Christine Cornwell sent us some beautiful images for our Pegeen Tween Style 934. This dress comes in 200+ pure silk color combinations with either silver or gold tulle interspersed throughout the skirt.
So, today I woke up to these beautiful images by Christine Cornwell Photography of some of our newest Jr. Bridesmaids, Quinceanera Dresses and Bat Mitzvah Dresses from the Pegeen Tween Collection. This style is 934 and is available with almost any color of sequins you could possible think of!! Naturally, you can choose any color of tulle as well and the glitter tulle is either silver or gold on a white or ivory background.
This week, we are featuring a really nice dress which was used for a recent Bat Mitzvah. The dress, from our Pegeen Tween Collection, style 933 has tons of layers of handkerchief tulle in multiple shades of hot pink and bubble gum and topped off with a bodice with pink sequins. Although the dress here is shown in pink, it comes in 200+ colors and multiple colors of sequined bodice including “pink liquid quartz”. Sizes start in size 6 (its a rather heavy dress) through plus size and can be made with long sleeves as well as short sleeves or sleeveless at the same price.
We just received these images from Christine Cornwell, this marvelous photographer in KY who loves to travel to weddings. Here is the shoot but I can’t help but ask you to visit her blog as well filled with eye candy!! Hot Pink tulle flower girl dresses – Photography by Chris Cornwell from Pegeen Couture style 402
One of the most satisfying things we stand behind at Pegeen.com is that we guarantee the fit. We work very hard to make sure that a girl who may be looking for a Plus Size First Communion dress, and who is difficult to fit, looks just a beautiful than the next girl waiting to receive her First Communion. We think it’s so sad that some of these girls go shopping and come across some really unscrupulous sales attendants. One of the worst stories I have heard was that a young girl went into a large, box mart sized bridal store, after visiting at least 5 others without success, and the sales clerk said to the girl’s mother, of course in front of her, “OH we don’t fit girls like her. Maybe we should get a women’s dress off the rack and see if we can cut it down”. URGH. That woman should have been fired on the spot but I hear those are common comments in many stores.
There are a few styles that work REALLY well. One I personally like is the style below because fabric we use has pin-tucks which helps to slenderize the look. I usually dn’t recommend lots of skirt fluff – like many layers of tulle or organza. One layer of tulle looks quite awful but we think this body type is fine with single layers of organza. And, don’t be fulled by these crappy dresses coming from China for goodness sake. If I could show you the heart break from these moms who call us in tears, I would if that would help convince you.
Just a reminder – although we sell exclusively online, if you are visiting Orlando, we are located just 1.25 miles from Disney World. Call to visit our factory or design studio. 407-928-2377

Call us. We will treat your plus sized girl with the dignity you all deserve.
For PLUS SIZES we will send a Bodice in the mail which is made out of a muslin material. You will try on this pattern/muslin and get back to us with any further fit issues. Be sure to have a digital camera ready when it arrives. After the fit is finalized, we use our copy of the same muslin here and proceed to make your dress. “My staff and I are really good at spotting the problems. Once the digital pictures are sent back to us experience and a little programming magic, produces the changes that need to be made to the pattern. I really scare my kids sometimes when talking on the phone to customers. After they give me the measurements and height, I usually guess their weight within a pound or two. It amazes my kids but reassures the customer that we know what we are doing! I was especially happy when a recent customer said to me ‘ITS LIKE MAGIC IN A BOX’ and that pretty much says it right there.”
Photoshoot by Christine Cornwell – Aqua & Pink Flower Girl Dresses
We just love Christine Cornwell’s photography, (ChrisCornwellBlog.com). We met her last year at my sister’s son and daughter in law’s wedding, in fact the wedding and photgraphy was so wonderful that we named that our 2015 Wedding of the Year. Christine is the most adorable yet hard working photographer that I had ever had the pleasure to work with in quite some time. Recently, the wedding was featured in Jan/Feb 2016 Bridal Guide and we were honored to be featured as well. So, when Chris said she just had to do a shoot we obliged because we love her work! Chris hails from Kentucky but shoots around the world.
