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.

Must-Have: The Demi Dress

Posted on May 30, 2012 by Ming Wang knits

Nothing is more classic or more versatile than a sheath dress. Easily paired with a sharp blazer for work or a delicate wrap for an evening out, a perfect LBD has been a must-have in women’s wardrobes for decades – so it’s no surprise that this timeless cut made it to our “Fabulous Five”. But the perfect sheath isn’t always easy to find. That’s why the “Demi” dress was designed with fit and comfort in mind. In Ming Wang’s signature wrinkle-resistant, lightweight knit, this style flatters curves and exudes class, from boardroom to dinner out – especially during summer’s social season. Get it in your favorite seasonal colors but if you’re a fan of the classics, it’s guaranteed in-stock in black year-round.

Refresh your look

Need something refreshing? This jacket will do just the trick! One of my favorite jackets in the new Ming Wang spring collection and will hopefully be yours too. This jacket looks flattering on most body types. The circular pattern was designed for a feminine and flattering silhouette. It’s the ultimate combination of soft style and updated chic; it can be dressed both up and down, with a tease of rhinestones that touch upon select black swirls. The tank’s color is what will control the wear of the jacket. For example, wear it with the matching tank for a daytime look; wear it back to black to instantly step up your style. I paired my jacket with my little black dress for a dressier look, or with a white shirt, jeans and belt for a casual day of shopping! If you’re a little top-heavy, I suggest paring it with the MS02 in black to help camouflage proportions and give an overall longer, thinner appearance.

How will you style this jacket?

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!
