Weddings, Brides, Bridal Couture..........by Tattered Rose

Weddings aren't just for brides.....but pretty close!

Did you know that we sell our own wedding designs? Gorgeous lace, brocade, silk, crepe, industrial satin, and other fabrics, some of which are vintage? 

Don't expect a football field full of dresses covered in plastic, though. NO....we have a concise and very special collection of mostly hand made dresses, shrugs, skirts, shawls, hair pieces and bustiers.

For the individual woman who isn't into the mass-produced wedding dress thing. You know what you like and you have the romantic soul of someone who has lived before. You are a bit of a rebel and a dreamer.

Your wedding is going to be in a garden or perhaps a mountain...in the forest, a small church or at a cabin at the lake. You might not even wear shoes.....maybe just for the ceremony and then off they go!

It will be anything but tradtional. 

That's the kind of bride who comes to Tattered Rose for a dress or outfit for their special day.

P.S. Appointments outside of our normal hours are considered, as time allows.

The Victorian Walking Coat

In the world of clothing, there is nothing (aside from the corset) more feminine & reminiscent of the Victorian era than a shaped coat...with a fitted waist that flares out to the hemline.

In bordeaux and grey fleece for now...and a super lux black double knit coming soon.

We love Fall clothing at Tattered Rose and it has started trickling into the shop with much more to follow.

Stay tuned..........

Fall is falling in.

We got some new fleece coats in from Sympli the Best today and I wanted to see what they looked like on a person. 

So, when this lovely young lady was trying some things on.....I put 2 and 2 together and asked her try one on for me.

Then we spontaneously went outside to take a few pictures of her wearing the gorgeous bordeaux coat.

What fun! Thanks again F.

Transition.........

The "F" word.
FALL! It's just around the corner but no worries...Tattered Rose is still in summer mode....well, actually, transition mode. We have completed our store changeover but it is still filled with romantic clothing for any season.


It is fun to find new ways to dress for slightly cooler weather (coming soon) but still have one foot in summer, not willing to let go just yet.


Velvets are big this Fall.....just sayin'.
