In this edition we take a look at one
of the top shops in Derbyshire for Dessy dresses
and the ultimate prom online retailer - Reptonia.
Reptonia have been around for more than 30
years in the Derbyshire area. Starting off as
a high class ladieswear boutique in Repton (from
where the name came from) and building into
one of the top bridal boutiques in Derby.
"As the prom has become more prevelant
in schools in the UK we've had hundreds of requests
from girls wanting a solution to their gown
problem", says Dawn, owner and proprietor
of Reptonia. To this end, Dawn has secured a
number of design lines to help the young party-goer
find the dress of her dreams.
Dessy has been big in America for a fair while
now but they've experienced fantastic growth
since launching in the UK in 2005. With a fantastic
array of gowns, from elegant long gowns to cute
tea-length creations, and all available in a
myriad of colours, there is always something
to suit body shapes and budgets.
Reptonia stock most of the Dessy line in store
but you can also use their online store at www.reptonia-online-co.uk.
In the online shop Reptonia also stock some
other prom lines which are for internet purchase
only (not all styles shown in the internet shop
are available to buy in store).
Every season infuses some new designs and colours
to the prom season. It is therefore very important
to understand the trends and styles before going
out and buying a prom dress. This also saves
you the embarrassment of looking like history!
This seasons prom offerings are so colourful
that it will be easy for young girls to find
the right style, shades and silhouettes. With
the onset of spring and a rise in the mercury
level may see a rise in the hem lines of the
dresses.
Trendy hanky-hems will be the right look to
sport those long shapely legs. Plunging necklines,
low backs and form fitting ruching will be just
right to have the heads spinning. The halter
necklines with back detail are the best statement
you could make this season. The tried and trusted
Cindrella-like fantasy ball gown should work
fine for those who need that princess like look
and charm.
The basic fabrics too will play a decisive
role in this seasons look. Unique and mesmerizing
fabrics like charmeuse, shiny knits and tie-dyed
textiles in perfect harmony with the already
popular materials such as heavy shimmer, glitter
organza and ombre chiffon surly look promising.
Any dress is incomplete with the right embellishments
to punctuate its beauty. New variations of sequin
trim and medallion details, as well as paillettes
along with new patterns of embroidery and beading
are sure to take center stage. The other highlight
of this seasons fashion will be bright coloured
jewel tones in eye-arresting blues, oranges,
greens, yellows and pinks.
Color Cabaret: Its all about making a splash
this season, and bright jewel tones in blues,
oranges, greens, yellows and pinks are at the
top of the class.
Once you feel you have gained considerable knowledge
of the latest trends, you visit any of the local
stores or simply buy online.
Dont get disappointed if budget is your prime
concern you still have a envying amount of options
to find the best dress within your budget. No
matter what design you opt for, but ensure that
you feel comfortable and confident wearing the
dress. If that is not the case you will end
up ruining your evening than making it memorable.
