Today's Bridal Style: New Looks & Ideas
We asked Gretchen Maurer, stylist and author of The Business of
Bridal Beauty, what's new in bridal looks. Maurer says, "I
believe most of my brides in the last two years have worn strapless gowns.
They are classic, elegantly simple and allow for ease of movement."
Maurer cautioned, "however, that movement sometimes goes south, as
the bride spends most of her evening pulling up her gown. This of course
can be the demise of a poorly fitted gown but nonetheless; more is more,
if you get my drift!"
Here's what Maurer had to say about the latest designs:
Designers are pulling for you by creating beautiful new gowns
with a variety of sleeves and new designs.
The lines have definitely blurred between what is happening in fashion
and what designers are showing for brides. Just as "anything goes"
in the fashion world, brides are stepping up and branching out into
fashionable wedding statements. Stylish photo shoots are replacing the
typical portrait shoot. Today's brides have grown up in a visually and
audibly stimulated world. Fashion whips across the Internet the day
it happens!
Top wedding consultants are telling me their clients are hiring fashion
photographers to shoot their weddings. As a stylist, I have been bitten
by the fashion bug and enjoy doing wedding shoots of the unconventional
norm.
90's minimalism is being replaced buy a feast for the eyes. Asymmetrical
lines, lovely deep pleats and puckers are taking shape at the neckline,
in the back and at the waist of many current gown designs. Beautiful
fabrics are the wrappings of the new bride. Ruffles, soft bustles, sheer
lace, and quiet elegant beading swathe her in elegance. Colored nail
polish, color on the eyes and unique wedding jewelry are also fun additions
to the bride's statement.
Maurer added, "This is your day to reign, do it with style and pizzazz!"
