Recently a friend of mine recommended that I visit an outlet in Valletta called BBY Malta, an outlet that stocks a number of beautiful elegant dresses in mini, midi and full lengths as well as unique two piece suits by the Romanian fashion brand BBY.
BBY’s slogan is
Be Bold, Be Beautiful, Be You
As its motto implies, the fashion line is very interesting and prominent. It is for the woman who enjoys a stunning dress, one that is unique. The shop receives new stock every three weeks and the management only orders two sizes of each item, which ensures that you will not be seen at the same event wearing the same dress as someone else.
For purposes of this blog, to show you how gorgeous their pieces are I selected four dresses that I personally liked from their current collection, keeping in mind that very soon all the invitations to weddings, engagements and cocktail parties will start blossoming in our mail boxes just like spring flowers in bloom. Next month, I intend to show you the bright coloured ones.
For this photoshoot, I collaborated with the professional Italian photographer Federico Peltretti. We chose the magnificent upper rooms of Palazzo Parisio in Naxxar as a backdrop for our shoot and timed it perfectly with our friend the Baroness Ramsay’s birthday. When our job was done, we obviously enjoyed a pleasant late lunch at the Palazzo, a well-deserved treat we think 😉
Black and Nude Elegance
This dress is one of my favourites from their current collection. It is a fitted dress with lace embellishment at the top and the bottom. I wore it with my new nude Mineli shoes and accessorised it with a nude gloss purse bag, a statement bracelet and earrings from the new spring/summer collection at Porto.
Black is Beautiful
The Little Black Dress never goes out of fashion and will always be a firm favourite. This particular one with lace detailing gives it that tango dress feeling. I paired it with black shoes with glamorous diamante drops by Mineli and a glossy black purse from Porto at Portomaso and I felt like I was ever so ready to dance!
Bold Blue
Blue dresses have become increasingly trendy over the past few years and for good reason. A bold blue dress can be a statement piece all on its own, drawing attention with its bright color. Particularly popular blue-hued trends include blue lace dresses like this one and although blue is not as common as black or white dresses, any shade of blue can be a stand-out option. This one has attractive detailing making it an interesting number. I wore it with black shoes by Mineli and a pretty purse back with strass detailing from Porto.
White goddess
Last but not least, for that special occasion in summer with a tanned skin and gold accessories, this white gown will certainly turn a few heads. I love this dress because its design has a little bit of a Greek feel to it. The detailing makes it glamorous and the low back oh so sexy. Perfect dress for that special occasion. BBY Malta also had similar ones in red and emerald green. You have to pop in to the shop to check them out!
Where are BBY Malta?
They are situated in St Lucia Street in Valletta, in one of the roads just off Merchants Street.
