Sneak Peak - Arc Hotel Shoot

I walked into the Arc Hotel last Sunday for the shoot and was in awe of what surrounded me. Make up artists, hair stylists, assistants, models, stylists, photographers, EVERYONE was buzzing around in preparation for the photo shoot. I felt like I was on the set of a Hollywood film, it was outstanding. And to top it off I was in a dream closet come true!! Jewels, heels and evening gowns were everywhere. It was wonderful for Mia Bridal Co. to be involved in such a way.Although Dan (the amazing photographer) and Viresh (model manager extraordinaire) are still working on the images, here is one...many more to follow!

Speaking with a client the other day inspired this particular blog. She happened to recognize a gown because she saw it in the movie ‘The Hangover’. I thought it would be fun to list some of these famous gowns here, a collage of sorts. We've all seen these movies, so hopefully you'll recognize a few of these famous frocks!

I just love the idea of mixing complimentary colours and styles!

The Arc

I met Viresh of CoverModels Management at the Posh Wedding Show last month.  We got along wickedly and we promised that we would work together again soon. Well...he sure  delivered!!! On Sunday, March 20th  Mia Bridal Co. will be dressing his gorgeous models in couture bridal dresses for The Arc Hotel website photo shoot. We are amongst some of the best local shops and jewellers dressing the models for this chic shoot. Howard Jewellers and Morgante menswear will represent, as well as many more local trendsetters and stylists. Photographer Dan Ziemkiewcz will photograph while Viresh will direct. I look forward to seeing the finished, gorgeous product. Although these aren't the specific gowns in the shoot, the look and feel are similar.                                    

                                                                  Modern. Fresh. Opulant.

 

Prom

Some amazing high school grads have stopped by the shop to  find their dress for prom. Here are some of our house favourites. Looking back at my own prom dress (forever ago) I could have used Mia Bridal Co.!!

 I love the look of this dress by Amsale. It's simple, effortless and available in some beautiful colours. If you're one to accessorize, this is the style to do that. It looks incredibly rich with big, bold jewelry.

Just in, we love this new dress by Jim Hjelm. The cocktail length skirt is layered for a soft ruffle effect
(big right now).  It has the perfect sweetheart neckline and can be accented at the waist with a big sparkly belt.

This dress by Lazaro is adorable! I love the full, flirty skirt. Equipped with pockets for your fave lip gloss.

Happy shopping!
