What is a Trunk Show?



Trunk Shows are a practice by which wedding designers get to display collections in their entirety at local boutiques. The name of this event is derived from the fact that all of the gowns travel from the designer to boutique.



Why attend a Trunk Show?

Often times bridal boutiques will carry a few select gowns from one designer. This is an excellent chance to see the entire collection of your favorite designer. If you have your eye set on a specific dress and are dying to try it out, going to that designer’s trunk show is the best opportunity for you to catch your perfect dress. Also, salons offer considerable discounts if you happen to purchase a dress on a Trunk Show day.



What to expect?

You must book an appointment to partake in trunk shows. Usually this is done over the phone or on the salon’s website. When you arrive the shopping experiences will essentially be the same, yet you will get access to an entire section dedicated to the designer of the trunk show. It is important to know that these events are quite popular, so booking an appointment is much recommended.
