Website Design and Build

December 2005

From Shelley's site: Shelley Chhabra is the latest addition to the vast and vibrant Indian Bridal Fashion industry. Her collections feature classic and modern Indian wedding dresses and sophisticated gowns that are perfect for the bride who wants an ethnic look and combine multiple traditions.

Shelley started in an IT career and left in order to start her real passion, Indian Clothing design. I knew Shelley from school, and began to help her get started with an online presence. We started with her actual logo (listed as a separate project in the porfolio), and then moved onto the actual web site.

Her site needed a simple and elegant design in order to draw your attention to the real focus, the models and her 'runway'. Shelley had little web experience, so it was setup to drop an image folder in, add a few fields to a database, and a new outfit would appear on the site. I have also been the photographer at a couple of her fashion shows.
