At the Bellagio

Last night saw me at the Bellagio Since I knew Edo Tone was showing his Tuxedo collection, plus I am always looking for ideas for my own wedding dress.
They really know how to put on an event here, Edo's suits were worn to perfection my special favourite the classic tailcoat (shown on the right):
The Tailcoat is the "King of formal wear." The Styles of Edo tailcoat is made from a fine worsted wool fabric with the trademark waist-length jacket and classic flexi-tails. According to the international formal dress rules, this evening coat with matching simple, black, worsted wool pants also has a crisp white wingtip collar shirt, an elegant white bow tie and matching white vest. Simple and refined, the tailcoat is worn at the most formal occasions. Suitable for an audience with royalty or for the most formal wedding or event, this is the evening coat that sets you apart as a discriminating, proper gentleman.
Styles of edo is nominated for Best Male Fashion Label at the Merovingi Fashion Awards, I will certainly be voting for him! Click the link above to add your support to this talented designer.

The exquisite gowns of Kimmera Madison of Tres Beau certainly complimented Edo Tones suits.
What a talented lady.
The detail in these dresses is stunning. From simple elegance to extravagant huge trains, even launching a a special edition gown called Bellagio (shown on the main news page), named for the fabulous Bellagio hotel and sim. A cinderella inspired gown of Taffeta and lace. Loads of layering, bows and flower accents. The Headpiece consists of pearls and flowers and a flowing lace veil. The dress also converts to a corset set with stockings and panties for the honeymoon !!For the fairytale bride with a naughty side choose Bellagio!!!!
The dress that especially caught my eye had to be Vivienne (shown far left), named after Kimmera's Mother. A traditional gown in Ivory Satin trimmed with Ivory lace. The embroidery on the bodice extends down into the full skirt and continues around to the train.
The dress itself is beautifully designed, but the reason it caught my eye is that it is an almost exact replica of the dress I myself married in 10 years ago in RL. I have to congratulate Kimmera on a design that is as beautiful today as it was then.
