Bridal Fashion Week Fall 2012

Vera Wang Fall 2012

Roll out the wedding aisle runners, it’s Bridal Fashion Week! The Fall 2012 bridal season has been a mix of new and interesting trends, as well as a continuation of past seasons’ favorites. Among the most noticeable new trends for 2013 was color. While color has been previously seen on the runway, think pastel shades; sea foam greens; shades of taupe; and pinks, Fall 2012 is showing preference for rich red shades. Perhaps a nod to the Chinese influence on fashion. Chinese brides traditionally wear red wedding gowns, as red is a symbol of good luck and happiness in Chinese culture.

For the more daring brides, we spotted color wedding dresses, red included, at Tiffany’s Bridal Salon located at 1104 Santee St. and LA Queen’s Boutique located at 912 S. Santee St.

Also prominent on the runway were bold embellishments. From over-the-top tiered skirts to oversized bows, the Fall 2012 brides are making a statement. We loved the unique looks and detailing on these dresses. Find unique bridal looks of your own at Noell. Though they are not a bridal salon, Noell specializes in evening dresses and carries the best selection of name brands. Many of the designs they carry are exclusive to the store; you won’t find their dresses anywhere else!

Making a return from previous seasons were cap sleeve dresses and classic lace, while the one shoulder trend continues to gain momentum. For a wide selection of bridal dresses visit Joy bridal boutique at 940-D Santee Street. They carry all dress sizes up to 5X.
