For hundreds of brides and bridesmaids, the now-bankrupt Alfred Angelo has clients’ money and their dress, NBC Connecticut reported yesterday. The company’s bankruptcy filing lists 277 creditors in Connecticut, and dresses shipped after June 24 are stuck at the port in California and will not arrive to its customers. Alfred Angelo recently sent its bankruptcy notice to its creditors. The case has to go through its respective process, which will likely take at least six months. In the meantime, those affected can file a claim through the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida, where Alfred Angelo is based. The court has one general case for Alfred Angelo customers and another one for those specifically affected in the northeast. The company’s attorney, Patricia A. Redmond, suggests affected customers take advantage of both cases. She added that a claim status update will likely be available early 2018.
