The Opera Collection 2009
The Opera Collection
The Gilles Montezin bridal collection pays homage to the art form of opera by bringing together a complex combination
of drama, sensuality, femininity and emotion; all of the characteristics found in the most beloved operatic productions.
Based on a design philosophy that focuses on the curvature of the female body, this collection also introduces Le Cinch™;
an abbreviated interpretation of the traditional corset that nearly doubles its predecessor’s figure-enhancing effects. With
Le Cinch™ the dresses are less confining and achieve the perfect hourglass silhouette with unprecedented comfort.
The fabrics of each dress are manipulated to produce textures and opulence rarely found in bridal attire. The romantic
silhouettes are designed to accentuate and celebrate the female form.
Keeping within the tradition of Gilles Montezin ready-to-wear, signature details for each dress include antique lace linings,
intricate hand stitching, elaborate construction and lush fabrics. Creative Director, Gilles Montezin believes everything
touching a woman’s body must be beautiful inside and out.
The collection is designed for the discerning, sophisticated bride and sensibly priced to accommodate a modest budget.
Dresses range from $4,000 to $7,000 retail. Sizes are available up to 18W. Larger sizes are available via special order.
