Embellished Wedding Dresses We Love

He's designed for Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Naomi Campbell, Olivia Palermo, and more. So it's no surprise that Alon Livné's Fall 2017 bridal line features dresses that modern and traditional brides alike will love. "The floral motifs, interlocking organic patterns, and curvilinear embellishments, as seen in the Pearl sketch [above], are inspired by the stylistic elements of the Spanish Art Nouveau movement of the late 19th and 20th centuries," Livné tells us. "Pearl, along with the entirety of the 2017 collection, embraces femininity and perfects the female silhouette."

Fittingly, the phrase seems to be the only way to describe the dress pictured, which, along with the rest of the gowns, consists of beads and crystals delicately combined with non-beaded flowers and ornaments. The bride best suited to this season's designs? "A bride who know what she wants; super chic, elegant, and flawless."

Calling all destination brides! Don O'Neill, the creative director at Theia, created this collection for the bride who "is escaping the frigid cold and heading to a warm tropical island. She longs for warm sand between her toes and bright lagoon blue waters to form the perfect contrast to her white bridal gown. The sun will tint her winter white skin with a golden glow, her hair will flow untamed in the cool ocean breeze." Translation: simple, boho-chic, beautiful.

Chic Black Wedding Dress for the Edgy Bride

There's a reason "Barcelona" is one of the three words sister designers Yolanda and Cristina Perez would use to sum up their latest collection (the other two are "modernism" and "chic"): Their native city—with its modernist palaces and rooftops with expansive views—is a constant source of inspiration for the two. But YolanCris is trying a few new things this season, too. Namely, color—nude, blush, pink, gold, and more—and "exploring the more traditional silhouettes," they say. "That's very new for us."
