LE CHATEAU’S THE WEDDING BOUTIQUE MEETS THE GOVERNOR GENERAL PERFORMING ARTS AWARDS #GGAWARDS

LE CHATEAU-9

LE CHATEAU-1

Perhaps one of the easiest and the hardest events to get dressed up for are formal black tie affair coupled with red carpet arrivals. Easy because you know exactly the proper dress code, it’s not casual business (what does that even mean?) or daytime cocktail (you mean a dress code for when you drink mimosas?). Difficult because you know the star magnitude of this event where every single from their grandmother to their pet chihuahua will be dressed to the nines!

LE CHATEAU’S THE WEDDING BOUTIQUE

Dubbed very chic-ly as Le Wedding, your resident mall fashion destination Le Chateau has now launched the awe-inspiring Wedding Boutique Collection, complete with dresses, outfits, suits, pants and blazers for the entire wedding party and the rest of the wedding guests! Aside from the bridesmaid’s, the Maid of Honour’s and the Mother of the Bride’s dress selections, there are in fact, several gorgeous options for… you got it, Bridal Gowns!

How cool and convenient is that to have a one-stop shop for all your wedding needs, right at a shopping mall? Le Chateau’s new #LeWedding / #StyleDowntheAisle collection is surely poised to become a big hit as, apart from the great style and quality of the pieces, you can’t beat the price!

WHAT TO WEAR TO THE GOVERNOR GENERAL PERFORMING ARTS AWARDS #GGAWARDS

Le Chateau’s regular collection of formal and cocktail dresses are still available and as a matter of fact, have gone even bigger and better. Along with a new store design concept, it feels very much like Springtime at Le Chateau these days and I couldn’t think of a better way to shop for a gala event like the GG Awards, where I get see the likes of former Prime Ministers, the Governor General himself and his beautiful wife, and of course, the Laureates like Sarah McLachlan, Atom Egoyan and Jean-Marc Valée get honoured for their craft!
