Lola & Gigi Coming to Western Canada this Spring!


Lola & Gigi are Coming to Vancouver & Calgary this Spring!!

Lola & Gigi, Canada’s hottest online, high-end fashion boutique for curvy women sizes 12+ is taking their trunk show on the road with select dates in Vancouver on June 2-3, 2010 and Calgary on June 9-10, 2010.

Fans of the weboutique on this side of the country have long been awaiting the trunk shows for a chance at an up-close look at the highly coveted pieces on their wish lists, like the luxurious show pieces from Anna Scholz, or the lady-like dresses with a twist by Melissa Masse, and flirty cocktail dresses by Tadashi Shoji.

Created by Laura Carvaggio, an expert on curvy body styling, Lola & Gigi aims to empower women to feel confident in their curves by offering fabulous clothing that fits perfectly - where the size on the label is no longer important and focus on ‘style’ is key.

“I like to help women transform themselves through clothing,” Laura says. “When something doesn’t fit I remind women: it’s not you - it’s the dress! It’s about finding the right cut and designs for your body type, without skipping out on style. And that’s where Lola & Gigi comes in.”

Known for the unique and hard-to-find brands they carry, including the eco-friendly bamboo designs of Diane Kennedy and the Miraclesuit® body slimming swimsuits, Lola & Gigi also offer denim in a array of styles to fit fuller body shapes. Not Your Daughter’s Jeans are a best seller, as are the trendy and fit conscious styles from Svoboda, Second Denim Yoga Jeans (Montreal), and David Khan.

Laura Caravaggio will attend at all trunk show dates to offer stylist advice. Plus, special guest Kim Flanagan from Mommy Wear Daily will add her styling genius in Calgary (June 10).
