New bridal shop for curvy brides opening in Bray

-

A new bridal shop catering for curvy brides-to-be will open in Bray town on Friday, June 1.

Dreamy Curves Bridal Boutique will cater specifical­ly for curvy brides-to-be and mothers of the bride and groom, as well as bridesmaid­s of all sizes.

Dreamy Curves is being set up by Niki Donohoe, who identified a gap in the market for curvier ladies within the bridal market in Ireland. In a dramatic change of career, Niki, a financial account by profession, has invested hugely in this venture, following extensive research.

She said she is very excited to help brides-to-be find their dream dress.

‘Looking for and choosing your wedding dress should be one of the best parts of planning your wedding, but if you are a curvy bride-to-be, the reality can be quite different. Choice can be very limited and the experience of finding your special dress is what every bride deserves. I’ve chosen a range of bridal gowns and mother of the bride collection­s which are designed to flatter and provide support for those with curves. We promise all our customers a lovely, relaxed experience and lots of choice when they visit our beautiful new boutique.’

The shop is an appointmen­t-only service with each appointmen­t lasting around 90 minutes.

Dreamy Curves will stock around 65 unique bridal designs from Watters Wtoo, Romantica Silhouette, Sonsie by Veromia and Callista in sizes 16–32.

They will also offer a selection of bridesmaid dresses from sizes 6 up to size 32 from brands such as Watters, Jenny Packham, Dessy, Jenny Yoo, Alfred Sung, Lela Rose and Social Bridesmaid­s.

Nikki will stock a range of mother of the bride/ groom outfits from mid-August featuring designs by Veromia dress code, Anoola, Jomhoy, Gina Bacconi, Kirsten Krog and Ann Balon, which will include hats, shoes and fascinator­s matched to the range of dress colours and designs in store.

Dreamy Curves Bridal will be located in Marleigh House, 82/83 Main Street, Bray, and appointmen­ts can be booked online via www. dreamycurv­es.ie or by calling Niki Donohoe on 01 2765500 or 086 8075312.
