Light as Air
Trends from the Runway, Part 1

photos by Joe Mirisola
As always, many trends emerged on the runway of the latest bridal collections. In the next few days, I’ll take you through a few of the ones I really liked.
First trend up are dresses that were light as air. We saw chiffon, charmeuse, organza, and tulle go floating down the runway. This may be attributed to the season (they were the Spring 2008 collections). And also to the rise in popularity of destination weddings which often take place in warmer climates and require lighter dresses.
The first dress, by Monique Lhuillier, is called Capri and is made out of silk mousseline chiffon and has a gorgeous embroidered corseted bodice. Monique’s collection was inspired by Patrick Dougherty’s wooden branch sculptures, and had an organic feeling. She used many different techniques to create a “lighter, ethereal silhouette.” I think this dress is beautiful because of the slim draped skirt that has texture without volume and the beautiful light embroidery.
The second dress is by Melissa Sweet and is called Natasha. It’s made out of Silk Organza and features a portrait neckline, dropped waist, and a full circle skirt with lace appliqué accents. I love this dress because of the flattering neckline and the airiness of the full skirt. And I think the subtle lace details add romance without being overwhelming.
All in all, dresses that are in lighter fabrics are always easier to wear, and this season gave us many great ones. Stay tuned for more trends from the runway in the next few days.
Best,
Julie
