New Spring 2009 Dresses!

This week we received our new Spring 2009 gowns from Vera Wang! They are beautiful! Two are from her Opening Collection, one is from her Main Collection, and the other is from her Luxe Collection.


Theses two dresses are from her Opening Collection. The first dress is style 1G029. She is a tulle ballgown with a Chantilly lace bodice. It is so light for a dress with so much volume! The bodice is just beautiful! Chantilly lace is very soft and delicate, so it creates a very romantic look. I also love love love the ivory grosgrain ribbon! It is an option so you don't have to do it but it is a sweet little touch.

The second dress is style 1G059. She is a modified a-line gown with an organza skirt and faille bodice. I adore the bow on this dress. Its a bow without being too much. Organza is a flowy fabric, so this dress moves very well when you walk in it.


The first dress in this section is from Vera's Main Collection. She is style 11589. Our gown is sampled in Slipper Satin, though it also comes in Duchesse Satin. There isn't a huge difference between the two except that Duchesse is more expensive. I love how simple and elegant this dress is. The front is a blank slate, perfect to do a great bouquet of flowers with or a sash with a broach. The back of her is stunning with the draping that is done. I really like the overlapped train. It adds a little modernity to such a classic cut.

The final dress we recieved is named Joan. She is from Vera's Luxe Collection. The bands are made of bias cut Duchesse and Organdy. I love the little bows on the back. Though they are an option, I think they are just darling! She is a slightly more fitted modified a-line than some of our others, though she is not quite as fitted as a mermaid. This is such a classic gown! The elements of the design will never go out of style!

I sure hope that these images inspire you as you plan your wedding. As always, if you need anything or have any questions, please leave a comment or send us an e-mail! We always love to share our advice and expertice.
