Amsale G361T

My favorite dress this week is Amsale G361T.  It’s a strapless, floor length bridesmaid dress with a slight sweep train.  There’s also crinoline under the skirt which helps the dress hold it’s shape, but could be removed if desired.  This dress is for the more formal evening wedding. The dress is elegant and has a traditional feel to it without looking like the stereotypical bridesmaid dress. 

What’s really great about this dress is the ruching on the bodice.  It sweeps across the body and cinches at the left side of the waist.  This will emphasize and even create the smallest part of the waist making everyone who wears it look smaller than they actually are.  The fabric is tissue taffeta which feels very smooth and rich.  Another characteristic of tissue taffeta is that it has a lot of dimension to it and light will give it a nice sheen.

The dress is available in 17 sophisticated colors.  It also comes in a short style (G704T) if you’re looking for something a little easier to move around in.  You can accessorize this dress with a brooch where the ruching cinches at the waist.  Amsale also offers a wrap in the same fabric and colors for fall and winter weddings when the weather is cooler or for more conservative ladies who desire more coverage.

Jacqueline and Jacob exchanged their vows at the Eagle Mountain Golf Clubin Fountain Hills, Az. Their fabulous pictures were taken by photographer  Cassandra Heiser. Jacqueline’s stunning bridesmaids wore dresses by Jim Hjelm (style #5935 in Scarlet).

Now I have to share a story with you that Jacqueline shared with me. The day of her wedding, after confirming earlier that same morning, Jacqueline’s makeup artist did not show up. Can you imagine? After several un-returned phone calls and messages, Jacqueline accepted that he would not be coming and realized she would now be doing her own makeup for her special day. It all ended up working out, and as you can see from the pictures she looked beautiful, but talk about un-needed stress. She did say a bridesmaid came to her rescue by having extra lashes for her to use! Way to be prepared! :) To add to the crazy day, when she finally got to her husband, she was filling him in on the day (true agravation coming though in both her tone and choice of words) only to realize that her husband had his mini mic on and everything was caught on tape by the videographer! It’s so nice that Jacqueline was able to laugh all this off and focus on what that day was truely about – her and Jacob! :)

Congratulations to Jacqueline and Jacob. Thank you for sharing your day with Twirl (and your stories)! We wish you all the happiness in the world!
