The theme of the event was The Crown Jewels. Below in his own words, Anthony Rubio describes the detail work that went into this breathtaking creation.  

From Anthony Rubio:

First I created the understructure which is an architectural design to which I attached salmon colored silk taffeta. When done I held the bodice which featured a peplum. I then started attaching different segments of a sequined fabric depicting tropical foliage. I created several versions of flowers in an egg shell white silk and chiffon which in turn was held together by a set crystal. I strategically attached these to the bodice. Cap sleeves were created and attached then adorned with the same combination of flowers.

The next part of the design was voluminous skirt again started with the creation of the under garment. I rusched then attached three yards of the salmon taffeta. At each point I attached an Austrian crystal. The next layer was an egg shell colored Chantilly Lace. The final step was attaching the clusters of jeweled flowers as done on the bodice. Within each cluster I attached individual heart shaped glass prism hearts. I was to attach the skirt but at the very last minute decided to make the garment convertible with detachable skirt.

My goal is always comfort and safety then fashion so this creation was to be absolutely functional. Ultimately with two fittings, the garment was finished in 10 days. The final touch was the magnificent jewels in the form of a belt of over 300 crystals which intertwined as they wrapped around the waste. A necklace of Austrian crystals fit for a princess was chosen and I crafted a special crown trimmed in white faux mink, wrapped in salmon silk taffeta and then encrusted in hand sewn stones. The ultimate touches were a trim of pearls and glass stones. For the blessing she so deserves a cross of crystals as placed prominently on top.
