With all the pomp, circumstance and ceremony fit for a proper Royal Wedding Party, White Stole did what it always does to celebrate Romantic Milestones by bringing together the chicest of Seattle models’ silhouettes with the luxe of silk, satin, lace and fine china, from old to new, to capture the times we live in.   

No matter the era, the best Couture Creations, and the gifted Photographers who have captured their allure, have always layered multiple elements and meanings into their work.  To that end, White Stole’s luxurious photoshoot brought their Creative Universe to celebrate the time-honored Bridal Rehearsal Dinner in the most Royal-fashioned way – with a high-fashion Tea Party!  

This modern twist on the traditional Bridal Rehearsal Dinner was the brainchild of Stylist, Curator and Producer Roberta Nasser and her White Stole Couture Collection as a Bridal Tea Party happening set in the old-world elegance of the Mayflower Park Hotel in Seattle, Washington on March 11, 2018 in anticipation of the upcoming Royal Wedding between an American woman, Meghan Markle, and a British gentleman, Prince Harry.  

The vision created of Couture Wedding and Evening Luxe in which each woman’s ensemble is, in and of itself, a
representation of popular Wedding and Evening Themes from:
Floral Garden and Romantic, to Vintage, Retro, Whimsical, Eco Conscious and Modern Urban Chic to Evening Glam.

​Being high-season around the world again for a Royal Wedding, White Stole created this collaborative event to span both the fashion and the wedding industries in Seattle, WA, taking a fresh look at this theme from a truly 'American' and 'Seattle' viewpoint.

Over the millennium, Fashionistas have asked: What is that Je ne sais quoi that fashionable ‘It Girls’ have that the rest of us admire and try to make our own? 
 
Whether it’s an Evening Dress, a Little Black Dress, or Pencil Skirt, there’s just something CHIC about a cultivated look that tops it all off with the perfect Statement Accessory piece.   
 
Whereas layering several Statement Pieces onto one outfit is itself a ‘look,’ fashion deftness is what brings forward the Haute Look and keeps us away from the ‘Sin of Overdressing.’
 
Taking a lesson from these photos of stylish European Women seen on the streets of Paris this year, we can see just how elusive a sexy look can be.  But try to master it, we must! 
 
In an effort to distill the essence of the perfect Haute Look for Wedding, Evening, Day, or StreetWear in all its effortless yet refined history, let’s start with what we know truly, always and forever works:
 
 #1 – Choosing Gowns, Dresses and corresponding Wrap Accessories which are more ‘Body-Skimming’ and less ‘Body-Revealing.’  Keeping our focus on our ‘Silhouette’ will bring forward results that are ultimately more sensual and sympathetic to the differing sizes, shapes and ages that we bring to either our Street Wear or our Wedding Party.
 
#2 – Paying strict attention to our Wardrobe Coordinates, we allow our Accessories to float on a solid canvas that blends our look together.  Whether it’s topping our Blue Gown with an Embroidered Beige Silk Stole Wrap with diamond earrings and wristlet, wrapping a Black Silk Shawl Wrap over a Black and white Evening Dress on the way to the Theatre, embracing our shoulders with a Silver Lilac Shawl Wrap over a Little Black Dress for an Evening Dinner event, out On-the-Town during Paris Fashion Week in a Lace Evening Dress and White Vintage Fur Stole Cape around our shoulders, tying a Pastel Blue Gray Silk Stole Wrap around our neck over a Floral Day Dress on a shopping trip, or jetting off to the Monet Museum with a Silk Foulard Wrap tied at our neck, our goal is to unify all elements into a seamless whole.
 
#3 – Without question we ‘Go-For-The-Flow’ in our ensemble.  Nothing starched or stiff will do – and that goes for hair as well.  A simple twisted chignon pulled off the face, pinned or sleek looks romantic against the highlights of either an Embroidered or Floral Graphic, Silk Satin or Silk Chiffon Stole wrapped around our natural looks that we meld together for a natural glow.
 
