Dress of the Week - Riviera

This week's DOTW is a secret. This gown is from a private line that's not found elsewhere in Canada (yet!). We're their first Canadian account and we couldn't be more proud!

Riviera is a lovely chiffon and satin empire-style gown. The top is ruched chiffon with a notched-v neckline with removable straps, and highlighted by a row of gold bugle beads before changing direction to go around the waist.

From under the bust, the satin gown falls straight down to the floor, with no train from the skirt. Instead, two chiffon sashes fall from the back zipper and can be worn in many ways. The bride can choose to have the sashes follow her like a train, or tied into a bow and fall to her knees, or even put over her shoulders like a wrap, and then tied into a sweet bow in the back.

Riviera (all of her!) will be on display on Thursday and Friday at Leaf & Petal Flower Salon in honour of the Royal Wedding! Paper Doll has joined with other vendors in the area to offer suggestions and answers to your questions from 2-6 on the 29th of April at Leaf & Petal. We hope you will stop by to talk with Teela and find out what Paper Doll can offer the discerning Island bride.

Paper Doll Formals is also having their own "Royal Wedding Royal Flush" in the store on the 29th and 30th. Every dress and shoe purchase entitles you to pull a card from the suit of hearts. That card determines your discount - from 2%-11%, but if you pull the Jack, you save the HST. Pull the Queen and save 15%. Pull the King and save 20%!!

Paper Doll Formals is the only store in Canada (as of this writing) have Riviera in store, along with two of her friends, La Vega and Dominica. If you're looking for something exclusive and in a surprisingly inexpensive price point, then this line is for you. We'd love to see you from 10-6 (except not on Monday - we're recovering from our chocolate hangover that day so we're closed).
