This summer, Merci New York had the pleasure of styling the newest twobirds Bridesmaids campaign. We’ve been big fans of twobirds’ super-versatile and amazingly chic gowns for quite some time, so it was fun to work with owner Ariane Goldman and her team to attend to the props, flowers and fashion of the shoot.
We also worked with some of our favorite wedding biz friends… the photos came courtesy of the talented Trent Bailey Photography , and hair and make-up was expertly attended to by Facetime Beauty Concierge … and the dresses {as usual} looked gorg!
Here’s one of the winning shots {currently featured in the fall issue of Martha Stewart Weddings}.
A beautiful bridesmaid dress with an elegant, {swoon-worthy!} brooch.
The ladies in their bright pink twobirds dresses… I adored the tiered ombre gown Rashida {center} is wearing. It would be perfect for so many different occasions.
In addition to the fashion and prop styling, Merci dabbled in floral design {bet you didn’t know we could tackle that too!}. Here, some props paired with pretty blooms in galvanized tins made for a very versatile backdrop.
Don’t you just l.o.v.e. the color of these gowns? The shade looks beautiful on every skin tone, and there’s truly a cut {tie, twist or wrap} for every body type.
Ah… my favorite: Behind the scenes shots! Here Rashida shows off the gorgeous rosette silhouette, one of my personal favs! The fabric has a beautiful hand feel – it is so lush and chic.
Trent took some detail shots of the ladies and mise en scene. That brooch {I die!} paired with the versatile navy gown and feminine flowers is such a pretty look for a variety of weddings! {Oy. I may be only 5’3, but models make me feel super, super short!} Here I am making a quick fix to Rashida’s gown for the oh-so-pretty shot at the left.
So that’s a sneak peek at the campaign! Are you as in-love with these dresses as we are?
