Fall 2011 Collection Release Party

On Saturday May 21st, we will have our release party for my Fall 2011 Collection. This new Collection was inspired by the amazing architectural designs of Frank Gehry, and is sexy, modern, and unique. This will also be the first time it will be shown in it's entirety. In addition, we will have a cocktail reception to coincide that will continue through the evening...so please join us for a fun night of new fashion, cocktails and good company! I have opened this event up to my Vendors, Brides, Fans, and whomever would like to attend, but you must RSVP and it is 21 and over only. Thank you and hope to see you there!
Regards,
Alina

So, if you are attending, please stop by and say hello to Emily as she will show you pieces from the new Collection and answer any questions you may have!

Fall 2011 Collection Inspiration

I have always been inspired by unique design when I look forward to creating my gowns. I look at shapes, forms, textures, and colors from many different places. One of my inspirations has always been architecture, and so with my newest Collection, Frank Gehry's incredible use of line, symmetry, folds, and hard edges has come to life in my fabrics. I will be releasing the Collection soon, but thought you might enjoy seeing some images that have inspired me on the new gowns. They are still very feminine and sexy, but have some interesting architectural features implemented. Subtle textures and pops of color add softness to the new line that will fit and flatter any Bride.
Enjoy...
