Red Carpet Bridal Gowns with
a Splash of Colour!

The days of the obligatory white or ivory bridal gowns are over. Many modern brides are going haute couture and favouring more colourful, figure-hugging over the more traditional white and ivory dress. Some brides are dressing like they're going to an award ceremony.

The effort celebrities go to for the Oscars is equivalent to the bride preparing for her wedding day. Heres' an interesting article in the Sydney Morning Herald "Here comes the haute couture bride", - fancy looking like a Celebrity Bride?

Also proving popular are bridal hair accessories like fascinators and other race-wear inspired bridal headpieces over the traditional bridal veils and tiaras. Whether traditional bride or glamour fashion, this is all about perfect preparation and attention to detail.

Wedding gowns have had many changes up to the 21st century. In the medieval times the nobles wore rich vibrant colours with expensive garments of furs, velvet and silks, no expense was spared. Here's an article of the 'History of the Wedding Gown', and the transitions to the white and ivory gowns so popular nowadays.

Looks like coloured wedding gowns are making a comeback!
