Chicago Update, Part 1
Laura and I spent last Sunday basking in fashion down in Chi-town and now I want to give you a little gander at the coming attractions at Premiere Couture. (Here's an additional sneak peek.)
First up, we spent our morning with Robert Bullock and his fabulous frocks. But the wedding gowns will come in part two. What I'm sharing with you here in part one is this amazing mother's dress that will be gracing our presence this fall! It is so super flattering that we're certain moms looking for something more than ordinary will love it! We know we were totally smitten!
Next up is Stop Staring, a super collection of dresses born and bred in the USA that pay homage to the glamorous fashions of the fifties. They're marketing is racier than we love, but their dresses are actually very lady-like and super flattering. And while they'll be part of our ready-to-wear collection, they're also available for reorder in sizes up to 18! Woot!
We are super happy to re-introduce the Dessy Group to our bridesmaid collection! We offered Dessy and After Six for years but when we moved to Madison we eliminated any collection that was already represented in Madison. After continually fielding calls requesting these designs it finally dawned on us that the way was free and clear for us to once again offer these fashionable and affordable designs. One of the four lines we picked up is the Lela Rose collection - we really loved the softness and femininety of the designs.
Another new addition to our ready-to-wear collection is YA - young, fresh designs that are so cute and affordable ($40 - $60!) that you'll want to fill your closet with them! They are perfect for attending weddings, graduation parties or for the graduation ceremony. We should start receiving dresses as early as this month with new designs arriving all summer long! Yay!
That's it for now! Stay tuned for part two: a new bridal gown collection, a sneak peek at new Robert Bullocks and more new ready-to-wear!

Janet Nelson Kumar to the rescue!
We continually talk about how choosy we are when deciding which designers to represent in our edited collection. Being choosy means that we can deliver certain things and assurances that other shops simply cannot. It also means that we work with the very best of the best. A recent situation highlighted this very clearly.
Less than two weeks ago, on Wednesday, March 16, a bride contacted us with a problem and she wondered if we could help her out. Tammy had visited our store when she was shopping for a bridal gown but decided to purchase her gown online instead. Unfortunately, her online gown "fell through" and I honestly do not know the circumstances to tell you why. But the great part of this story is that she had really liked one of our gowns, "Whisper" by Janet Nelson Kumar, and she wondered if it was still possible to get it in time for her wedding which was just NINE DAYS away! Did I mention that she got married this last Friday? Impossible, right? Wrong. Janet was able to make a custom gown in a single week - it was delivered last Thursday! And then remarkable Joyce, of Bridals by Joyce, was able to complete Tammy's alterations in less than a day so she was able to confidently walk down the aisle in a completely beautiful, completely custom bridal gown. While this isn't the first time one of our amazing designers has come through with a miracle, in fact each of them has performed miracles on behalf of our customers, we are ever amazed at what they can accomplish. Thank you Janet and congratulations Tammy! And thank you for letting us share your story!

New from Sara Gabriel, Janet Nelson Kumar, Nicole Miller and Touch Ups
We have new arrivals from Sara Gabriel, Nicole Miller, Janet Nelson Kumar and Touch Ups! Plus, since we had Julia here to model for us, we had her model Lynn Lugo's bridal gowns since we only showed them on mannequins before. We also threw in a Suzi Chin that's perfect for the informal wedding or as a rehearsal dinner dress but now we only have one left!
First here's several of our new Sara Gabriel pieces - we have several more, too, that we just haven't photographed yet! They are all amazingly beautiful and fun!
Here's that cute little Suzy chin I mentioned! Isn't this silk dupioni number a dazzler? Just one left!
Another winner from Nicole Miller in mocha Techno Metal - we can't get enough of it!
Just one of our new pairs of Touch Ups along with another great new piece from Sara Gabriel!
Remember Champagne Cup from Janet Nelson Kumar? We finally have ours! Yay! I think I blogged about it before but now you see it on beautiful Julia. I always prefer to see them on a real person, don't you?
Again, we took the opportunity to show some designs, Lynn Lugo bridal designs to be exact, that we received earlier but on a real person this time. First up is Jaden with one of Lynn's simple but striking sashes and a feather flower from Imagine Bliss.
Lynn Lugo's Dakota is a stunner! And as with all of the bridal gowns, she comes with a crazy fun detachable flower with a broach center.
Colleen by Lynn Lugo is especially special in silk satin! Did you notice the striking new belt from Sara Gabriel?
