The Rite of Passage

Whether a young girl is celebrating her sixteenth birthday or her Quinceanera for those young women with an Hispanic background, the theme is the same. This is the time when a young girl becomes a young lady. In the United States, this is the all-important birthday when a girl can begin to drive, get an after-school or summer job and begin to assume some adult like responsibilities. In the cultures of the Mayan-Aztec world where the tradition began, this is the big rite of passage. Many Latin cultures continue this tradition and plans are made well in advance of the young woman quince anos in order to provide an extravagant party. In medieval times, this birthday symbolized the coming of marital age and the young lady was presented with the full intention of showing how ready she was for marriage. In this 21st century, that particular idea is not prevalent. The celebration merely pays tribute to the young lady’s coming of age. Whether the party celebrates the Sweet 16 or the Quinceanera, the theme of the party is opulence and extreme. The celebration is literally months in the planning and the dress for the party takes top priority for the young lady. It is because this is the most important dress of her life to date, the designers go all out to create magical and whimsical dresses that will make her feel beautiful. There is nothing better than a party dress for her important birthday and especially a dress by a top designer.

All the designers feel the importance of this special birthday and each craftsman works diligently to produce the magnificent designs. By the time the sketch from the designer zips up the gown she is wearing, the process has been met with style and quality in order to produce the finest gown available.
