American Wedding Dress Designers-Is There a Difference?


We are excited that Liancarlo, a wedding dress designer out of Florida, has agreed to do another trunk show in Kansas City! After such a busy wedding season, I really appreciate the difference of working with fine American wedding gown designers where the manufacturing is done in their own workroom. The attention to detail in design is far superior than those who draw a picture and send it to China to manufacture. Not only is the attention to design detail better and more creative, but the workmanship on the gowns is superior, the handwork is true artistry. Why doesn’t every bride want to wear such a garment, unfortunately price can be a factor. To think the wedding gown market is flooded with companies that make wedding gowns under a designer name who doesn’t even exist, definitely a different eye for detail, or lack there of! When looking for a wedding dress, think of what really makes your wedding dress special, is it the fabrication, attention to detail, design or quality of workmanship, or is it just a dress that is almost like an American made wedding dress? Many of the designers I know are truly passionate about what they do and are not just in it for the business, otherwise they would take their sketch and send it to China, make it cheaper and pocket a whole lot more money!
