DASHWOOD ~Collection~ @ Vintage Fair!!!




Vintage Fair is ON and was packed all weekend! If you manage to get in don't forget to stop by the Dashwood ~Collection~ boutique there on the Retro Sim. Today's featured dress is "Audrey." This dress was inspired by the dress Audrey Hepburn wore in Breakfast at Tiffany's and features a similar back neckline. From there -- the dress takes a more modern turn. A short , flowy tulle ballerina skirt instead of a straight skirt- which adds just that touch of fun and flair. Who comes to SL to wear SIMPLE black dresses anyway -- So00, why not put a little PIZZAZZ in that "ol'LBD!" (little black dress) Perhaps an exposed zipper complete with pleats and stitching? Perhaps! This dress is reasonably priced at 175L , and will go with EVERYTHING in your wardrobe!
If you do stop by - be sure to pick up the FREE Gift -- brand new for VINTAGE FAIR!

A taste of Latin...... "Sophia"





Yet another amazing dress has been created By Dashwood for our collection.  This beautiful wedding dress will have you feeling like you should break into the merengue! It's sexy, it's chic,  it's flawless, it's jaw droppingly gorgeous!


The sheer lace bodice can be worn with or without the diamond panel.   It is strapless and fitted to show off the shoulders and waistline.  The skirt falls in tiered lace ruffles with a side slit to reveal just enough leg without giving too much away....  If so desired, the dress can be worn with a diamond belt that compliments the diamond panel in the bodice.  




This truly is a sensational dress.

"TORI" Blushing bride or Hot Gothic bride?

Well what can I say about the latest edition to our Wedding gowns ..... but wow!!!!!  This truly is a beautiful creation.  Whether you are a blushing bride or a hot gothic vampire bride, this is the dress for you.  The movement is flawless, the textures incredible. 
This is the first wedding gown within the Dashwood Collection to have a sculpted jewelled corset, but if bling is not quite your style, these jewels can be removed and the corset will look just as stunning. The textured lace-up back is hand drawn and the detail in the lace is exquisite.
It comes with a gorgeous satin overlay skirt and train that breaks to reveal a beautifully detailed full lace under skirt.  The rose detail comes in a choice of four colours - summer yellow, baby pink, blood red and winter white.
So what are you waiting for? Come and see inworld, demos available.  Matching roses for the hair and veil are also available in store.

Bridesmaid dress of the year! - Dashwood "Pippa" - New release


First I would like to introduce myself, I am Kalixta Ravenshaw and I have recently been appointed as the new Assistant Director for the House of Dashwood,  I am enthusiastic to be taking on this challenge working for such a vibrant and exciting fashion house!  Each week I will be letting you know about the latest additions and timeless classics to the Dashwood collection.  This week the dress in the limelight is the beautiful dress worn by the worlds favourite Royal Maid of honour, Pippa Middleton.  Dubbed "Her Royal Hotness" this dress is the ultimate of classic, sleek and simple elegance.

While staying as true to the original as possible,   the dress has the beautifully drawn buttons which gently run along the spine, down the back of the bodice dipping into the skirt. The Slim tailored  look of the original Barton dress is captured complete with cowl neckline, peek-a-boo lace, and finally, delicate cap sleeves. Our depiction of the dress comes with transparent prim lace to add to your shoulders enabling the textured cap sleeve a little extra movement! Our design also has the benefit of three skirt options, giving you the choice of a simple formal dress skirt, a fish tail style skirt or a flex prim skirt.  Just choose the style for for you!  Only one skirt should be worn at any one time, otherwise there will be a mess of floaty prims, and it wont be pretty! 

We are offering the dress in a number of colours,  white as worn traditionally by "Royal Maids of Honour" and also in delicate shades of pink or sage, sultry midnight, black onyx or beautiful berry.  This really is the "it" dress of bridesmaid dresses.

Please come and visit us in world and see this wonderful dress for yourself.

Gone Wild - Dashwood "Alaina" - NEW Release



I am very excited to release this latest dress in my collection. This dress is the answer to how to dress formal in the summer. It is exciting and has sooo much going on!... There is NOTHING boring about the new "Alaina" dress now available at Dashwood. The bodice of the dress is encrusted with sculpty jewels, as well as a rouched mid section which highlights the taffeta fabric texture. Working down the dress we see an explosion of prim skirt.... evoking a pickup bubble skirt this little mini can be worn without the back train if you desire. But why go sans train when that is the best part saved 'til last.... YES ... it's not your eyes deceiving you -- that is leopard print and zebra print peeking through. The back of the dress swishes and sways all around and the prints will just flurry around you... I know you will LOVE this dress... Go Ahead DARE to walk on the wild side! As of now this gown is available in Burgundy/leopard, Turq/zebra and bronze/leopard.
