POCKETS




Check it out!  These gowns by Rosa Clara have pockets--the top one even having pockets as the focal point of the design. While some eras went for pockets, even in formal attire, the last couple years are the first we've really seen them show up and look beautiful in bridalwear. Think about it, once-upon-a-time a bride didn't have to carry anything.except a bouquet. She had maids to handle everything else. However, pockets, like collars, peplums and hoods are all functional in their way but still a stylish fashion component to be added and enjoyed. Add to that, no bridal purse, your hands are free. Brides are going to find out what the guys have known all along: life's a lot easier with pockets

TODAY YOU'LL FIND ME. . . .


I'll be over on One Wed today talking tulle.  That's right, the fine mesh fabric you find on ballerinas in the corps de ballet is so trendy now some designers like Monique Martinez-Sandoval of Ouma specialize in dresses made out of it.  This tea-length dress is a combination of tulle and soft cotton with layers of skirt......

TEA TIME

 If you've been following me for any length of time you know I'm absolutely daffy over hats--especially ones like these that would be welcome at any party Jay Gatsby might throw if he were to materialize out of the pages of fiction . . .Tea time, garden party and 1920s are great themes for a wedding.  These hats by milliner Louise Green spell out tea time chic in such gorgeous detail . . .

SALUTE TO THE SHIRT DRESS

Today we're saluting the shirt dress. I haven't seen too many of these since the 1980s.  Remember Kathleen Turner in Body Heat?  She wore the white one that became iconic.  Cybil Shepard in Taxi Driver wore a memorable version as well (Also white).  The shirtwaist is actually a more relaxed version of the hourglass, a tailored look concentrating as much on the bodice detailing as the skirt. Typically shirtwaists have long shirt-like or billowing sleeves and full gathered skirt. The above version is spot on with the Mad Men trends, with 3/4 length sleeves and accented waistline.  Shirtwaists look hot in lightweight fabrics like organza, chiffon and crepe, as well as medium weights like linen. The above version is by Michi Callica and could go be adapted to any style wedding from a garden reception to an elegant gala wedding at the Plaza.

BEST BETS FOR THE PETITE BRIDE

     Modified Mermaid: The to-the-floor sash draws the eye up and tulle head pouf gives the impression of height.

One of the most important things to remember if you're under 5'4 is scale. Petite and in shape, you can wear just about any gown as long as you scale down to the right proportion. Also thinking vertically (up, up, up) it will be easier to figure out which treatments suit you best. For instance, choose a bodice and neckline that draw the eye up to your decolletage. Here’s more to consider:

GO FOR

* a gown with a panel or seam(s) running up the front. The unbroken lines give you height.

*Empire waists are one of your best options considering you go floor length. You want to keep that vertical line going.

* A V or U-neck, it gives the impression of a longer neck.

*A mermaid. If you’re slim and petite consider this style. It’s fitted like an evening gown up top and has all the bounce and swirl of a ball gown below.

*An A-line. Think of it as your very own scaled down version of a ball gown.

*Sheath and evening gown silhouettes, long and columnar; they will flatter you.

* length over volume in your skirt

*Sleeves that are long and straight.

* Best proportion is a floor length gown with veil or train of the same length.

*prints and laces as well as any motifs should be scaled down and worn on the upper portions of the body. Busy designs below the waist (even small ones) draw all eyes downward.

*Soft and sheer fabrics like crepe and chiffon that drape to the body.

PASS UP:
*any ball gown. The volume in the skirts will consume you.

*heavy, elaborate fabrics like brocade or any print or design that is large.

*Wide belts, sashes and cummerbunds interrupt the vertical lines you want to create. If you do wear a sash or belt go thin (1-1 ½ inches) and as close to the shade of your gown as you can get.

*any design with big puffy sleeves or shoulder pads.

*Any train longer than a sweep.


Empire waisted gown--the length keeps the vertical lines going

The Aline is a perfect version of ball gown for the petite bride
