... All Dressed in White

I am absolutely no where near ready to get married, and to be honest, I have never really been one of those girls who has been dreaming and planning her wedding since age 6. Sometimes I think running off to Vegas or Mexico will actually be a good idea for me some day. That is until I saw this gown from Oscar de la Renta's Spring 2011 collection which appeared on the NYC runways two weeks ago. I was absolutely awestruck. A wedding is (hopefully) a once in a lifetime experience, and the only opportunity to wear an over-the-top white dress. How could I ever turn that down? The construction detail in this dress is exquisite. It has movement but still figure flattering. I have recently been paying more attention to Bridal fashion, seeing as one of my best girlfriends has asked me to make her dress when she decides to walk down the isle. It's quite an undertaking, which I why I am starting to collect ideas now. I don't know whether my skill level will ever be that of Oscar's, but I am thankful for the inspiration. Still need to meet the right guy, but when that day comes, maybe I will make my own over-the-top white dress too!