#4 - We strive to 'delight' those who behold us!  While some of us hold firmly to the belief in neutral monotones in our Gowns and Dresses, we nonetheless uphold the truth that every Chic French or Italian Woman knows is essential:  the One Flirty Item.  Of course, lovers of White Stole know that One Silk Stole or Shawl Wrap – whether floral, graphic, embroidered or embellished with our black eyeliner and heels will steal the day for us!
 
#5 – In our hearts and minds we know that nothing cheap will satisfy us.  We are prepared to INVEST for the long haul in a Couture Silk Stole, Scarf or Foulard Classic Wrap that will act as a cornerstone in our wardrobe throughout the years to come.  And exist as the Perfect Accessory no matter at what age we wear it.  We are passionate about keeping our Luxe Silk Stole Wrap Accessory in immaculate condition to allow us to wear and treasure it for life…and simply change our clothes around it!
 
#6 – We don’t hesitate to BE BOLD.  Whereas this thinking begins with our lingerie and lace stockings under our well-cut basics cut to flatter our bodies, it ends with eccentric touches in our Luxe Accessory.  Since our goal is to find what we love and make it our ‘Signature,’ we choose our Silk Stole or Shawl Wrap piece for ourselves or those in our entourage to take pleasure in ‘being a woman’ in love with…herself!
 
#7 – We eliminate too much of anything that will take the spotlight off our glowing Silhouette...whether that be clashing colors, blush or lipstick, too much gloss, too much hairspray, too many baubles, too many ruffles, or too many bouquets!
 
#8 – Above all, we Bedazzle.  Our goal is to allow our One Perfectly Stunning Wrap Accessory to steal the show!

Remember your SUMMER OF LOVE in the flowing, fearless drape of a colorful Floral Silk Stole Wrap on your Wedding Day….without guilt!
 
In today’s era, Bridesmaids' gowns are invariably shorter and chosen in go-with-everything shades of lilac, mint green, beige or black so your Bridal Party can use them as Street-Wear after the wedding.
 
But rather than invite your Arm Candy to the party to function as a “backdrop,” White Stole ravishly suggests that you elevate your closest girlfriends to the level of wearable Floral Arrangements to flaunt your assets!
 
Whether your bridal beauties wear the floral 'Fabiola' or the 'Flores' Couture Silk Satin Stole Wrap to your Garden, Veranda or Country Wedding, or they each wear a different color of Couture Embroidered Lace Silk Stole Wrap like those in White Stole's “Sophisticated Evening Lace” Collection, the notion that the colors of your Wedding Theme are reflected in the color of the Stole Wraps that embrace you will carry your Wedding Day into the aura of Good Omen with surreal flourish!
 
And whether you and your ladies prefer red, French rose or sky blue silk, White Stole has the Stole, Shawl or Foulard Wrap whose colors can be used to create a dainty bouquet for your Bridal Beauties…a massive Bridal Bouquet for yourself… and serve as the color palate for your entire Wedding Ceremony and Reception. 

Reclaim your First Embrace!  Whether your Bridal Attendants are wearing a strapless, mini, or a flowing maxi dress, let your Ladies’ true beauty shine for you at your event as they cover bare shoulders at the chapel, or reveal them throughout the day - while together you and your entourage bring excitement to your Wedding Day!
 
The secret to a perfect Summer Wedding is always a little OOMPH, splash, sparkle and glamour in your overall Wedding Theme and Bridal Attire. The main attraction, the Bride, dressed in colors symbolic of her most perfect beauty, and her Ladies-In-Waiting are surrounding her in a way symbolic of romantic love.   
 
By embracing you and yours with Couture Floral Silk Stoles, White Stole ​wishes you the Summer Wedding Day of Stole Love!

Did you know that the fashion industry is the second largest polluter in the world, next to oil?  Never fear, because by buying from White Stole you’re doing something good for the planet!  Allow us to explain our enthusiasm…
 
White Stole was born to help our savvy Brides, Bridesmaids, Mothers-of-the Bride and Wedding Guests and Luxury Goods Lovers alike contribute to the decline in the demand and production of “fast-fashion” items by buying high-quality when others are buying low.
 
