The complete list of styles traveling the country for the bridal trunk show tour.

In our previous post, we went over the ins and outs of how bridal trunk shows work.  Well, in this post, we are going to list all the bridal styles you’ll find on tour for winter 2019 and spring 2020.  As an added bonus, we’re including ideas on how you can design your own wedding dress with customizations!

Design your wedding dress!

Before we get into the trunk show dresses and their specific customizations, we want to go over a few things.  These are general customizations that can apply to most if not all the styles on tour:
 
  • SWAPPING FABRICS. This is not a problem when the two fabrics have a similar feel.  That way the fit and silhouette are not altered. This means a drapey fabric like crepe can be substituted for another drapey fabric like charmeuse.  Likewise, our plain mikado weave - which is a stiffer fabric - can be swapped for either of our textured jacquards.
 
  • INTERCHANGEABLE CREPE. We offer two kinds of crepes that are interchangeable.  The differences are the fiber content and the price. Our silk crepe is 100% silk, while our less expensive Italian crepe is a synthetic blend.
​
  • MIXING AND MATCHING. For the most part, mixing tops and skirts is an easy customization request.  This is especially easy to do when there is a waistline seam. We've had a bride create a combination we refer to as the “Cara.” She took the top of the Zara dress and combined it with the a-line skirt of our Coco dress (now discontinued).
​
  • TRAIN LENGTHS.  We can also lengthen or shorten a wedding dress’s train.  For this, your bridal stylist will have to take a measurement of how much to add or subtract, and send that to us.
​
  • MORE COVERAGE.  Similarly, if you want a little more modesty, raising the neckline or back of a style is something that we can do! As long as your bridal stylist takes the measurements to send to us. That way we know how much fabric to add.
​
  • BUTTONS.  Our button options are also interchangeable. We have: pearl buttons, heart Swarovski crystal buttons, round Swarovski crystal buttons, and fabric-covered buttons.  The crystal buttons are silver unless otherwise requested. And, the fabric-covered buttons are made to match the fabric around it. (i.e. a crepe dress with crepe buttons).  On a related note, you can also request to add buttons down the train of your dress! If the dress already has buttons, we will match the spacing all the way down. But if your dress doesn’t have buttons, we can space them at ½” or ¾” apart.
​​
  • EXTRA YARDAGE.  Extra yardage of your style’s fabric can always be ordered if you should want or need it
Remember that some customizations do come with an added fee.  So, always have your bridal stylist check with us first!
