There’s something about the Italians and style. Italian women – and men – just seem to effortlessly dress to perfection, so it’s no surprise that their bridal designers offers just that.
Luisa Lotti of Luisa Sposa has been making wedding dresses since 1989, and her creations are embellished with delicate lace and beautiful embroidery to infuse a romantic charm.

Rosa Clara’s 2012 wedding dress collection offers clean, minimal lines for the modern bride. The simple bodices, inspired by t-shirts, are teamed with swishy skirts , asymmetric necklines and bare backs. And we’re simply in love with the dresses that have pockets.
Our favourites are Audrey, Antifaz, Alma and Aixa.

Spanish favourite, Raimon Bundó’s 2012 bridal collection is a elegant range that puts emphasis on natural silks, mikados and dupioni as well as carefully selected materials. The collection mixes different elements and styles and recalls the golden days in which the seal of elegance and quality are unmistakeable.
There is even a gown that looks very much like the one a certain Duchess wore for her April wedding last year…

How gorgeous isn’t Finnish designer Minna’s bohemian wedding collection? These hand embellished wedding dresses won’t make you choke on the wedding cake when you see the price tag either. At a very affordable £200 to £500, the vintage inspired capsule collection includes gowns, veils, turbans and lots of hair adornments to complete the bridal look.
For the superstitious brides, old marital good luck customs can be added to the dresses, so if you want something old or something new to adorn the gown it can be added. You can also have your favourite love poem or perhaps the wedding date embroidered in as well for a truly unique gown.
See the complete collection on www.minna.co.uk.

We’re bound to see one of these gowns by Marchesa at the forthcoming Oscars in March, but will we see the designs transferred into the bridal world? I do hope so!
The rather angelic autumn/winter 2012 collection was inspired by a 1879 portrait painting ‘ A Soul Brought to Heaven’ by William Adolphe Bourgueraus. The show was a dreamlike spectacular with floaty, ott ball gowns that will make any woman the belle of the ball – her wedding!
Be ready for winter brides to look for embroidery, lace, feathers, more lace, tulle… and did I mention lace?

The red carpet isn’t the only place to get inspiration for which wedding dress design you’d like for your wedding.
Fashion Week is again keeping the fashion industry busy, and New York is first out before the show rolls into London this weekend. One of our favourite wedding dress designers, Jenny Packham, showed her Autumn 2012 collection one the catwalk on Monday 13 February, and there were certainly a couple of shapes to inspire brides-to-be.
Check out the gallery below for Jenny Packham’s Fall 2012 dress designs from New York Fashion Week.

While the Americans and LA had the Grammy’s last night, the Brits had the BAFTAs in London with lots of beautiful people taking to the red carpet. The likes of Christina Hendricks (showing off her envious hour glass figure), Holliday Grainger and Penelope Cruz all looked fantastic as they walked down the aisle to the Royal Opera House.
Which one of our chosen ten is your favourite?

Award season is here again (I know I say it all the time), and as per usual we like to cast a glance at what the starlets are wearing on the red carpet. Film and music events bring out the best designers and any bride-to-be looking for a dress that’s a bit out of the ordinary would be wise to note what the A-listers are wearing. After all, you will be the star of your own red carpet on your big day…
Below are five of the best dresses from last night’s Grammy Awards.

Manivet will hit the ecommerce site with two ranges: Couture (out 28 February) and Boho (4 April). Couture will bring a contemporary twist to traditional bridalwear, while the boho will be chic as only the French can be – think flowing lace.

The latest collection features a series of classic white gowns as well as a selection of colourful creations for those looking to add a splash of colour. Which one is your favourite?

Kaviar Gauche Berlin Fashion Week
And the bride wore… Hardly anything!
Most often less is more, but we’re not sure that this goes when it comes to wedding fashion. Berlin-based fashion label Kaviar Gauche caused quite the commotion when they sent this risqué wedding outfit down the runway at Berlin Fashion Week yesterday.
What can definitely not be classified as a wedding dress consists of a veil and… a bikini? The g-string and bra combo, joined together by a small piece of fabric, would look more at home on a Victoria’s Secret shoot than at a wedding.
The rest of their bridal collection was far more covering and included some stunning designs.
What do you think of the wedding bikini – more honeymoon than wedding ceremony?