Although most people assume that most of what they wear is natural fiber clothing, this is far from the truth.  On top of how the fiber was grown and produced to create the fabric, how the fiber was processed, dyed and finished must be considered. 
 
Conventional manufacturing processes rely heavily on chemicals to clean and bleach fibers to prepare for spinning, weaving, knitting or dying - often with heavy metals and large amounts of water to flush and clean fabrics all the way up to and including the final finishing step in the garment process.  The facts regarding production of new materials also make vintage, recycled, reclaimed and surplus fabric arguably sustainable choices, as the raw materials require no agriculture and no further manufacturing to produce. 
 
Of utmost importance at White Stole is the fact that “Natural” fiber clothing refers to clothing made from fiber found in nature, such as the vegetable fibers of Cotton, Hemp, Linen and Flax; the protein fibers such as Wool, Alpaca and Cashmere; and the elastic fibrous secretions of silkworm larvae in cocoons used to create Silk. 
 
Each of the amazing natural fabrics in the White Stole Collection, irrespective of their distinct production and processing methods, nevertheless take them worlds-away from the man-made, artificially-created synthetic fibers which are chemically and structurally altered to the extent that they are toxic to both the person wearing them as well as to the planet.
 
For instance, despite the fact that all Cotton has a large carbon footprint for its cultivation and highly chemically treated production, Organic Cotton is considered a more sustainable choice for fabric because it is completely free of destructive toxic pesticides and chemical fertilizers.  And while many designers have begun experimenting with Bamboo fiber which absorbs greenhouse gases during its life cycle and grows quickly and plentifully without pesticides, Bamboo fabric can cause environmental harm in production due to the chemicals used to create a soft viscose from hard bamboo.  Some believe Hemp is one of the best choices for eco fabrics due to its ease of growth, though it remains illegal to grow in some countries.  
 
Most relevant and adored in the eyes of followers of White Stole, Silk, the “Queen of Fiber” and cherished by couture lovers the planet over, is the fact that there are multiple ways to grow and harvest secretions from the natural larvae – from wild to ancient methods that date back to the Ancient Chinese and the Roman Empire to more eco-friendly methods today. 

Whether choosing one continuous silk thread that has been dried, brushed and reeled around a spool to form one silk “raw” thread with its exceptional ability to absorb dye  - or silk salvaged and harvested from a cocoon in smaller strands then spun or woven in ways similar to cotton or hemp to allow more silkworms to survive - Real Silk holds the remarkably different feel and visible glossy luster, natural amber glow, texture, durability, natural stain-resistance, and high-quality look to the knowing designer and consumer of fine fabric. 

As with all natural fibers, Silk fashion is a blending of compromises.  Whether the silk is hand-loomed in rural India by ancient artisan weavers or pure-dyed with mild-acid, environmentally low-impact fiber reactive dyes in a modern Italian cottage-industry factory using an age-old creation process as in the goods presented in the White Stole Collection, the raising of silkworms is, by its very nature, sustainable.   And Silk is biodegradable! 

Silk fabric when produced by weavers on handlooms has a near zero energy footprint, while silk produced by powerloomed textile factories are evaluated on a company-basis to determine sustainability.  The environmentally- focused createurs are the suppliers White Stole has built their business upon.

White Stole exists to offer Luxury Couture created with the highest-quality and integrity, as well as sustainable and ethical standards in the handmade tradition that has built the reputation of respect and admiration the Italian Silk Industry holds to this day.  

In essence, it’s a double bottom line — buying from White Stole you are doing your small part to create a cleaner environment by choosing “Pure” Silk fabric that is already produced, dyed and finished in an organic, low-impact environment while being the chicest of Planet-Lovers!

Join White Stole in making great strides toward a more sustainable fashion industry with “Pure” Silk and Vintage Wraps!

When it comes to Wedding Gift Protocol, White Stole is a big fan of Bridal Registries for how they simplify gift-hunting for family members of the bridal party, often eliminating duplicate gifts, but also serving as an easy way to direct Wedding Guests to their end-goal of the perfect Wedding Gift. 

