This week will kick off a recap of this year’s April New York Bridal Market.  Designers and buyers meet in the big city twice a year to view and purchase the seasons newest gown styles.  Hard to believe that we are already planning for the arrival of gown for 2013 weddings!  First up, lets take a peek at the gorgeous collection by Modern Trousseau.  Designer Callie Tein never disappoints, in fact many of us RUN to her showroom specifically to see her latest use of gorgeous lace…we can absolutely confirm that Hayden Olivia will have the most luxurious laces and silks in Charlotte constructed in stunning silhouettes for 2013.  Modern Trousseau also hit the mark with full organza skirts, a few minis, and spectacular belts to accessorize.  Gowns will begin arriving within the week and our late spring trunk show is in May- a weekend to view the entire new collection!
