Yefta Gunawan's interest in fashion design started early in his life, during 3rd grade of elementary school. Years later, he took a major step to follow his life's passion by pursuing a fashion design education at ESMOD Jakarta. Later in 2010, Yefta started his fashion career simply by designing wedding dresses for some of his friends.
After pleasing so many clients with the wedding dresses of their dreams, Yefta's work soon became well-known among brides-to-be through word of mouth. Despite his achievements, Yefta still believes that the spotlight should lie on his clients, not his dresses. "I want my client to earn praises not because of the dress she wears, but simply because the audience can see the beauty radiating around the bride on that special day," said Yefta.
He believes that a confident bride will be the prettiest. That's why Yefta always carefully learns about each bride's personality before designing a dress to ensure that his work meets the client's expectations. He also has to have a visual image of the groom in order to create the best version of a wedding dress that will match the couple.
Yefta's classic signature style results in a wedding dress that will impress every guest yet still appear timeless even years after the wedding. Mixing simplicity and elegance, Yefta's design philosophy strengthens him as a designer who always strives to fulfill a dream wedding dress.