However, we have definitely entered a New Era of Weddings!  Now, in our most modern and free Wedding Culture, you have permission to choose your own gift.  Yes, you do!  And often the most memorable gifts are those that guests select themselves.

The truth is, choosing gifts from the registry isn’t good enough for many people these days - especially for those people closest to the Bride who want to get her something extra special and personal.  Close friends want to signal that they know something about, or have a special relationship with their Bride, and thus want to choose something more special than those who buy from the Registry.  Close girlfriends are less likely to buy things her Bride needs from the Registry, and instead opt for presenting her with something she may secretly desire.

Consequently, with utter enthusiasm, White Stole is here to help you bring something inspiring to the Bride and her Wedding Party!   And to boost your gift-giving motivation, take a sneak peak at a recent photoshoot of White Stole’s Curator and Stylist sporting a dazzling Silk Stole from the White Stole Gift Collection!

We recommend that you go with the style you know your Bride to have, complementing her style, OR, for max fun splurging on a Luxe, Couture and FABULOUS Silk Stole Wrap in an unexpected color or design,  Your personal “Wedding Wishlist-for-your-Best-Girlfriend” is what she will adore!

And YES!….you do need to send a gift to a wedding you can’t attend.  And if your Bride is a close friend of family member, yes!, it is good etiquette to give her a Wedding Gift for her second wedding.  Ideally you should send it to your Bride ahead of time in the event she wants to incorporate it into her Photoshoot, Honeymoon, or Wedding Day plans. 

And YES!...it is really tacky to just give cash even if many couples wouldn’t be offended.   So go ahead, take a risk and give the kind of luxury that will warm her heart…and shoulders!

At White Stole’s pricing you needn’t feel “too generous” because our Direct-to-You pricing brings Couture to you at its most affordable - but we do encourage you to splurge on your special lady!

White Stole’s influential Italian Luxury Couture Silk Wrap design and production of printed, solid and yarn-dyed luxury Women's Wraps in silk or cashmere use the traditional, heritage-based hand-dyed and silk-screened custom-manufacturing process that has long been used by our manufacturing companies in Como, Italy since 1945. The meticulous workmanship of our Silk Stoles are guaranteed to last a lifetime with proper care. 

Whether you are having or attending a Country, Garden, City Chapel, Island Resort, Beach Wedding, or Gala Event,  if you are in need of a Luxe Bauble  for yourself, or that will serve as a ‘Thank You’ or ‘Adore You’ Gift for your Bride or Bridesmaids, look no further than the luxury-approved curation White Stole has spent hours putting together.    

The unexpected sets of Italian hand silk-screened, inspired colors and designs in White Stole's Silk "Gift" Stole and Shawl Wrap Accessories Collection  will rock any bride and her guests past the ceremony and on into her lifetime.  We have picked the perfect designs that will be cherished - and used -forever!

Without question, if you are planning an “Urban or Country Vintage Wedding in Spring or Summer” anywhere, White Stole’s Stylists suggest you not try to “blend-in” to your scene carrying a tiny bouquet that you toss at the end of the day.
 
Rather, we’d wish upon your silhouette that it be wrapped in a beautiful, artully-designed Couture Silk Stole that will emblazon, delight and carry the rapture of your Wedding Theme into your day’s festivities….and beyond into your life ahead!

As Wedding Season is upon us, chances are you are invited to a Spring or Summer Wedding with a glamorous reception being held in a Classic City, Yacht or Country Club setting that is perfect for channeling spring's graphic trend.

To help you focus on celebrating the clear skies in your future, White Stole suggests your inspiration begin with a sky blue and white palette that keeps the pattern focused to one piece - in this case the statement Silk Stole worn by you and your Bridesmaids. 

