Wedding Dresses

Lace Wedding Dresses from Spring 2013

Alençon, Chantilly, Gros Point, Dresden—there are seemingly as many variations on lace as there are brides who wear it, especially with this Spring 2013 season's modern, energetic emphasis on the timeless fabric.

As an iconic, longtime staple of bridal design, lace hardly offers a surprise to the world of wedding dresses. Yet, somehow, this fine, feminine fabric felt new again on the Spring 2013 runways, invigorating gowns with a fresh (sometimes sleek, sometimes rustic) perspective on how appliqués, trims, and overlays take shape around the body. Of course, it didn't hurt that almost every collection presented at least one look layered in lace, making this a watershed moment for the top textile of the season.
