Time to try on some new @oumaatelier eveningwear pieces in the studio. The Mya dress is made with nearly hundred hand dyed multi color organza ruffles. When I say my inspiration always include water waves and jelly fish, you know what I mean! 🌊🪼

Life as a designer lately — somewhere between work, wonder, and everything in between.

It’s a season of making, refining, beginning again, and remembering why I started.

Here’s a little glimpse of life lately, through my eyes. 🤍

Sketching new ideas for the upcoming October market — turning the things I can only see in my head into something real.

Draping, pinning, undoing, and starting again until the fabric finds its own shape.

Dreaming up custom details and possibilities for brides who want something that feels entirely their own.

Celebrating ten years of love, partnership, and everything we’ve built together — by the ocean, where time somehow feels a little slower. 🌊 by @ouma_designer

Ten years together, held in one very special ring.

We started with Ou’s original diamond, sourced a one-of-a-kind teal blue sapphire that felt completely her, and designed a softly sculpted wave to reflect her style now.

A deeply personal piece to celebrate a decade together - and this next chapter. Thank you @ouma_designer and Jon for trusting us with something so meaningful. by @ouma_designer

Ok need your help! Jon and I are celebrating our 10 year anniversary this coming month. We are doing a small intimate photoshoot/celebration on Galiano island. Which dress should I wear?? I don't want to feel like a newly wed, nothing too fancy, but something represents me. by @ouma_designer

Life is all about visiting old homes but creating new memories.

Finally got his favorite frozen yogurt.

Stunned by this beauty at @metmuseum exhibition.

His way to observe art.

35°C Central Park swing...

Favorite piece from the @irisvanherpen @brooklynmuseum exhibition.

Foggy Empire State Building day. A rare view that most people have never seen.

The ferry to Liberty Island is HOT...

And a giant lemonade is needed..

I took a photo 29 years ago at the same spot with the twin tower in the background.

Super hot day but he loves the Brooklyn Bridge.

Guess my husband can be a good IG photographer?

Ready to glow beyond your comfort zone? Not sure what to wear to the Beyond Beauty Gala? Ou from @oumaatelier shares her advice: try something new, show your personality, and let yourself glow.

Because Beyond Beauty isn’t just about what you wear, it’s about showing up boldly, confidently, and authentically.

Join us on September 12 for an unforgettable evening in support of women’s health research at BC Women’s Health Foundation @bcwomensfdn

Dress up. Glow beyond. Make an impact.

“To be an advocate for your own health.”

For so many women, symptoms are dismissed, questions go unanswered, and care is delayed. Linda Mah (@linda.mah.18) is using her voice—and her story—to change that.

Through Denise Lin’s 40/40 Photo Campaign, she’s helping shine a light on the realities of menopause and the urgent need for more research, awareness, and support in women’s health—while absolutely stunning in OUMA couture gowns.

Because being heard shouldn’t be the exception—it should be the standard.

Day one at the LOHO Bride trunk show ✨

@ouma_designer spent the day ensuring every detail was just right—from checking each gown and training the incredible LOHO Bride team to helping brides discover the dress that feels like them.

The best part? Watching amazing brides say "yes" to their OUMA dress on the very first day. 🤍 There's nothing more rewarding than seeing each gown find its person.

If you're in the area, the trunk show is just getting started. Book your appointment with LOHO Bride and experience the collection in person.

Enjoyed my first visit to @lacma so much! I made it fairly quick since I didn't have much time, but love the entire layout of the museum, as well as the arts I saw today. Hope to come back again soon!

Can't stop admiring the color and embroidery works on this Qing Dynasty Gua.

All these are hand sew stitches on silks.

I've never seen something like this in person. So amazing to see beautiful ancient garment from my own culture.

And reunited with one of my favorite artist.

Love the architecture so much and the entire layout of the museum felt very inspiring and relaxing.

See you again next time! taken in Hollywood by @ouma_designer
