bridal sweet

Wang

New York bridal week wound down yesterday, leaving most editors seemingly fatigued. "If I see another white dress…," one moaned to another, while boarding the elevators up to Vera Wang's show. But to be fair, aren't the editors themselves partly responsible for expecting the parade of ivory frocks that comprises bridal week? As someone who is getting married soon and was attending the presentations merely to get ideas for my own upcoming ceremony, I was charmed by Wang's 32 looks. After attending her ready-to-wear shows, where color is such a strong statement, its absence made me focus on other things, like draping, as seen on the front of one dress, where the fabric was sculpted into a shape that merely hinted at a bow; in a sheath crafted from tulle that delicately fell about the body in sunburst pleats; and in a Greek-inspired column that was my favorite for its elegant simplicity. But Wang had something for those editors who remained exhausted, too. She followed her presentation with the unveiling of her fine wedding linens, which will debut next month on her new site, Verawangonweddings.com.
