Day two at  Bridal Market in New York City brought us up close and personal with the latest bridal fashions.  It’s so nice to begin meeting with our gown and accessory designers to see their new collections.

What a great time to be a bride!  Gowns are full of femininity, details, and romance.

Yesterday was shopping in the Garment District-a full day of fabric lace and specialty suppliers!  We searched for and found new treasures to be brought home and added to our extensive samples for our brides seeking a Nancy Barrus Couture custom gown creation.

Today will be full of bridal market and designer appointments.

Current Events: Miss Utah

Friday, 29. January 2010 9:58

~by Cheryl

Whitney Merrifield, our very own Miss Utah, chose Nancy Barrus and her team to alter and customize two of her gowns for the Miss America Pageant. On her Talent gown (piano performance), they added nude sheer sleeves with swarovski crystals and silver cuffs to match the beautiful silk charmeuse variegated silver. Her Evening gown was customized to fit her form by adding a keyhole back and a new neckline, as well as adding a scalloped hem around the beading on the front slit of the gown. She was wonderful work with and the gowns turned out beautifully!

Whitney has been competing in preliminary rounds of the Miss America Pageant this week in Las Vegas. The culminating pageant will be held tomorrow night, Saturday, January 30th at 8PM EST on TLC.

We want to wish her good luck!
