Brides Up North met the gorgeous Michelle from the equally gorgeous (not to mention innovative) twobirds Bridesmaid at the National Wedding Show at the Birmingham this spring. Like any wedding blogger would, I oohed and ahhed over her beautiful and clever dresses and she promised to send me some information to share with my readers. Check this out Brides Up North…

Delighted Bridesmaids

I hope you are paying attention Brides Up North! With a growing number of stockists up our way, you are going to want to listen up! This is no gimmick. I have seen these beauties up close and they are to. die. for.

Michelle tells us more: Inspired by a 1970’s Norma Kamali ‘Infinity’ dress, the innovative twobirds dress is the ultimate fashion statement. Made from a luxurious jersey blend the dress is infinitely versatile and suits all shapes (yes, it is all the SAME dress). The design is classically stylish, timeless and can be worn differently over and over again well after the wedding, effectively killing two birds with one dress!

The brilliance of this design lies within the ingenious bodice straps that can be tied, twisted, knotted and folded to create a range of necklines from v-neck or strapless to capped sleeve. Bridesmaids can wrap it in any of the 15 ways, flattering their own figures and individual tastes while enabling brides to have the consistency they seek for the bridal party. Plus, their stretchy bandeaus are perfect for bridesmaids who’d like a little more coverage and bust support, making the styling process that much easier.

The dresses come in a range of nineteen cat walk inspired colours, from the muted pastel shades of Coral, Jasmine and Putty, vintage tones of Rosewater and Dusty Pink to more saturated hues like Windsor Navy and Cabernet Red.
.
.
Dresses are available in four different lengths and start at £205 for the classic collection. Check out the beautiful rosette collection, available in six colours, for a little extra something.
.
The best part, especially for those in a time crunch: The dresses come in just two sizes (4-18 and 20-26) and won’t require any alterations.
.

The dress is incredibly simple to style, but helpful twobirds has designed an iPhone app with short video tutorials to help you on your way. So when the time comes, there’ll be no hiccups with your bridesmaids’ dresses and you can focus on what’s really important: enjoying your big day. The videos can also be found on the website as can step by step sketches of each style.

As well as their London base in the UK, twobirds is now stocking a select number of bridal boutiques with the number growing each month. Check out the twobirds website for a list of stockists in the UK and Ireland. If you don’t have a stockist in your area, fear not, twobirds operates a handy sample programme. For the small sum of £25 they will send a dress to you to have for seven days for your wedding party to try on before you buy.

Plans are also afoot for appointment weekends to take place in cities that do not yet have a stockist – keep en eye on the homepage of their website for details or email uk@twobirdsbridesmaid.com

Wonder dress. That’s all I’m saying!
