Jasmin from Switzerland on her hooded cape from “Three wishes for Cinderella”:

“Dear Christina,

Our wedding was gorgeous. Everyone was enthused about my cape. When it started to snow our mood was perfect - just magical. I felt like Cinderella and enjoyed every minute of it. You made my dream come true to wear a cape even more beautiful than in the movie! Therefor I thank you with all my heart. The fabric you chose is so soft and beautiful. The silky flannel lining saved me from freezing even at -6° C.

Greetings, Jasmin”

“Dear Christina,
