Dress your Dress: Luxurious Lace

Thursday, May 2nd, 2013

This month, lace takes centre stage on our latest Dress your Dress mood boards. See more Designer mood boards here.

This stunning Ronald Joyce 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. The unique shape of the veil won’t hide the dress but will add a bridal aura. Team with Swarovski crystal stud earrings, or these delicate cascading pearl and crystal earrings.

This beautiful gown from Intuzuri incorporates delicate French lace for a softer look. The dropped sleeves would work perfectly with this French lace and silver diamante comb, worn in an elegant chignon or side bun. Finish off with this delicate French lace applique veil with silver crystal detailing.

This elegant, glamorous style from Maggie Sottero makes the most of corded lace, concentrated on the bodice with appliques cascading down the skirt. Play off these vertical appliques, with a corded lace applique veil and a headdress mimicing the shape of the lace. Finish with statement diamante earrings such as these silver flowers, to relect the floral detail of the lace.

Claire Pettibone Viola

Claire Pettibone’s bridal designs are always beautifully embellished with detailed vintage floral elements and this dress is no exception. The sheer panelling and guipure lace flowers cascading down the back of the dress are exquisite. To complement this dress choose subtle accessories with floral brooch elements, which have a touch of sparkle. To continue the whimsical feel of the dress add touches of antique lace and organic flowers to your table display, using antique milk urns also helps to create a beautifully rustic feel.

Dress your Dress: Jenny Packham’s Freesia

Tuesday, May 1st, 2012

Today our assistant designer Anna shows you her romantic mood board with inspiration on accessorising Jenny Packham’s Freesia gown. See more of Anna’s blogs here.

Jenny Packham Freesia

I adore this beautifully elegant dress (FREESIA) from Jenny Packham S/S 2013 range. The asymmetric shoulder and minimal detail is a perfect combination of modern elegance and delicate vintage design. To compliment this dress choose subtle accessories with vintage brooch details. A textured side spray tiara with a sweeping side bun will balance out this asymmetric design beautifully. A statement bracelet will add sparkle without overshadowing the waist and shoulder detail. The drape of this dress suggests an elegant wedding with soft colours and details. Experiment with tones of white, ivory and soft pink to create a tranquil feminine palette.
