Wedding Dresses

The Great Gown Smackdown

It's the kind of choice we'd like to be forced to make: "Who should design my wedding gown? One internationally renowned designer....or the other internationally renowned designer?" And since we've already lost much of the day discussing which one Chelsea picked, why not finish it off by indulging the (admittedly preposterous) "battle" that we've imagined?

Vera Wang and Oscar de la Renta have remained among the most recognized and respected designers in bridal fashion for years, but their signature styles are quite different. In recent seasons, Vera's gowns (left) have become much more avant-garde, featuring unconventional draping techniques and eyebrow-raising details, while Oscar consistently creates modern, feminine twists on the classics (right).
