A Gift your Bridesmaids and Guests Will Flip For!

The Dessy Group Launches Bridal Party Matching Flip Flop Sandals


Flip Flops in Bridesmaid Colors October 1, 2007, NEW YORK - The Dessy Group, manufacturers of stylish bridesmaid and destination wedding gowns from Dessy Collection by Vivian Diamond, After Six and Alfred Sung, has introduced a line of matte satin and bamboo flip flop sandals to coordinate with their bridal party attire. The sandals are now exclusively available for purchase through dessy.com.

This fun, yet elegantly understated footwear comes in a range of sixty hues, ensuring an exact match to your bridal party dresses or wedding colors. The colors shine in rich matte satin paired against a natural bamboo insole. From sophisticated palettes of black, mocha and moss to bright and sunny shades of buttercup, cotton candy and ginger, there is a perfect match for every bridal party and season. The sandals come stylishly packaged in a coordinating chiffon drawstring bag, making them a perfect gift item for bridesmaids or as a favor for guests.

"Our customers have been requesting a product like this for sometime," said Alan Dessy, president of the Dessy Group. "Brides love to provide their bridal party with matching accessories. The sandals will also coordinate with the satin tote bags, decorative flowers and men's accessories that Dessy currently offers and are perfect for the bridal party to change into after a night of dancing."

Mr. Dessy reports that the sandals have been an instant success. "Brides are ordering a few pairs for their bridesmaids or over 100 pairs for all their guests at the reception." In response to theses requests, The Dessy Group is introducing a men's flip flop sandal. The men's offering comes in one style - rich brown masculine leather with black rubber soles.

The flip flop sandals are perfectly timed to complement the trend of destination weddings and themes. Reports one leading wedding planner, "I have a bride who wanted an exotic locale for her wedding, but decided to have a beach themed wedding closer to home so all her friends and family would be able to attend. To create a tropical feel at her indoor city venue we simply brought in palm trees, some sand and a range of brightly colored sandals for the guest. They all felt transported to the islands!"

The Dessy flip flop sandals are available in women's sizes six to ten and in men's sizes from seven to eleven. They are competitively priced at $15 per pair and The Dessy Group will be offering free shipping on all sandal orders placed before January. To view the complete range of colors available, as well as to view the entire Dessy Collection by Vivian Diamond, After Six and Alfred Sung bridesmaid collections, please visit dessy.com.
