Wedding Planning:: Bridal Gowns:: Article 2

For this segment of bridal gown design we're going to look at designer Augusta Jones. I found several beautiful gowns of hers. Not all of them can be donned with the "vintage" description but there are a few and those are my favorites. Just for the record, the names of these gowns are really cool names I think.


Audrey::
I guess the name, if you're thinking of Ms. Hepburn, fits given the "shape" of the dress but otherwise it doesn't really strike me as vintage. It is pretty though.




Bella::




Carmel::




Destiny::
I think the little lace sleeve is pretty.




Gia::




Jen::




Katerina::
I think this is my second favorite of this collection.




Maxine::
This is my favorite and it is totally worthy of the glorious Audrey title in my opinion and I love how her hair is fixed with it. It just totally pulls off the whole look I think.




Mustique::




Tula::
I kind of like the look of this although I could totally see myself coming unglued over the little flower thingy being up in my face.




Valetta::




Waverly::
Again the belted look. Very popular these days. Not so crazy, once again about the flower thingy though. But that's just me. I don't have anything against flower thingys honestly, just these two.



So that draws this collection to an end. Thanks for joining us and I hope you'll come back for the next designer we take a look at. We have several more waiting in the wings.

And once again... I know that not everyone can afford designer prices and that is by no means what I am suggesting here. I know I couldn't. But these are just design ideas. I came across a post that suggested to one bride to find a dress with the "bones" that you like and then have it altered and/or customized with your own special detailing to get just the look you're going for without spending the arm and leg price of a "designer" dress. Besides, who better to "design" your dress than you? Make it a "one of a kind". Make it your own!

Have a wonderful weekend!!
