Lately, Hollywood has given us a glimpse into upcoming wedding attire trends. Here’s Katie Holmes, playing bridesmaid on the set of The Romantics. While I love the colour, I’m leaning towards ‘Hate It’…..definitely something I would never wear, let alone ‘wear again’! What do you think of the dress?

Check out Anna Paquin’s character’s wedding gown. It ooks like a variation of the Amsale Bali gown, no?

Hello! Hope you all had a great weekend. I, unfortunately, spent the latter part of last week and this past weekend getting over a cold/cough thingy. Yuck.

So, did anyone score big at H&M this past weekend? Do TELL! (If you happen to have an extra pair of Jimmy Choos in a size 6 1/2 or 7….please send them my way.)

NEways. I wanted to let you know that the lovely Bel of And Stanley Makes Three is selling a sample bridal gown for a steal of a price – $400!!!

Here’s a little blurb by Bel about the gown:

This is a sample Venus dress in perfect condition (no rips, marks, tears, missing beads) other than a missing hook and eye clasp at the very top of the back of the dress. The dress has not been altered. I’m 5’9″ tall and would have had the dress hemmed only if I were wearing flats or low heels. The bust measurement would be 35-36″ approx (I’m 34″ and this is the only area of the dress I would have had taken in). The waist is 28-29″ and hips 36″ or so. It’s a bridal size 10 (dress size 6-8 I guess).

If you’re interested, please email Bel at bandb2010@gmail.com. She’s willing to negotiate but serious offers only please. For those of you in Canada, remember you won’t have to deal with any cross-border taxes/costs with this dress!

Happy Monday! Hope you all had a great weekend. I know I’m a tad late on posting this but here are my favourites from NYC Bridal Market. I’ve grouped them by ‘trends.’ Let me know what you think!

Black seems to be the “colour du jour.” Even black ribbon sashes adorned Vera Wang’s dresses (see below). I am loving the red dress below. Bold, bright and elegant – perfect for a bride paying respects to her Asian heritage.

Off the shoulder, one shoulder, 2010 seems to be about showing them off!

Fabric Mix-it-Up

I’m loving this ‘woven in ribbon’ (sorry, I have no idea what the proper term is!) look in both the Carlina Herrara and Anne Barge dresses below.
