Asymmetrical Neckline

Asymmetrical necklines are here for the trendy and slightly edgy brides. An asymmetrical neckline can really create a beautiful frame for the collarbone and neck. If done right, it is a chic and sophisticated look. In this area, Romona Keveza does not disappoint. Her effortlessly chic designs, in her signature crepe fabric, are just what this trend calls for.

Sheer Fabrics

Spring is the time where fabrics get lighter and this year they go as light as utterly sheer. Sheer fabrics are for the bold bride looking for an ethereal look. With sheer fabrics come fabric manipulation and delicate floral appliques to enhance the fabric. The detail added to a sheer fabric needs to be as dainty as the fabric in order to keep that light and airy look. With this trend, we look no further then Lee Petra Grebenau. The designers attention to luxurious fabrics and exquisite hand-sewn embroideries take sheer fabrics to new heights.

Mock Neck

A second neckline trend is the mock neck. This royally inspired trend is for a fashion forward yet demure bride. When done correctly, this neckline creates a long/lean look with a touch of mystery. Ersa Atelier’s hand crafted lace and hand-sewn beading allow a mock neck, although covered up, to still feel light and open.

While sophisticated and timeless, the Romona Keveza couture bridal collection is a fashion forward alternative to the designer’s more traditional Romona Keveza Legends collection! The Fall 2017 gowns have a shared inspiration – the fantasy that every girl has of her perfect dress – whether she is a modernist, a fashionista or an aristocrat. Here is a look at the stunning Fall 2017 bridal gowns that were presented to us just last weekend during New York Bridal fashion week!

Dreamy and ethereal best describe the “fashionista” wedding gowns that first emanated from the dressing suite. These dresses featured 3d laces and intricate beadwork in subtle hues of blush, gold and lavender! Their gossamer fabrics included silk net and metallic silk embroidered lace – for an effect that was utterly enchanting!

The modern bridal gowns that came next were incredibly chic, yet feminine – including horsehair finished overskirts that softened the sleek lines of the minimalist gowns underneath. These gowns feature Romona Keveza’s signature 5ply Italian silk crepe fabric, which is truly like no other crepe in the industry. This rich fabric has just the right weight to make the gown drape perfectly along the bride’s figure, and her seaming is so impeccably effortless it belies the skill that is needed to achieve it. The Fall 2017 collection achieved a new level of architectural drama with several short dresses that were paired with overskirts of varying length and style…giving brides the versatility of transitioning from gown to cocktail dress at a moment’s notice!

Finally, the aristocrat series of gowns are best described by one term – dream dress! Featuring baroque details, silk organza flowers, beaded laces, and flowing skirts, each bridal gown gives a nod to the different princess fantasies we may have had as little girls. As always, Romona Keveza’s finale gown was the masterpiece of the collection, based on a gown from New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. Made of lace printed silk organza, the ballgown skirt is cut to lay like the petals of a flower…this dress is the ultimate chic Cinderella fantasy!
