27 Dresses-Amsale
I just saw 27 Dresses, very cute. Something I noticed, mostly because I was an Amsale bride myself, was all the Amsale references and I have some comments: 1. The Indian inspired BM orange dress Kathryn H. wears at the beginning (when she is cabbing from one wedding to the other in the same night) is odd as I have NEVER seen an Amsale BM dress looking anything like that. Unless it was custom made by Amsale. Was that weird to anyone else? 2. The boutique that the sister is having her fitting in is supposedly Amsale but I was at the (I think only) Amsale boutique many times to purchase my dress and for many a fitting...it looked nothing like the one in the movie. Why wouldn't they just use the real place on Madison? It was so nice! 3. How and why was Amsale the only referenced wedding designer in the movie? Was it a paid publicity thing or a choice the movie execs made?
I realize no one may know (or care) about these questions or the answers to them....but where else could I go on a rant about this sort of stuff other than LI Weddings!

Re: 27 Dresses-Amsale
1. I'm sure it was custom made for the movie 2. The movie may have been shot in LA or the boutique was too small to film in 3. Amsale probably paid to be advertised in the movie.
Disclaimer: I haven't seen the movie yet

My friend was actually and extra in the movie, I haven't seen it yet, but she said the scenes where they are trying on dresses was actually filmed in Cranston RI. She said a lot of the movie was filmed there! Go figure!
