A Chat With Our Virtual Stylists Alana Sirota and Kendall Huibregste

Kendall

My fav dresses right now are:

  • Inbal Dror’s 16-05 - the color & fit is to die for

  • Reem Acra’s Flock of Angels - love the slit, an edgy twist to an otherwise classic dress 

  • Monique Lhuillier’s Alexandra - beyond romantic and the prettiest lace, ML is the lace queen 

  • Berta’s 17-135 - a fully beaded, glamorous dress that still feels bridal & elegant 

Here’s a tip for brides who are struggling with figuring out postponing wedding events and up-in-the-air timelines:

Stay calm and know that your wedding is going to feel as special as it did, even if you had to postpone. And if you had to postpone - know that planning flies by and even the day itself is over in the blink of an eye... so you get to enjoy being a bride for even longer, which is a pretty special 🥰 it only happens once! 

My quarantine routine…

During quarantine I’m eating a lot of home-cooked meals, salads and take out. Binging Grey’s Anatomy from the beginning, and still trying to get 8-10k steps in going on long walks with my dog & boyfriend. Listening to a lot of Banks and Kacey Musgraves 🎶

Alana

Current favorite dresses:

  • My new fav is Berta Privee 20-P105 - it makes any waist tiny!

  • YolanCris’ Estrella Boho gown for beach destination wedding.

  • Ines di Santo’s Margot Old Hollywood glamour.

  • Monique Lhuillier’s Everest. Just so much fun!

Here’s a tip to get brides ahead of the game for their visit to shop with us when this is all over!

Define what silhouette do you see yourself walking down the aisle. Define the fabrics you love. Who will accompany to your appointment that will help you to say yes the dress.

My quarantine routine…

I’ve been talking loooong walks, supermarket runs for my elderly neighbor, lots of cooking, Listening to DJ Nice, Netflix and most important catching up on SLEEP 😴 💤

Our Invite Only Influencer Preview of the Berta Napoli Collection

We invited three stylish women (whose Instagram’s we adore, obviously) to visit the boutique before the official launch of the Berta Napoli Collection Trunk Show to try on the gowns and take some photos to inspire our future #realchicbrides. Each had a distinct personal style (two were engaged!) and we were thrilled to see these chic dresses come to life when they were put on by these chic new friends!
