With Formal season approaching in the Autumn Encore will also be stocking a number of formal/bridesmaid dresses by Jora Collection, Sacha James and Jim Hjelm as well as pre-loved gowns from former Miss Northern Irelands’ Zoe Salmon and Lori Moore.
Bernadette McGuinness from Encore Boutique said, “We are delighted to be hosting a ‘pop up’ shop in Buttercrane Shopping Centre. The stock available is absolutely stunning and we can’t wait to see what customers think of the selection and the prices. Encore is a not for profit concession boutique so all profits including those from brand new bridal gowns will go straight to Southern Area Hospice Services.
We have pieces to suit every bride, simple but beautiful examples of period and modern styles. Each piece is the epitome of style and elegance"
“Encore will be having a visit from the BBC's Jo Scott who will be coming to view the fashion on Wednesday 31st July, and will have lots of treats, facebook competitions and fun giveaways during the pop up period. All items are ‘one off’ so we would advise people to come early to avoid disappointment. We expect the boutique to stay open for three to four weeks, perfect for the late summer wedding season.”
Encore will be located in Buttercane Shopping Centre close to Costa Coffee and will open during regular shopping centre hours. Private bridal dress appointments can be arranged.
