Trunk Show Season is Here!
We couldn’t be more excited about our trunk shows the next two weekends! What exactly is a trunk show you may ask?? Trunk shows are an opportunity for bridal stores to showcase more of a designer’s collection for a weekend. We will have more colors, sizes, and styles than we usually stock for a particular designer…so it is a great time to shop and see more than is usually available.
Remember…trunk shows mean special promotions on new orders as well!

Gorgeous vintage bridal bling by LuluBelles
Brides…LuluBelles can also create a custom look for you or your bridal party as well! You can come chat with them in person about colors and styles for them to create a unique piece for your special day. One of our former brides had LuluBelles create each of her bridesmaids a custom necklace to reflect each of their personalities. They were a huge hit among the bridesmaids and something they can wear for many years to come. We look forward to seeing you at the trunk show!

Bridal Fashion Week is one of my favorite times all year! In case you are not familiar with just what bridal fashion week is, here is a brief overview…all of the most fabulous wedding industry professionals gather in New York at the same time! For example, we spotted the amazing wedding planner, Colin Cowie, and the stars of “Say Yes to the Dress: Atlanta” at the same appointments we were attending! This is the opportunity for designers to show their new collections for the upcoming year and talk to the stores that sell their lines and answer questions about what they foresee as the top sellers.
We then get to come home with gorgeous photos to show our brides and bridesmaids! Even though we have the photos, the actual dresses will not be in stores until January/February or later, depending on designer.
In meeting with all of the Twirl Lexington designers, here are just a few trends we saw for 2012…
Bridal:
Lace, organza and taffeta Jenny Yoo Bridal Collection
Love the silhouette and the swiss dot...can't wait for this one to arrive!
Bridesmaids:
Alfred Sung dress with fun bow at the neck
Jenny Yoo One-Shoulder dress
Lynn Lugo Ruffles
Lynn Lugo Bow Dress - would be adorable in white for a reception dress, too!
Amsale Chiffon and Charmeuse Gowns
Amsale Taffeta Gowns
Monique Lhuillier One Shoulder

We are so excited to show you all of these dresses in person! The iPad photos just do not do them justice! We would love to hear what you think…and if you would like to be notified when any of the new dresses arrive, please let us know! Call us at 859-309-2493 or email us at: ty@twirllexington.com.

When Elizabeth and her family first stepped into Twirl Lexington I could immediately tell they had impeccable taste and just exuded southern grace and charm. I knew her wedding was going to be beautiful with her incredible color palette of charcoal and soft pink! The photos certainly prove that…

Elizabeth and Matthew were married May 28, 2011 at Central Christian Church with the reception being held at the Keene Barn at Keeneland Racecourse in Lexington, Ky. The couple first met at as students at Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina. They both served as upperclassman staff on freshmen residence halls and began an instant friendship. After spending many hours studying in the library together, they finally went on their first date and the rest is history!

Above all, they wanted their wedding to be a celebration! Elizabeth and Matt both grew up in small towns, but eventually ended up in bigger cities. They wanted their wedding style to reflect both small town roots and big city flair and they pulled it all together with the help of Great Expectations.

Congratulations, Elizabeth and Matthew! Twirl Lexington wishes you a lifetime of happiness!
Almost daily at Twirl Lexington we are asked, “when should I order my wedding gown and bridesmaid dresses?” While there are many factors that go into this decision, our advice is to do it as soon as you know it is the one! Below are the top three reasons why you order when you know what you want.
So, go ahead, choose your dress, set up a fun bridesmaid fitting party at Twirl Lexington and take it off your long list of To Do’s before your I Do’s!
Happy Shopping!
Tiffany was such a fun, easy-going bride to work with. In fact, on her first trip to Twirl Lexington she picked out bridesmaid dresses during a Jenny Yoo Trunk Show without anyone even trying them on! She is certainly a lady who knows what she wants and goes for it!
Tiffany and Drew
Tiffany and Drew met through mutual law school friends at Harvey’s, right here in Lexington. They were married April 30, 2011 at St. Paul Catholic Church in Lexington and their reception was held at the Lexington Country Club. Another very big Royal wedding happened to take place the same weekend as Tiffany and Drew’s, if you recall! Tiffany and Drew certainly showed their sense of humor and surprised their rehearsal dinner guests with a very unique invitation!

Tiffany described her style as tradition and guest-centric. They wanted everyone to have fun and enjoy the evening. Tiffany chose cheery, bright citrus colors to showcase Spring in the Bluegrass. The bridesmaids wore three different styles of Jenny Yoo Collection dresses in Tangerine. For their bridesmaid gifts, Tiffany had each bridesmaid a custom necklace made by Lulubelles (sold at Twirl Lexington).

I love it when bridal parties come in to shop for bridesmaid dresses and someone remembers to bring a camera. Looking at bridesmaid dress styles on the Internet is helpful, but seeing a snapshot of yourself or your bridal party in dresses you’re interested in is even better. It’s one thing to see a model in a dress that has been altered to look just right for a photo shoot – seeing how a dress falls on a real person gives brides a much better idea of the true look of the dress.
A couple hints when bringing your camera:
-Remember that taking snapshots is just helping you to get an idea on the cut of the bridesmaid dresses you like. It doesn’t mean every single girl needs to try on the dress. Whether you’re shopping at Twirl Lexington or at another bridal boutique, sales consultants can help you determine dress silhouettes that look best on certain body types.
-Tell your bridesmaids to bring a strapless bra and heels. Some bridal stores provide heels in the fitting room, so it’s good ask when you make your appointment.
-Also remember that not every store allows photos, we at Twirl don’t have a problem with it, but many places do not allow photos, so respect their wishes.
Happy Shopping!
