Wedding Fashion – More Than Just the Gown!

7 December 2009 No Comment View all Articles by: Darren Wilson
When people consider fashion and weddings, the first thing they always think about is the wedding gown. Obviously, from a fashion perspective, the gown is the most important part of the bride’s wardrobe, but there are plenty of other events she will be attending that may require special attire. The most common examples would be engagement parties, rehearsal dinners, bridal showers, bridesmaid luncheons, day-after brunches, and the wedding reception, where some brides will change out of the gown and into a more comfortable dress.  Even the honeymoon may need to be considered, as the bride may want a sexy new cocktail dress or outfit to wear.
Besides the wedding itself, the required attire for these other functions varies widely and depends heavily on the theme that the bride is trying to convey. Dress for engagement parties and rehearsal dinners can vary anywhere from black tie to casual. Bridal showers, bridal luncheons, and next day brunches are typically a more casual affair. Regardless, the bride, bridal mothers, and bridal party always want to look their very best.
Claire’s Fashions offers a one stop shopping solution to address the fashion needs for the bride and her entire bridal party. For formal events and the wedding/reception, Claire’s Fashions offers a stunning selection of gowns and dresses from full to cocktail length. If the event or dress code calls for a more relaxed look, Claire’s carries a great selection of daytime dresses and upscale casual separates, perfect when you are trying to maintain a more casual but still sharp and stylish appearance. Need something fresh for the honeymoon?  Claire’s has that covered too, with a fantastic selection of sexy short dresses and fun separates. Of course, Claire’s Fashions is also the place to find the perfect bridal gown, bridesmaid gowns, gowns for the bridal mothers, and any bridal fashion accessory the bride could need.
In December, Claire’s Fashions has several exciting events taking place. Our brand new bridal boutique will open for business, featuring a stylish sales floor dedicated to brides and their bridal parties. If will be a fun and relaxed atmosphere, designed to provide brides with a superior customer experience while finding the gown of their dreams.  Claire’s will also be hosting a trunk show with the Mon Cheri Bridals line – featuring samples of the brand new Spring 2010 collection.
