LeaAnn Belter

To round out the LeaAnn Belter portion of our 2010 bridal collection we offer you Zoe, Maya and Danielle. I always want to wax poetic about our exquisitely beautiful LeaAnns because I find them so inspiring, but to truly appreciate what makes them stand apart you need to see them for yourself. They're light as air, fit supremely well and are incredibly versatile and changeable. We love LeaAnn's uncompromising approach to design - never skimping but always using the finest laces and rich silks all throughout the gown and always paying close attention to details like exquisite hand beading with Swarovski crystals, freshwater pearls and cut beads. You see? I just can't help myself.

Class projects

As Laura continues to pour her incredible depths of bridal knowledge and wisdom into our new employees, she had them create a "story" of their choosing with our bridal collection. We so liked what they came up with that we thought we'd share!

First, Meghan (at 4:58, 5:01, most beautifully at 8:24 and again at 12:16 in Captured Moment's slideshow), having been a very sophisticated bride herself chose a trio of dresses for the "anything but strapless" bride. There are actually a plethora of such choices here at Premiere but I liked the diversity that Meghan's choices represented. Flirty, airy romance from LeaAnn Belter; clever, sophisticated and surprisingly forgiving charmeuse - also from LeaAnn Belter, or straight up glamour and elegance from Janet Nelson Kumar.
Julia, our new "model" employee, being the consummate college student decided to look into the fashion available at Premiere for a the "my taste exceeds my budget" bride and again the choices are impressive. You'll recognize our newest arrival from Claudine for Alyce, Anjali, that comes in at an exceptional $375, the saucy Nicole Miller plunging v-neck at $590 and our newest and flirtiest Robert Bullock that comes in at just $650. And there's more here and more to come!


Since we love these "stories" we're going to consider this post to be continued....

New LeaAnn Belter, Alyce Bridal and more...

New Arrivals with Strapless Sweetheart Necklines

You may notice that our newest arrivals share a few key characteristics - they are all light as air, have flattering strapless sweetheart necklines, emphasize a narrow midriff and have full or flowing skirts.

LeaAnn Belter's Jemma is truly a gem with rich embellished Alencon lace on the empire bodice set atop an extremely flattering ruched midriff and a full but ever-so-light box pleated silk dupioni skirt.

LeaAnn's Alina will be visiting us just for a while but she'll be beautiful while she's here with her fashionable babydoll cut and ethereal layers of tulle.

Janet Nelson Kumar's Camelia, also on furlough here at Premiere Couture, is fresh and flattering with a ribbon and hand-beaded applique accenting the curve of the empire bodice. The impossibly full skirt is achieved without pleats or gathers and thus remains incredibly flattering from hip to toe.

Anjali by Claudine for Alyce Bridal is sweet, informal gown in chiffon with a ruched bodice and flowing skirt. The flower pin at the empire waist is yours for the choosing - take it or leave it or maybe put it in your hair. And you won't believe this - she's only $375!

The selection within in our bridal collection is increasingly amazing and need to get in here and try them for yourself!

Simply Sensational

We have just received two of the coolest party/special occasion dresses I have ever seen. The geometrical banding that encompasses each of these flattering below-the-knee dresses do all the right things to your curves. These swank designs will feel comfortable anywhere and turn heads everywhere. And like the rest of our ready to wear collection, we offer our designs in very small quantities so that you know that a dozen other smart women will not show up dressed just like you at your next event!

Sleepless in Seattle

As many of you already know, February being being the month of Valentine's Day it is also Sleepless in Seattle month. How could we resist? It's time for some romance This iconic chick flick definitely stands the test of time - Tom Hanks is still funny and heart-rending and Meg Ryan is still charming. And as Laura mentioned on Facebook, it has an amazing soundtrack that made us fall in love with Harry Connick, Jr.

We had some fun with our gift with purchase this month as each of brides receive their own copies of An Affair to Remember and The Dirty Dozen. Don't know why this would be our gift? You definitely need to watch the movie again!
