the girls.

Saigon fabrics is the best place to look if it's originality you are after. Their extensive range of the latest designer laces, beaded and unleaded, trims are a must see, the choices are are endless. I absolutely love taking my clients there and watch their faces light up as we step into this jewel of a fabric store, they simply love the experience!

Jenny & Susi choose unique European laces, fabrics, appliqués etc, that have a classic but edgy style, I've never been disappointed with the quality and choices they have recommended. It can be an overwhelming experience for most brides and to have some sound advice and provide a service with a smile, always helps a little.
Ervan Woo - Bridal Designer / Hair stylist / Make-up artist. 2011.
If you are looking for exquisite fabrics then Saigon Fabrics is the place to visit. Jenny and Susi have a wonderful range of French Laces of which I was able to select a beautiful lace for my daughter's wedding gown.
