Carolyn’s Pick: 3/4-Sleeve Scoop Neck Dress

Posted on September 20, 2012 by Ming Wang knits

Each season Ming Wang’s Senior Merchandising Director, Carolyn Wang, makes her selection of the top basics for the season, based on trends and feedback from customers. For Fall, she recommends updating your LBD from a classic sheath to a ¾ sleeve scoop neck dress as temperatures start to drop. Pair it with any of your favorite Ming Wang pieces for work or evening, a denim jacket for day, or with a belt and bold accessories for night. Polished and sophisticated, this dress is a perfect canvas for a variety of looks no matter what the occasion.

Recap: Texas Conference for Women

Posted on December 12, 2011 by mingwangknits

Last month, I had a chance to participate in the Texas Conference for Women; showcasing some new Spring 2012 Ming Wang pieces and our classic Little Black Dress, as part of the MORE Magazine exhibit. The conference brought women together to share and gain wisdom on a wide array of both personal and professional topics. Our main mission was to saturate the women of the conference with knowledge about our brand and style them.

Above is a peek of what our booth looked like, along with the mannequins that I styled for the event. Six LBDs styled six different ways! (How do you style yours?)

I also showed up in my very own LBD, which I bought back in 2003(!) styled with a black jacket from this year. It was an excellent example of how Ming Wang’s blacks can be worn season after season and never fade!

Two of the conference’s key speakers were also caught wearing Ming Wang at the event, including “Great Day Houston” host, Deborah Duncan, and Financial Expert, Glinda Bridgforth.

A diversity of women attended the event, from different backgrounds, different ages (20’s-60’s), and different sizes. Both new and old customers stopped by our booth, and we heard many positive comments! Everyone seems to love the range of sizes we offer (XS – 3X), the wrinkle resistance, and the travel friendly qualities. Not to mention, they loved our hosts as well

Conference attendees were also given the rare opportunity to purchase Ming Wang pieces directly from us! Several Spring 2012 styles were on sale, as were several of our most popular black basics.

As if that wasn’t enough, people who stopped by our booth and Liked Ming Wang’s Facebook page were entered into a contest to win a basket full of goodies: the LBD, a Ming Wang wallet, scarf, and accessories. Congratulations to Christine Kiss, the lucky winner of the day!

Be sure to check out more photos from the event on our Facebook page, along with all the positive vibes we received from attendees! Also check out these professional photos on behalf of Jaxon Entertainment & Productions.

We were proud to be a part of this wonderful event and look forward to future events with MORE Magazine!

Be versatile

Posted on September 16, 2011 by mingwangknits

I love the versatility that Ming Wang’s jackets have. The jackets can be casual or can be dressed up. Take this jacket for example (M3436).

Simple jeans and a white shirt with flats for a casual day, running errands, or your favorite little black dress with heels, pearls and a clutch for a dressier look that’s perfect for a dinner date with someone special!

So tell me, which would you go for, casual or dressy?

Love your LBD!

Little Black Dress looking a bit on the plain side?
The Little Black Dress has been a staple in my closet for years. And if you’re like me, you’d probably only paired your LBD with a necklace. Well ladies it time to start looking at your LBD differently! I like think of my LBD as a blank canvas and with a few accessories you can transform the LBD into a variety of looks.

Here is an easy and quick transformation:
Add a belt to accentuate your waist and to add dimension by breaking up the dress. A scarf and bag make this a casual look – just make sure they’re colorful!

Let me know how you wear your LBD, and click here for more ideas!
