Couture Bridal Inspiration from Paris<\/h2>\n

What\u2019s not to love about Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week?! Utterly decadent, gloriously exuberant and infinitely indulgent, this year\u2019s offerings on the bridal circuit are nothing short of fabulous and eminently swoon-worthy. We\u2019ve spent all week happily just sighing and smiling at what we\u2019ve seen, so we thought it only fair to share our favourites with you.<\/p>\n

Our three top picks<\/h3>\n

Elie Saab gave us hints of colour amongst sheer panels and heavy sparkling embellishments; Giambattista Valli gave us florals in abundance and with rumours of a royal wedding design on the cards, Ralph & Russo provided lavish luxury in their debut as the first British label to be invited to Haute Couture week in almost a century.<\/p>\n

Sparkles, sparkles and more sparkles shimmered down the runway with feathers galore and subtle hints of colour across sheer fabrics. The show was\u00a0inspired by \u201cthe women in Paris in the 1920s translating their sophisticated<\/a> elegance into pieces of timeless chic”.<\/p>\n

Giambattista Valli<\/h3>\n

The idea of a goddess coming to life and falling into a wild garden gave us\u00a0gorgeous 3D flowers and pops of colour from Giambattista Valli’s show. High-low hemlines and ruffles dominated designs.<\/p>\n

Ralph & Russo<\/h3>\n

Encrusted with 3,000 hand-crafted Swarovski jewelled leaves and 40,000 pearls, Ralph & Russo’s show-stopper was an impressive ballgown. They also gave us a beautiful palette<\/a> of soft pastel tones that ran through the show. Mint green, pale blue and blush pink drifted down the aisle like a beautiful rainbow.<\/p>\n

With layers of luxurious tulle in abundance and extravagant embellishments as far as the eye could see, each dress we saw was achingly individual and perfectly created. Let\u2019s see what filters down to next season\u2019s bridal trends!<\/p>\n
