Lindsay Fleming 2010 Bridal Collection
The ‘Roaring Twenties’, the decade of the bath tub gin, the model T Ford, The Jazz Singer, and a celebration of life and youth after the dark war years. It was the age of the flapper, and the Charleston, the Bunny Hug and the Kickaboo, late night parties, and clubbing to the music of Jelly Roll Morton. Skirts shortened, breasts were flattened, and waistlines were slung on the hip. This was the decade of Art Deco and Cubism, and couture houses of the time livened up their designs by incorporating the art scene into their clothing.
This thrilling, care free period in history is the inspiration for our stunning Autumn 2009 collection of historical gowns, due to be premiered at the Scottish Wedding Show in September. Influenced by the creative genius’s of Coco Channel, Paul Poiret, and the surrealist inspired Elsa Schiaparelli, these gowns not only will transport you back to the days of Joan Crawford, Gloria Swanson and Clara Bow, but will bring out the hidden Greta Garbo in every girl.

Dirty little secret for the Bride and her girls
Of course the fun part is designing your shirt and then finally wearing it out to the Bachelorette party, but there are a few other things I want to share with you. There are no minimums when it comes to creating and ordering your design. It doesn’t matter if the bridal party is made up of 3 girls or 10 girls. The prices are also very reasonable. A pink T with a cute saying can cost under $13.00 and a tank with writing on both the front and back of the item can cost less than $20. There are a variety of styles from short sleeve to long sleeve to tank tops…including shirts from everyone’s favorite brand, American Apparel! The possibilities are endless!
Whether it’s a day at the spa featuring a “me-shirt” that says “Bride’s Girls” or a sassy night in the city with a zip-hoodie that says “I’m with the Bride” on the front “….but still single and lovin’ it” on the back for the bridesmaids, your search ends here. I’ve made a few suggestions for you below, but I would be happy to create a shirt especially for your story!