It is true that at most high-end shops, evening wear and luxury couture come with rather hefty price tags.  Nevertheless, though the entire ensemble may be outside of your budget, Accessory Pieces are typically inside that arch.  To the Style-Conscious, the best Accessories have somewhat of a primordial quality – lending a sense that you have captured a bit of the life you have secretly desired from the beginning of your time.  With just a wisp or sheerest layer of silk or fur, you can convey the sense of delicacy or power you feel.

‘To express oneself and how one wishes to be to the world isn’t much different than how an artist views a figure or landscape’ a biographer of Helena Rubinstein once said.

White Stole is a big supporter of the view that how a woman chooses to craft her look and construct her identity is chiefly accomplished with the fashion and accessories she adopts. 

And more importantly, that on the most important day of her life, challenging some norms – such as those surrounding weddings – simply are in order!  Our Brides know that her own beauty is in her eyes as she beholds herself at it’s deepest essence.  And expressing that self means not stepping into someone else’s fairybook Princess Wedding Story….but into her own! 

May we humbly suggest that one of the most perfect ways to cultivate your inner feminine-self is with the soft, flowing look of pure Silk Chiffon in Couture Silk Floral Stole Wraps!

White Stole’s "Charming Rose" Bridal Wrap in Pink or Lilac from the Signature Valentino Collection offers you a sheer cascading rose design that not only wraps your future in a floral embrace, but gives a perfectly flowing Heirloom Gift for the Bride and Bridesmaids who know how to put the fun into elegance for a lifetime in any season  from Spring to Summer!
 
Delicately highlight your bridal party's silhouette with a rainbow of pastel shades from lavender and lilac, or pale pink to coral in any Spring or Summer, Garden Wedding setting or season while giving yourself a pure Silk Momento of your Wedding Day that you will cherish forever.

The women White Stole loves to love have a deep desire to have, hold and “wear her accessories for life"….then see them end-up in the hands of her daughter, her favorite nieces or cousins, or even a fashionable second-hand store where Style-Savvy young girls or Budget-Minded women will discover them 20 years later.

We might all agree that everyone wants, at minimum, a graceful wedding – no matter how informal or unorthodox the elegance is portrayed.  Yet, when it comes right down to the planning stage, a secret wish in-your-deepest-heart-of-hearts to fly-off and bring your dream of a Beach or Island Wedding true makes you shiver with fear! 
 
The very thought of what flight, resort and menu rates might cost, who would want to travel to the big day, not to mention the challenge of how to pack for such a major life event that would mix formality with pure vacation bliss might cause you to toss it off for good….until you pour yourself a cool drink and envision it to be a Pina Colada on Turks and Caicos!  Clearly, it’s time to get to work weighing it all out….with the help of White Stole!
 
Let’s consider that by now you’ve gotten your grip, called around and found a Wedding Planner you bond with, and have gotten several destinations and their related costs all lined-up to compare.  What remains is the Prime Question:     
 
“What wardrobe to pack for a smart, stylish, wedding-appropriate Island Resort Wedding that will fit into one piece of luggage and one carry-on bag!?
​
White Stole humbly suggests first, that you consider a sheer, flowing Maxi Dress in silk – preferably in the weaves of chiffon, satin, organza or charmeuse - to defray the cost of a traditional Wedding Gown.  This silk canvas will lay the perfect foundation for your key Accessory staple:  A Bright Floral or Graphic Silk Chiffon or Silk Satin Stole Wrap that can double as a cover-up if the sun gets too hot, or the ocean breezes too cool….either at the ocean side ceremony, or under the shade of the reception canopy.  White Stole is quick to point out that our largest “Shawl” size offers the most voluminous touch of silk.  Mix-in a perfectly flat, crystal-encrusted sandal along with drop earrings….and you’ve got Ocean Wedding ecstasy!
 
The inherent nature of a gorgeous Silk Stole  for your Beach, Resort, or Island Wedding is that a cover-up Shawl or Stole Wrap is the perfect Beach Accessory, acting as a Sarong, Pareo or Bandeau cover-up over a bikini, as a breeze-chaser at Brunch or as an extra layer in the evening the next day, and can double-up as a cozy Scarf on the plane ride home. 
 
