Something Old, Something New: Vintage-Inspired Wedding Dresses

imageAge is beauty. While our bodies don’t get fresher with age, ever-evolving styles continually make for a modern getting-married look. While delving into wedding albums of your grandmother’s 1920 wedding may be a step in the wrong, scary and conservative direction (think Christina Ricci’s primordial Halloween costume in the movie Casper), you can achieve a more sophisticated look by getting a gown that’s some kind of half-breed between old and new. If you’re looking for a blast of the past to solidify your look’s elegance, keep the familiar sexy shapes, but add a touch of time with some lace, flapper-like pleats, or big rounded shoulders to infuse a vintage flair. Antiquing your gown’s adornments and color palate is a beautiful way to season your wedding ceremony. A bride in vintaged garb casts a lasting iconic image that sends a shrill of pure, virtuous love with just one look. Looks from yesteryear are never completely over and done, so consider a tip from this slideshow for an exquisite taste of a bygone bride.
