Special Occasion Dresses and Mother of the Bride Dresses Go Green!

November 27, 2010 By blakean

Green is among the latest trends at weddings – and I don’t mean the color green. I am talking about the latest eco-friendly special occasion dresses and mother of the bride dresses. Eco-friendly is in and the wholesale dress industry better take notice. Not only are the dresses going green – but the wedding themes in general are becoming more environmentally-friendly. Eco-conscious couples are turning towards donations towards charitable causes in lieu of wedding favors. Free range chicken has made it onto the menu at recent weddings. It only makes sense that special occasion dresses would follow suit. It is a terrific idea for dress wholesalers to prepare themselves for the eco-conscious brides. Special occasion dress wholesalers and mother of the bride dress wholesalers need to offer environmentally-friendly fabrics. Some eco-friendly fabrics used to make special occasion dresses include organic cotton, silks, hemp and in extreme cases recycled newspaper. (I still believe that the New Times is meant to read – not to wear as a special occasion dress.)

However special occasion dress wholesalers need to take notice that the terms “organic” and “eco-friendly” aren’t just for the grocery. Going green has taken the fashion world by storm. What makes special occasion dresses eco-friendly? These special occasion dresses are made of biodegradable materials that do not harm the environment.

What was once considered the fashion of the hippies has emerged as a booming fashion industry. Eco-friendly designers are special occasion dress lines have what it takes to continue being stylish for 2010 and beyond!

A previous Blake & Company blog reported that October 10^th, 2010 would be a big wedding day – and it certainly was! 10-10-10 saw a huge rise in weddings as more than 33,000 couples registered for the date at the online wedding site The Knot. That’s a whole lot of mother of the bride dresses, mother of the groom dresses and special occasion dresses.

On a typical Sunday, The Knot has about 5,000 weddings registered. 10-10-10 showed an increase of almost 600% in the number of mother of the bride dresses!

There were plenty of celebrities who chose 10-10-10 to seal their nuptials – Crystal Bowersox of American Idol fame married fellow musician Brian Walker. Bowersox wore a eco-friendly organic, hemp and cotton dress. I wonder if the mother of the bride dress was also eco-friendly?

Brothers & Sisters star Dave Annable and actress Odette Yustman were also married on the once in a millennium date. Odette looked gorgeous in her gown (pictured above) as I’m sure the mother of the bride did as well.

Alexa Vega, star of the Spy Kids movies, exchanged vows with Sean Covel, Napoleon Dynamite producer. Spy Kids Director Robert Rodriguez walked Vega down the aisle as she looked stunning in her gown. Vega’s mom, Gina Rue – a model was surely dresses to kill in an amazing mother of the bride dress.

In addition approximately 200 weddings were performed at one very popular wedding chapel in Las Vegas! A special occasion dress wholesaler could’ve had a field day by scheduling a Vegas Wholesale Special Occasion Dress Trunk Show next door! It’s hard to say how many mothers of the bride and mothers of the groom made the trip to the Vegas Strip…

Here’s a tip to Special Occasion Dress Wholesalers: November 11th, 2011 is 11-11-11. Pitch a sales tent on the Vegas Strip – it’s a guaranteed jackpot!
