Amsale Design Group

Amsale is amazing...a creative bridal gown designer. Amsale story was inspirational taking me back to my first love of bridal gowns. We share the same view regarding the bride's big day. THAT THE BRIDE TAKES CENTER STAGE. Designing bridal gowns at the age of 15...OK collecting fashion magazines (from salons and beauty school) like Vogue, Vanity Fair, and Brides. The goal at that time was to create a bride's dreams, and make some extra money (enough for a sandwich). As the youngest wedding advisor to sit on a hand picked board, I learned early on the bride takes center stage. I recall one wedding where the bride stocking ripped right before the wedding, and she became very nervous. The bridal gown (Teres McClen Couture) was a silk faced satin low cut fitted bodice with a calf high front and a hand stitched long train. The stockings would be seen as the bride entered the sanctuary. We (A like minded team) was determined to give the bride the day of her life. A lady walks up with white stockings. She was pulled aside and we explain the situation...we needed her stockings right away. OK it was a little out there, but the bride had a beautiful wedding! Yes, you ask how could Teres McClen Couture be at that time...actually it was a Design Studio from the living room floor, dining room table and kitchen counter top...cutting and sewing patterns. This story has a little of now & then...hope that's OK with you.
