Sleeves are In (Partnered Post)

by

We all know by now how much of a hit the Royal Wedding was with bridal dresses. Kate, and her sister, Pippa, effortlessly looked gorgeous in white, with Kate’s long laced sleeves and fairy tale trail and Pippa’s chic floor length gown and short sleeves. Which, only confirms the belief that sleeves on wedding dresses are definitely taking the lead in wedding fashion and are as gorgeous as ever! They help the dress look elegant, yet still maintain a very sexy, chic element in other areas of the dress to compliment a bride’s best feature.

Priscilla of Boston has some lovely wedding dresses this season that hide away those jiggly arms (let’s face it, we all have a little jiggle) and accentuate the better parts, like these pictured below:

Trend Alert: Brides Go Glam for 2010

Bridal trends over the past few seasons have been veering away from conservative and adding more non-traditional details, ranging from shorter hemlines, color-infused details to tiers of ruffles and rosettes.  One look that’s still going strong is old school, red-carpet glamour with a mix of over-the-top runway.  Think movie sirens like Ava Gardner, Marlene Dietrich and Liz Taylor with a lil’ Dior thrown in for fall wedding dresses.  Luxurious fabrics, faux-fur and gathered trains with embellished crystals scream classic vintage movies.  Warm, dusty colors such as pale pink, salmon and lavender have been very dominant for bridesmaid dresses this spring.  For the Melissa Sweet line, red made quite a statement for an alternative to a fairer color palette.  One can assume that this line is referencing the Carolina Herrera Spring 2010 collection  of retro hats and feathers, since these straw fedoras as a bridesmaid accessory are amazing!
