Zamora debuts bridal collection at WhiteHOT

Every bride wants to feel special on her big day, wearing a dress that expresses who she is on the outside and inside. Kini Zamora’s new Romance Collection aims to do just that. He teamed up with local bridal salon WhiteHOT Hawaii and is debuting his collection there on Saturday, May 9.

“I know how to construct wedding dresses for different body types,” he says. “I love the look on a bride’s face when she sees that her assets were tastefully showcased and her trouble spots aren’t noticeable.”

I had an exclusive first look at Zamora’s collection. The fabric actually stretches in the right areas. Some designs, like the one worn above by model Kimberly Carroll holds everything in place. Called the butterfly bridal dress, it has a carefree, sexy 1970s vibe, with updated construction and a pretty mermaid mini-train.

Zamora didn’t want me to give too much away, so you’ll have to stop by and see the the unique, edgy and sultry dresses yourself. Can I just say, “black umbrella dress from the Rainway challenge?” Okay, maybe I said too much. The collection will be for sale exclusively at WhiteHOT’s Kaimuki boutique. Prices range from $1100-$2500.

WhiteHOT owner Daisy Merto said a sample of every style will be available in the store for brides to try on. Measurements will then be given to Zamora to start the creation process. The typical production time is about 12 weeks, including two to three fittings. Faster production is available for a rush fee.

The first 50 brides attending Saturday’s debut will receive a complimentary swag bag. RSVP to kinizamoraevents@gmail.com to attend.
