Well, I made it back to Dallas exhausted but exhilarated. There were so many fantastic dresses at market that I’m giddy with excitement. (Yes, giddy.) Our big gown shoot is next week and I’m working feverishly to get some of the newest designs for it. I was going to write a little blurb about each designer I saw on the first day of market but when I thought about it I realized that you’d probably prefer to see dresses rather than read about them so I will post some of my photos here. Forgive me for any awkward angles or blurry images. It’s not easy to write notes and attempt to take photos of moving objects at the same time. Nonetheless, I think you’ll get the picture (pun intended). Enjoy!

The owner of Kleinfeld’s and their stylist, Randy (who you have seen on their show “Say Yes to the Dress” were at the Claire Pettibone show (amonst many others).
Several of Claire Pettibone's gowns had an Asian influence.

Out of character for Lela Rose (but done beautifully) is a floral A-line.
Lela's first foray into "bling" retains her simple, sophisticated style.
