Lazaro Fall 2017 Wedding Dress Collection

Thanks to his expert use of beading and shimmering jewels in his wedding dress designs, the name Lazaro (Lazaro Perez of JLM Couture) has basically become synonymous with sparkle. The designer calls his Fall 2017 collection a continuation of last season's shimmering gowns, with the goal of "even more sparkle." After all, what better day to shine than on your wedding day? Hand-cut shimmering silk tulle ball gown skirts, beaded bodices, and dramatic open backs are staples in Lazaro's latest wedding dresses.

The master of movement and femininity pays special attention to what brides actually want. Right now, he says it's statement-making skirts. If not a ball gown, then a extreme trumpet. And "it's all about the backs this season," Lazaro told us in a Facebook Live interview right before the show. Sure enough, he sent glamorous, V-back, curve-hugging fit-and-flare silhouettes down the runway—some glittering with beads, others dazzling with intricate lace and embroidered details, but all guaranteed to turn heads on the big day.
