<p>This stunning <a href="http://www.ronaldjoyce.com/">Ronald Joyce</a> gown has a delicate lace overlay and exquisite beading. Accessorise with this ivory veil with gold lace detailing at the base of the veil, and a pleated tulle, gold lace and Swarovski crystal at the comb.

<p>These have been carefully selected to include something for everyone, with <a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/tiaras-shop.html">headdresses</a> incorporating 1920s influences:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/1920s-style-feather-side-piece-tr1576a.html"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7208" title="Art Deco Feather Tiara TR1576A" src="http://www.richard-designs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Deco_Feather_Tiara_TR1576A.jpg" alt="Art Deco Feather Tiara TR1576A" width="450" height="675" /></a></p>
<p>as well as boho-chic headpieces:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/pearl-crystal-tiara-band-tr1587a.html"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7250" title="Downton Tiara Band TR1587A" src="http://www.richard-designs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Boho_Tiara_Band_TR1587A.jpg" alt="Downton Tiara Band TR1587A" width="450" height="675" /></a></p>
<p>and Royal-inspired tiaras.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/crystal-rose-tiara-tr1510a.html"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7245" title="Crystal Rose Tiara TR1510A" src="http://www.richard-designs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Vintage_Rose_Tiara_TR1510A.jpg" alt="Crystal Rose Tiara TR1510A" width="450" height="675" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/veils-shop.html">Veils</a> include this season’s hottest detail: lace!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/lace-applique-veil-c249b.html"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6891" title="Lace Applique Veil C249B" src="http://www.richard-designs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Lace_Applique_Veil_C249B.jpg" alt="Lace Applique Veil C249B" width="450" height="675" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The current season&#8217;s bridal collection of wedding <a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/veils-shop.html">veils</a>, <a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/tiaras-shop.html">tiaras</a>, <a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/shop-jewellery.html">jewellery</a> and <a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/wedding-dress-belts.html">belts</a> takes inspiration from the Art Deco and 1920s era. The collection moves away from vintage inspired elements, and moves towards a more glamorous look.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.richard-designs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Art-Deco-Lookbook.pdf"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7465" title="Richard Designs Presents...Decandent Twenties" src="http://www.richard-designs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Richard_Designs_Presents.jpg" alt="Richard Designs Presents...Decandent Twenties" width="450" height="521" /></a></p>
<p>There is a beautiful new delicacy to headdresses. Tiny crystals are combined with lustrous pearls for an overall random yet light touch, and clear crystal adds texture, with touches of silver diamante to bring out depth. The inclusion of lace continues, as traditional tiaras are softened with delicate fabrics. Metallic accents are key, with silver sequin, diamante, crystal and beaded appliqués and shimmering metallic yarn fabrics included.</p>
