Local designer Nicolas Villalba has launched a capsule collection in conjunction with Caneel Bay Resort’s 60th anniversary. The Texas native and the popular destination wedding and honeymoon spot in St. John, USVI have teamed up to present unique, custom gowns that are perfect for a special occasion at the resort. From the press release:
“The one-of-a-kind designs are inspired by the pristine natural setting and relaxed charm that has made the Laurance Rockefeller-founded resort the beachfront destination of choice for sophisticated travelers since 1956. Through the partnership, Villalba is also available to design custom resort couture gowns for Caneel Bay brides.”
Villalba’s collection offers up eight pieces including a sleeveless custom wedding gown of layered Georgette silk with 1,000 hand-folded petals (pictured); a Caribbean-inspired cocktail dress created from hand-painted silk (starting at $2,500); a silk charmeuse halter gown in soft ivory with a flowy skirt and custom belt hand-embellished with metallic threads and seed pearls (starting at $3,500); and a matelasse backless gown with a mini train and pearl button neck closure (starting at $4,500). Other designs include a maid of honor gown, sheath dress, and two beach dresses.
All of the pieces are custom made. The designer will meet with clients in his Dallas atelier. You can call 214-655-6820 to set up an appointment. To contact the resort to plan your wedding, call 340-776-6111.
