ELIZABETH DE VARGA - TRUNK SHOW

The Elizabeth de Varga Exclusive Fashions label began in 1984 and has grown to be a recognized force in the fashion industry, particularly in bridal wear.  Brides of Adelaide, this is a once off opportunity to view the entire selection of their best designs.  This spectacular annual trunk show event is proudly hosted by Jenny & Gerry's Bridal House, where you will be able to meet and speak to the designer herself, Tammie Nitschke, who will be in Adelaide over the 2 days and in-store to offer all her expertise and bridal styling advice. These spectacular gowns are made entirely in Australia from the finest local and imported fabrics available. The inspiration for the gowns comes from many areas.  A love of fine laces, pure silks, delustred satins, rich brocades, delicate tulles and hand bead-work all create the Elizabeth de Varga Exclusive Fashions distinctive image.

On Saturday 28th of April, Jenny & Gerry's Bridal House we will be popping bubbles to celebrate this event and a live model will showcase every gown to truly appreciate these exquisite gowns which are all made in silks, silk satins, silk chiffons and French laces to die for!

SAJA

Sometimes the perfect choice is a simple one. These stunning gowns from Saja are somehow understated and breathtaking all at once. The ethereal flowy fabrics, the delicate beading, the timeless design. I look at these dresses and I can just imagine what it would feel like to wear one, they look ridiculously comfortable. I suspect it's because of that sumptuous draping? They look... effortless... in the very best possible way. Based out of New York, the sole international store is in Canada. We would like to register our vote for Australia next please? Adelaide to be specific? Saja also has a range of belts, sashes and boleros that are as beautiful as the gowns themselves and did I mention that the entire Saja collection is amazingly nicely priced?

STATEMENT NECKLACES

I simply cannot tell you how much I love a statement necklace. Whether worn all day or as a bold addition to reception attire they are just the ultimate in personality filled glamour. With no end of gorgeous styles, from dramatic crystal pieces, to bohemian chic, to exotic explosions of colour - your statement necklace really can be anything you want it to be and a perfect expression of you. It's also has the added advantage of being a trend with an option to suit any budget. Adelaide's fabulous Miss Martini has a stunning array of statement pieces and would be a brilliant place to start the hunt for your own jaw dropping piece. Good luck!

TEMPERLEY LONDON SPRING 2012

I really don't think I have the words to describe the Temperley London Spring 2012 wedding collection? I am head over heels in love with nearly every piece, which when you consider the range of styles in this line is quite incredible really! One thing that all these gowns have in common however, is their jaw-dropping show-stopping timeless and feminine design. Hardly surprising from the genius wedding gown goddess that is Alice Temperley, nor is the intricate detail. So very hard to try and choose which gowns to picture and near impossible for any of us here in the office to firmly name a favourite! It could be the gown pictured first, or the second... but it could also be the fourth & the eighth is definitely a contender to take out the favourite title... Perfection perfection perfection.

Fabulous Feminine Style

I just love Michael Bublé’s new wife, Luisana Loreley Lopilato de la Torre's wedding dress below.  Luisana actually wore a trio of dresses for the couple’s two weekend wedding ceremonies! My favourite gown of the three featured below is a gorgeous satin bodice with a plunging neckline, plus a feminine tiered skirt consisting of layers of tulle and ribbons with silk thread embroidery. To complete her look, Luisana wore a pair of Christian Louboutin heels - absolutely stunning - definitely one of my favourites of the year so far!!!
