This afternoon we are thrilled to welcome back celebrity stylist Holly Ounstead to the blog to talk more about Bridal fashion. Today she has picked a selection of gowns to suit a winter or Christmas wedding, full of festive sparkle and luxe fabrics.
I?LL PASS YOU OVER TO HOLLY TO TELL YOU MORE:
Being a December bride most definitely has it?s perks. Since English summers are becoming ever-more unpredictable, opting to set your date during the darker months of the year is becoming an ever attractive alternative. Perhaps the most enticing reason to opt for a wintery wedding however, is that dusky days lend themselves to ball-gown styles in a way that summer-nights do not. Think about how Christmas parties bring out the all-singing-all-dancing party-frocks!
To fully embrace the beautiful gowns designed for winter months, make sure to; explore sleeve lengths in an embellished appliqué, delve into taffeta, silk satin and frothy tulle fabrics and embrace beading, feathers and sequins. Darker months allow you to be a little bolder with embellishments because they don?t look as heavy against the darkening skies.
