Turns out not every bride wants to look dreamy and frothy like a cupcake on her wedding day. While strapless gowns, princess ball gowns and an abundance of material were on display during the past spring and fall bridal runway shows, some designers threw in nontraditional looks for the iconoclastic bride. Oscar de la Renta outfitted his models in skinny pants and a fur vest for rocker chic.…

Everyone needs clothing whether she is big or small. Likewise, every bride needs a bridal gown no matter her size, plus-size or not. It’s a point – and once overlooked customer – that upmarket retailers have embraced in the last decade (Saks, Nordstrom and Bloomingdale’s now all sell plus-size wares online), giving confidence to bridal designers who are providing more plus-size options,…

Beach Wedding, Black-Tie

article by By Nola Sarkisian-Miller - CTW Features | posted on October 11, 2011 at 8:00am

Usually ladies can leave the swimsuit cover-up behind and…

For the bride who simply can’t make up her mind when it comes to choosing her wedding gown, there’s hope in the form of the convertible dress, which brides are chatting about on Internet message boards such as Weddingbee.
