Red & Gold Christmas?

What a great month is December! 

After two dark winter months, hopefully we will get a  snow white month with lots of parties, Christmas drinks, dinners and galas! Ugg's will be exchanged for high heels and warm sweaters for beautiful shiny cocktaildresses and evening gowns.
 

In addition to the still expanding collection, MirreMirre purchased especially for Christmas some wonderful red and gold dresses. Red & gold dresses from Karen Millen, Diane von Furstenberg, Allen Schwartz, Yaya Aflalo (the dress that Heidi Klum is wearing) and Max Azria.
 

Stop by at MirreMirre and shine during the holidays in a beautiful dress! 
Below is a preview of the dresses from the new MirreMirre collection.



 






Opera Nabucco

Sunday, November 28th, the Concert Hall in Amsterdam was completely sold-out for the opera Nabucco by Verdi. The Amsterdam Opera Choir performed this opera to celebrate their 60th anniversary. A great choir singing with eight international soloists and the soprano wearing a MirreMirre dress!

Saturday night I was at a party when I received a panic phonecall from the Amsterdam Opera Choir. The soprano, who had to act the next day, had fallen ill ...By coincidence they found a German soprano who was in Amsterdam and able to sing Nabucco, though, her wardrobe consisted of nothing more than jeans ...
 

Sunday morning the soprano, called Claudia Iten, came along for a dress. I was previously told what her size was so we could start the fitting right away. It had to be very appropiate, not too tight, not too dull, no black and not too sexy...After trying on several dresses she chose a long red dress with a beautiful neckline and a skirt with lots of fabric that moved along nicely.

Sadly, no pictures were taken in the Concert Hall but she was wearing this dress from BCBG Max Azria in red.
