Oscar de la Renta trunk show at Bisou Bridal

Oscar de la Renta will be showing their 2012 spring bridal collection at Bisou Bridal in Vancouver (440 west 2nd avenue) on February 4th and 5th.
You will get the chance to try on 30 of their best selling dress'

You must reserve your appointment, call Bisou Bridal @ 604-696-0880

Now for the good stuff. Pictures!! Here are a few of my favorite dress' from their spring 2012 line.

I always love me a good mermaid style dress, I also think this dress would be more practical and would be easier to walk in.
 A very beautiful sweetheart bodice with a large cascading ruffle skirt.
And then this little number, I think it is totally unexpected, perfect for the bride that doesn't want the A typical bridal dress.

After 65 years well known bridal chain "Priscilla of Boston" is going out of business

Very sad but true another well known bridal chain is done. Kaput! But what is the most horrifying of this story is what they did with their left over inventoy. Like other well known big box stores that have had to get rid of their inventory at some point, Priscilla of Boston decided the best thing to do was spray paint the dress' (ruining them) and throw them in the dumpster..... REALLY?!?!?!? Some of those dress' were reported to have been worth $6000.... and now they're in the bottom of a dumpster. There are just too many brides out there right now that are trying to just have a wedding, let alone a nice fancy dress, why couldn't these dress' been donated to one of the many charities?

I hope that in the future other brands think first before they act next time. It's just so infuriating. :(
