Bridal Fashion Week- Fall 2017 recap

Wow! That is all we can say as we return home from our Fall Bridal Fashion Week in NYC. When we tell people we are going to New York for the New York Bridal Fashion Week each April and October the vision of high fashion, the fast pace of the city and all the glamour and lights. Yes this is all true but the most crazy part of what we call Bridal Market is the fact we can experience the “white out” brides experience when they shop for that one of a kind gown that is calling their name. “White Out” to us means after looking at hundreds of gowns, one right after another, they can have a tendency to all start looking the same. If you have been shopping for a gown you know what this means and if you are just starting to look for a gown, you know what can await you. With New York Bridal Fashion Week just behind us as of this past weekend, we are here to share with you the standouts and trends for the upcoming Fall/Winter 2018 Collections.

Sweetheart necklines, strapless and off the shoulder gowns are still the vision most have of being a bride.

BoHo

What does boho mean to you? Depending on your age it could be from the 1960’s – 70’s field of daisies or eco-friendly fabrics such as peace silk and to some it’s a bit more relaxed style.

Think fairytale, whimsy and flowing fabrics – yes you could even think singing birds beautiful flowers from Sleeping Beauty and flowing winds gathering movements of cape fabrics.

Tailored

Who says you have to wear a gown. How about a suit with the flare of an overskirt or cape. Deep plunging necklines accented by the tapering and tailoring of the jacket. Slacks, pants or trousers whichever you prefer to say, the fabrics allow for flowing suits to more tailored and crisp silhouettes. This was one of the standout trends we saw this time.
