Cabaret Vintage New Arrival: A new addition to the Cabaret Collection
As with most of the dresses in our Cabaret Collection, this piece is principally sold in a lush poi de soie. It gives a shimmering richness that we love, not to mention being so plush to touch. Usually one of the first comments from women who try on Cabaret Collection dresses is “Its so soft on!”. Well if you are going to look stunning, why not feel comfortable as well?
This particular dress is a bit of a transformer with a variety of different looks that can be achieved with additional accessories. the bow pictured at the side can be moved to the other side or the centre of the bustline. For an even more minimal look it can even be removed completely. Pictured above is the dress with a short train. When paired with the dress it gives an almost flower-like silhouette with striking bold lines. It can be ordered at the short length shown, or gown-length so it sweeps the floor. For a wedding a longer train would look lovely walking down the aisle. However for later during the reception removing the train, or a shorter one may be more practical for a bride who may be cutting up the dance floor.
Though we have received a great response from brides-to-be for our Cabaret Collection dresses, never forget that all of our designs are also available in a rainbow of colours for any women having to attend an event that would love to add a touch of vintage-inspired beauty for their look. This particular dress looks absolutely stunning in Onyx (in fact we will be posting pictures of it over the next few days.)

Come enjoy 3rd Annual ‘Queen of Hearts’ This Saturday Feb. 12
Come and enjoy the 3rd Annual Queen of Hearts Stroll. See new stores, get great deals with your Queen of Heart’s completed passport and declare your love for your beloved at the ‘Heart in the Park’ at Trinity Bellwoods.

3. Once the passport is stamped with 9 of the participating stores, you become eligible for all of deals that are offered from all 31 participating Queen of Hearts stores until the end of the month (and believe us, they are GOOD deals, half price, 2 for 1, and more).
4. Finally, come to Trinity Bellwoods Park and sign our giant ‘heart in the park’ – leave some lipstick kisses, declare your love, or ask someone to Marry You. It’s a giant public love note – and it’s free.
The Queen of Hearts Boutiques are:
Heel Boy, Doc’s Leathers & Motorcycle Gear, Dog’s Bollocks, Magpie Designs, Elle Hardware, Robber, Timmie, Doggie Outfitters Inc., Lady Mosquito, The Knit Cafe, Nearly Naked Lingerie, QSQ Giclee boutique, Woolfitt’s Art Enterprises Inc., Sunny Mummy Spa with childcare, Greatt Stuff, Preloved, Ten Thousand Villages, Murray’s Sandwich Emporium, Sant Urbano Spa, Thieves, Champagne & Cupcakes, Niche Coffee & Tea Company Inc., Labl Stylelab, Ziliotto, Simon Carter, Tealish, Cabaret, Green Shag, Cloud Espresso Bar, Charlie Boutique, Organic Boutique, Adfactor Inc.
Pick up your passport at the first store you visit. It’s worth hundreds of dollars in savings and giveaways, and it’s a fun way to spend your Saturday.
See you this Saturday, February 12th!