That’s 5 great reasons to purchase a Silk Shawl or Stole Wrap for your Island Wedding…and we’re just getting started!

 White Stole has become the go-to for Indie Brides looking for One-of-a-Kind Vintage, Silk Satin, Lace or Tulle Wraps and Cover-Ups.  Especially now, as the look of the moment is short and glammy with a certain Alt-Rock sensibility inspired by the 90’s!

Warmer days bring strapless Bridal Gown Styling…and a perfect opportunity for you to think about flirty, around-the-shoulder silhouettes and Statement Accessories for instant Chic at an Evening Wedding in the City.  Style “topped” with…. an Evening Wrap!

Our Seattle Bride infuses her signature Je Ne Sais Quoi style into her glamorous look with a simple-but-chic, lightweight Silk Stole cover-up as sunset winds down into moonlight. A long Stole - many inches longer and wider than a typical scarf - is the workhorse of the accessories world.  Use it to shield your décolletage from the sun during the day, to bring your most seductive mood into your photoshoot, and as that extra layer when the sun fades into evening moonlight.

If you're attending a City Wedding this summer or just planning on taking an urban Night-Out-On-The-Town, a Silk Stole from White Stole is the key piece you need to look stylish and be prepared for the temperature all weekend long - without over-packing.  And, Have-And-Hold as a Momento forever-after!

Whether traveling to a Destination Wedding across town, across state or across-country, heavy luggage really isn’t necessary.  Packing a few versatile pieces you can wear multiple times is the difference between going In Style…and going without!

A 1940’s depression-era Bride may have worn her Sunday best suit with a military air to be married at the Courthouse, or perhaps made herself a simple off-white, ivory or beige dress she designed from furnishing fabrics with Gibson or mutton sleeves that billowed at the top and tapered to fit below the elbow.  She may have made her Veil, too, from lace curtains worn on top of swept-up hair, and carried a flower bouquet made from paper due to war-time rationing.  
A wealthier '40’s Bride may have danced the Jitterbug at her wedding to the sounds of a Big Band in a borrowed  Wedding Gown that featured netting or the hint of the first “sweetheart” shaped neckline and corseted waist made of rayon, or sometimes silk.  But as the era turned the corner to the 1950’s, the influence of Christian Dior’s “New Look” hour-glass dress with it’s flowing skirts made of yards of cloth set the stage for Bridal Wear. 

The '50’s Brides are seen encircled in lace or cutwork, overskirts and puffed sleeves, and yards of transparent gauze or satin inspired by the billowing, luxe skirt, tight-waist and barely visible “sweetheart neckline” of the gown that Grace Kelly wore in 1956 to wed Prince Rainier of Monaco, or by Elizabeth Taylor’s hour-glass Wedding Gown. 

The lifting of rationing on fabric allowed women to celebrate their figures with hoop skirts, crinolines and other full-skirt techniques to emphasize the waist and “pointed bosom” bodice.  French lace was the rage as post-war lace began to be manufactured again, bringing back tiers of Chantilly Lace and flouncy frills to the skirts of Wedding Gowns.

Audrey Hepburn equally influenced Bridal Wear in 1954 with her “Modern Princess” look in a ballerina Tea-Length Lace Wedding Dress with sleeves and few embellishments.  Gloves became the standard fashion of the '50s, with fingerless bridal gloves made of tulle, lace, or satin.  Shorter, flutter hemlines led to shorter veils and many gowns were designed with layered materials, three-quarter or long sleeves, upstanding gothic style collars, or to be worn as strapless evening gowns after the wedding. 

Coordinating flowing or opaque Stoles or Lace Boleros worn on top of a strapless dress for coverage at the wedding became popular at the end of the decade as dress lengths moved from floor-length to ankle-length, and dropped hemlines and scooped necklines appeared. 

The 1950's was a decade defined by decorum, elegance, and etiquette. Traditional, classic wedding receptions featured Wedgewood china, white roses, cut glass, and silver on damask cloths.  Wedding cakes, often displayed under a floral arch, were styled with popular motifs from the era, like poodles.
