Dessy Group is a global leader in social occasion and wedding apparel, distributed through specialty and department stores in the US, Canada, UK, Ireland and Australia. The Dessy Group was founded in 1939. Originally called A&M Rosenthal, the company produced bridal veils and tiaras designed by Margot Rosenthal. In the 1950s, Margot's daughter Ronnie and her husband Andrew Dessy assumed leadership roles and added bridal and bridesmaid dresses to the company's line. By the third generation, the company was known as The Dessy Group. Alan Dessy and Vivian Dessy Diamond sharpened their focus on bridesmaid dresses and added social occasion dresses and menswear to the collection. Today, Dessy Group is the company of choice for several top wedding and special occasion fashion brands, including Dessy, After Six and Alfred Sung.
