The popular ready-to-wear collection from NYC, chloe & reese, have just launched an exclusive bridal-inspired collection called Ardour. The new label offers thousands of customized dress options, making it a perfect choice for brides and the bridal party.
Below is an excerpt from the press release I have received:
The Ardour Collection features a range of party frocks, full-length dresses and high-waisted skirts. With a variety of stylish and chic silhouettes; from a flirty one-shoulder silk faille party frock, to elegant floor-length taffeta gowns, sweet silk dresses trimmed in feminine ruffles, to classic strapless sheaths, Ardour's customization will offer something special for every bride, and every budget. Produced in New York City's Garment District, Ardour is available through the company's Manhattan showroom at 888.317.1695.

"We're excited about the debut of Ardour because it speaks to the expansion of the chloe & reese brand to the bridal luxury market," said Annmarie Scotto, chloe & reese and Ardour designer. "Ardour offers unmatched versatility and custom, personalized options - our unique range of selections available for the bride's special events and her bridal party will be a resource for the modern and sophisticated bride, who appreciates quality, style and customization that reflects her individual wedding aesthetic."

With the launch of Ardour, shopping for the perfect wedding attire can now be simplified - brides and bridal parties select a dress style, and then choose from the hundreds of luxury fabrications and color options imported from France and Italy. The custom design process for the Ardour Collection complements chloe & reese’s international e-commerce custom shoppe, at www.chloeandreese.com. The Ardour Collection will ship worldwide, and the company's Bridal Specialists will work closely with out-of-state and international customers to send swatches, photographs and samples for brides who are unable to visit the Manhattan showroom. For further information, please call 888.317.1695.

And, for those that might be looking for a little black dress, there are some cute ones available at www.chloeandreese.com {two appear to be navy below, but each one is available in black, as well as other colors}. I personally LOVE the first two.
