If you’ve never seen an episode of the show on TLC, Say Yes to the Dress, you clearly aren’t
living. If watching brides go to Kleinfeld in NYC and pick out a wedding dress
with probably some of the most brutally honest people they know and walking out
even more confused than they were before entered the store doesn’t put you in a
good mood than I don’t know what does.
Turns out, Kleinfeld has TONS of trunk shows all through
March and April, including Isaac Mizrahi March 22-24th. Isaac Mizrahi has dressed tons of celebrities
and notable women including Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, Audrey Hepburn, and
tons more. You can read more about him and his work here and check out some other trunk shows Kleinfeld offers.
Isaac Mizrahi creates these beautiful flowing gowns that
come in endless colors and fits. From strapless/princess ball gown, to
strapless mermaid gowns, every girl looking for that perfect dress is sure to
find what they’re looking for when they step into one of his trunk shows. Isaac
uses different fabrics and embellishments like satin, organza, lace, beads, and
don’t forget the tool! He
never fails to put on a show from start to finish and I’m not only talking
about the gowns.
At an Isaac Mizrahi trunk show, you can expect creative
desserts that have an elegant, yet effortless look that make you not want to
eat them but rather stand there and takes pictures (or at least that’s what I’d
do).
Trunk shows are so important for that close customer and
manufacture and designer relationship, which allows the customer to buy
directly from the show. I think this is a key part to bridal trunk shows, being
that a bride is 1. Wearing this dress on her “special night”, 2. looking for
her dream dress, 3. Probably starving herself so she looks absolutely flawless
in it, and 4. spending that much for a dress she’ll wear once, yea I would
think you would want to feel like the purchase is close and personal.
So whether you’re there to help give your input or looking
for a gown of your own, I think Isaac Mizrahi is a safe bet and should be on
the top of every girl’s list of bridal trunk shows to visit and create a
memorable experience.

I love your blog post! I have been obsessed with weddings, wedding gowns especially ever since I was a little girl and watched the Wedding Planner for the first time. I loved your pictures, especially of Princess Kate Middleton. Wedding gowns to me are so special and classic and your blog just made me that much more excited to one day go shopping for my own!
ReplyDeleteI can't even count how many times I remember seeing on Say Yes to the Dress a bride trying on a dress from a trunk show in Kleinfeld meet the designer and have that moment seal the deal. One of the things I love about trunk shows (at least from my experience in watching this TV show!) is that the designer has the ability to work with a bride to make her dream dress come true. The designer knows the worth of the gown, and is able to bring down the price in some cases, simply knowing that for every one dress they sell below IMU, they will sell dozens more and make a profit which makes up the difference, and then some!
ReplyDeleteWedding dresses are such unique and personal pieces, no wonder they take such pretty extraordinary design and selling techniques! I am also a big fan of SYTTD, so I've seen the kind of trunk shows you were talking about on the show - the work is always gorgeous and it adds so much to the brides' special experience to feel like they're getting new and unique styles.
