At the Fall Bridal Market in NYC, Kate had the pleasure to meet Miami dress designer, Jorge Manuel, and view the amazing dresses from his 2011 Nebula collection — a collection inspired by the stars. Instantly, there was love for his twist on the traditional gown.
“For centuries, people have marveled in awe at the starts in the night sky. Some have mapped the stars for direction in navigation. Many others used stars and the patterns they made across the sky to tell stories, oral traditions that would be passed down through generations. Still, others looked to the stars for inspiration or simply to make a wish.”
As you explore the collection, each dress is hand-crafted and designed with purpose to reflect the essence of each constellation and we were honored to take a personal look into the gowns as we hosted a photo shoot at the shop of Gus & Ruby Letterpress in downtown Portsmouth, which was in collaboration with Seacoast Bride Magazine.
Below is just a glimpse into the premiere of Jorge Manuel Garcia’s 2011 collection featured in the 2011 issue of Seacoast Bride! Oh, and we certainly want to thank Gus & Ruby for letting us use their space for the day and another thanks to Hair that Moves and Joya Beauty for hair and makeup!
Yes, the model on the left is Samantha of Gus & Ruby — looking fab!
