One of our favorite wedding traditions is the first dance when the newlyweds dance following the ceremony.  We love seeing the bride in a stunning Little White (or Ivory!) Dress.  But beyond color, we also look for three important elements.

STYLE - We believe a fit and flare provides a stunning silhouette, especially when the Little White Dress is twirling (almost!) as gracefully as the new bride.

FIT - Not only does a well tailored garment feel better, it also drapes better and lessens the need for constant adjustments.

FABRIC - Silk is one of our favorite fabrics due to the nature of silk that gives it an elegant drape and sheen which is especially important for gorgeous pictures that your guests will be trying to take!

As pictured above, the Knox Strapless Dress fulfills all of our criteria and is at the top of our wish list.  The style, fit and fabric combine to create a modern, timelss dress that is destined to be your go-to for all of your elegant parties and chic celebrations.  We believe this dress should be in every bride's closet!

The bridal mini dress honors the heritage of 1960s couture and makes an equally compelling case as the second look.
