Bridal Trends SS2010: Little White Dresses

Comments (0)

Brides to be who want to show off their legs, or just be a little bit different can rejoice, because this season it's all about the Little White Wedding Dress.

Although these have been around for a good few years, and we've spoken about them alot, many highstreet designers have steered away from stocking these fearing traditional brides won't even look twice.

However, it seems all of this is changing. This year Berketex Brides started stocking a few of these little lovlies, as did Debenhams. And of course they were all over the catwalk at last year's SS2010 wedding shows.

If you're not a regular reader let us tell you why we think these little dresses are perfect for your wedding (if your a loyal reader here's a reminder.)

Firstly they are perfect for a Summer or Indian summer wedding as it means you don't have to sweat and boil under layers of fabric, and of course that makes them perfect for a destination wedding too.

We also think they are perfect for wearing again after the big day either to a summer party or on holiday with a pair of flip flops. If you opt for a porous fabric such as satin these can also be dyed to any colour you like, meaning that LWD could soon become a LBD.

With news of vaious celebrities announcing their engagement, most recently Lara Stone and today model Coco Rocha, we thought it only right to put together a gallery of the most memorable and iconic weddings.

And beleive us there's been alot. We've whittled it down to our favourites, but we'll also be popping one or two into our posts in the upcoming months.

We're very excited that Lara Stone has announced her friend and Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci will be making her gown for her upcoming wedding to David Walliams.

We knew the stunning model would go for designer, after all when you're a model for Louis Vuitton, you're accustomed to the best. However we thought she may have opted for a well known celebrity bridal designer such as Vera Wang, Oscar De La Renta or Dolce & Gabbana.

As there have been no more details about the dress, and of the wedding day including venues, we can only guess about the rest, and guess away we shall.

We've put together a gallery of different dresses and styles, which we think Lara may go for whether she decides on a beach wedding, Hollywood day or for somewhere in the UK.

Let us know what you think Lara may wear by leaving your comments below.

Yesterday we bought you a round up of all the bridal inspired dresses worn by celebrities at the Baftas.

However we didn't think it was fair to leave you looking at them and wondering where you could find something similar. So we've decided to begin a mini-series giving you get the look ideas for each celebrity and what better way to kick this off than with Vera Farmiga opted for a bridal-inspired Marchesa dress complete with a black sash.

1940s wedding dress ideas

Comments (0)

1940s wedding dresses were sometimes plain and sometimes fancy depending on how much the bride and her family had been hit by rationing.

They also became more and more fancy as the era went on and as Britain came out of the war. In our last post we recommended a few places to look for 1940s style wedding frocks but to help you out we've also decided to put together a gallery of frocks which would have been of a similar style in the 1940s.

Since we've spent the day telling you about charity wedding ideas and ethical gifts, we thought it only right to provide a gallery of recyled and ethically produced wedding dresses.

We've also added some ideas for ethical gifts that we're sure your guests won't have any issue in buying for you.

According to reports Katie had problems finding a wedding dress for her Las Vegas wedding to Alex Reid as the wedding dress shops weren't open at the time the couple wanted to get married.

A source said: 'She had her fashion team trawling all over town for a gown. In the end she just had to make do.'

We're not sure if this was a blessing in disguise judging by the bright pink Barbie frock she wore to her first wedding to Peter Andre, and although we haven't seen what she wore, we've put together some styles that she may have worn down the aisle if she'd had time to pick one up.

We know many brides are unsure about whether or not to carry a bag with them on the big day, after all they won't need their mobile phones as many of their friends and family will be there.
Then there's the worry about what to do with it when your taking your vows.

Although its not by any means a tradition to carry a bag, they do come in handy for keeping make up in, and they can be easily passed to your bridesmaid or maid of honour when you're at the ceremony.

If you like the idea of one then make sure you pick one that matches the shade of your dress. If you can get an exact match you can also customise it by adding sparkles, feathers or beading to detract from the slight colour mismatch.

We've put together a gallery of bags to help you.
