Regal Flower Girl Dress Collection
Orlando, FL – April 20, 2011 — The Royal Wedding nuptials of Prince William and Kate Middleton are a little more than a week away. So who are her young attendants? In the UK, young attendants are called bridesmaids whereas in the US, we call them flower girls. So what will they be wearing. It’s a wedding made in fairytale heaven, well at least for some of us. Marg Hyland, founder and head designer of Pegeen® which sells exclusively online as Pegeen.com, has just introduced some very unique designs as she has been doing for almost three (3) decades. This collection, however, includes flower girl dresses and ring bearers’ suits appropriate for any child attending or participating in a wedding planned for the most royal of occasions. For every bride who wants to feel like royalty on her special day: The Regal Collection . . . Inspired by Royalty.
Each dress is a totally new design especially for infants and children, made with fabrics such as duchess silk satin, custom made brocades, optional monogramming and other available customizations, feathers and jewels, damask and yards of imported French ribbon and tulle, with names reflecting designs appropriate to different periods in history such as Guinevere, Marie Antoinette, Elizabeth, Grace, Isabella, and even Bloody Mary (a beautiful red flower girl dress which will be perfect for weddings during the holidays). Hyland has introduced a total of ten (10) flower girl dresses, and has even provided two (2) perfect little boys’ period outfits: the James and the William. This collection is expected to quickly become one of Pegeen®‘s most in-demand lines of all time. And considering the current economy, the price is right. These period flower girl dresses start at only $300 and the boys’ outfits at $250.
