Spring Couture in Pastels



Elie Saab pink and white wedding gown-Spring Couture 2012


I am IN LOVE with the Spring 2012 Couture collection from Elie Saab. Dripping iced pastels, florals and beadwork symmetrically embroidered over layers of sheer fabric with a nod to 50's and 60's silhouettes and femininity, with a hint of moxie. It's simply stunning. Even the wedding gown {above}, though almost out of place amongst the other dresses, is a work of art. The entire collection is really just breathtaking. You can see the runway show here and closeup details here.

TOTALLY BEAUTIFUL.....and mostly covered-up, too. (Which I love. I'm tired of too many strapless bridal gowns.) For those of us who can sew, a few of these styles wouldn't be altogether impossible to copy, more or less. (Different but similar-looking fabric, etc. etc.) Thanks, Maegan, for these very beautiful dresses. Very inspiring wishful and pleasant thoughts..........

Those are such wonderful dresses. The models are also wonderful.
