A Sad Death in the Wedding Industry<\/h1>\n

Amsale Aberra passed away on the 1st of April, 2018<\/h2>\n

This week the bridal world mourns the passing of one of the most amazing designers in the industry, Amsale Aberra<\/a>. Her work and passion was simplicity, beauty, and refinement which showed in all of her designs.<\/p>\n

\"Image<\/p>\n

Amsale<\/a> was born Ethiopia and moved to the States to get her degree in fashion. She noticed a need for simple and elegant gowns when she got married. Because of this gap in the industry, she started out making gowns in her apartment, and growing to sell to Kleinfeld’s<\/a>. Now her beautiful designs have landed all the way here in Utah and beyond!<\/p>\n

Her outlook on fashion and style was one of a kind:<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe that true style
\nknows no place or time \u2013
\nmore than an aesthetic,
\nSTYLE<\/strong>\u00a0is a way of living\u201d<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Her legacy will continue with her successor,\u00a0 Margo Lafontaine, who will showcase her 2019 line.<\/p>\n

We have been so lucky to have her as one of our exclusive designers. This tribute to her legacy and her amazing talent for elegant simplicity was inspired and drawn from Vogue<\/a>. To learn more about Amsale<\/a> check out her website<\/a> and collection. If you want to try her Nouvelle Amsale line<\/a>, give us a call<\/a> or book online<\/a> to schedule an appointment.<\/p>\n
