Spice Up Your Gown with Color

June 23rd, 2008

For some brides, the plain white dress simply will not do. If you are looking for a gown with drama, personality, and a custom flair, spice up your wedding gown with color.

A bridal gown does not have to be white or ivory. If pink is your favorite color, choose a lustrous silk gown in the palest of pinks. Or maybe your skin is washed out by white, but would be radiant in a golden bridal gown. Ice blue would be a cool. sophisticated color for a wedding dress.

A lovely way to add interest to a simple white wedding gown is with a colorful sash around the waist, flowing down into tails in the back. Embroidery is another detail that can be done in luscious colors. Delicate floral embroidery covering the bodice of a gown is beautiful in a pale blue or pink. A very hot trend right now is bold scrollwork designs embroidered in black thread on a white gown.

Brides who love sparkle can add beadwork in their favorite color to their gown. Scatter colored Swarovski crystals over your bodice, or have a row of beading around the waistline of your wedding dress. Whatever color you choose, carry it into a stunning set of crystal bridal jewelry for a beautifully coordinated result.

Adding a dash of color to your bridal gown is a terrific way to make the dress reflect your personality. It is a also a great idea if you want to make a simple gown more eye-catching. Not only can you make your gown more beautiful, but the color you choose can be used as a theme throughout your whole wedding to make it really show your style.
