“Magic” Mother Of The Bride and Groom Dresses

There are “dresses” and there are “magic dresses”. These are styles that are often difficult to convince the customers to try on but, once she does she loses 10 pounds, gets taller and feels so amazing she has to have the dress. This is why Mother of the Brides and Mother of the Grooms have to have an open mind when shopping. The sales people in the stores that work with clients have seen everything and really know what is going to flatter all body types. Here are just a few of our “magic” dresses from Daymor, Damianou, Ideas by Barbara, Scaravelli, Sia Sia, JSS Knitwear and VM by Mori Lee.

Kate Middleton’s Wedding Gown Designer Announced? Who is the Designer of Kate Middelton’s Wedding Dress?

who-is-kate-middletons-wedding-dress-designerThe Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton is just weeks away and there is still much speculation as to who designed the wedding dress.  It seems that the Royal Family still has not confirmed it publicly, but insiders think that Libélula designer Sophie Cranston is the special occasion dress designer of choice.  Middleton has worn other Cranston designs in the past, and may have chosen Cranston for what some are calling the the most influential special occasion dress of the century.

Some special occasion dress insiders speculated that the designer Kate Middleton chose would be either Sarah Burton, Bruce Oldfield or Alice Temperley.  Here at Blake and Company, we were rooting for Daymor Couture, Damianou, Ideas by Barbara, SIA SIA, Scaravelli, JSS Knitwear or VM by Mori Lee

It is also predicted that there will be more than one dress just in case something happens to the first dress.  It is speculated that the designer has not been officially named is to protect the designer from a media frenzy.  You just can’t pay for that kind of publicity in the world of special occasion dress designers.

It is a huge responsibility to create such an unforgettable gown that is certain to be seen by billions around the world.  This special occasion dress is sure to be emulated and immortalized in royal and fashion history.

There are only 2 weeks left before the Royal Wedding and the fashion world waits with baited breath for the special occasion dress of the century to be unveiled.  Bridal industry and special occasion dress insiders predict Middleton’s gown to be replicated many times over as soon as the world gets its first glimpse.

Special Occasion Dress Tips by Blake and Company: New York’s Premier Mother of the Bride and Special Occasion Wholesale Dress Showroom

special occasion dresses nycHave you recently been invited to a wedding?  Spring and Summer weddings are upon us and guests must decide on what to where.  When selecting a special occasion dress there are a few tips to keep in mind.  First, let’s remember the cardinal rule: Never wear a white special occasion dress to a wedding unless you are the bride.

Okay, now that we got the obvious rule out of the way, some of the other tips may be a bit more subtle.  Do you think it’s a good idea to wear a black special occasion dress to a summer wedding?  It’s not.  Be bold, don’t bother playing it safe.  Black special occasion dresses can be used for a night on the town, but be bold and instead choose a bright special occasion dress to a summer wedding.

If you really want to make a hit this season, try a long, soft, floral print special occasion dress for a chic and trendy.  Blake and Company has many different special occasion dresses on display at our New York City Wholesale Special Occasion Dress Showroom.  We are the official dress showroom of Daymor Couture, Damianou, Ideas by Barbara, SIA SIA, Scaravelli, JSS Knitwear and VM by Mori Lee.

The Wedding of the Century May Be Just Around the Corner – Do You Know What Dresses Your Clients Will Be Wearing?

Celebrity weddings are one thing, Kate Middleton’s wedding will be the one of the most celebrated weddings of the century.  What?  You’ve never heard of Kate Middleton.  She has been Prince William’s girlfriend for the past 9 years.  She is also on track to become Prince William’s wife.

Celebrity WeddingsIt seems that the couple is finally ready to announce their engagement.  Middleton has been giving signs as of late that she is very much the Royal bride in waiting.  At various special occasions in the Royal circles, she has been having custom made special occasion dresses made. 

Due to the hefty pricetags, these one of a kind special occasion dresses are not for everyone.  Clients who want to look like a million bucks without spending a million should turn to couture special occasion dresses and gowns by Daymor, Damianou, Ideas by Barbara, SIA SIA, Scaravelli, JSS Knitwear and VM by Mori Lee

Blake and Company’s New York Wholesale Special Occasion Dress Showroom has plenty of wonderful styles to make your clients look like superstars.  At our NYC Wholesale Special Occasion Dress Showroom you can find stylish dresses to be worn for daytime events and evening cocktail parties.

Rumor has it that Kate’s mother, Carole Middleton, a former stewardess, has been preparing for a June or early July 2011 wedding.

Official word from the Royal Palace is that there is no official word, but that hasn’t stopped a number of leading caterers from submitting wedding proposals.

While Kate and Prince William’s friends maintain that they are unofficially engaged – custom dictates that Kate must wait patiently for Prince William to ask his grandmother, the Queen for permission to make the announcement official.

From past comments, Prince William has made it clear in previous comments that he is not planning a wedding in the Queen’s diamond jubilee year and he has mentioned a quiet wedding location, perhaps in Scotland.

Scotland or England, this wedding is sure to be the wedding of the century and it may be a good idea to come check out the latest styles of special occasion dresses at Blake and Company’s NYC wholesale showroom – just in case you end up with an Royal invitation.
