Timeless glamour
Original yet timeless, a bold red satin gown is the perfect way to bring some drama to an otherwise simple silhouette. Choose a strapless style with a romantic and feminine sweetheart neckline to frame your decolletage beautifully. The soft curve should skim down to a form-fitting bodice which carves out your waist and contrasts harmoniously with a full, mermaid cut maxi skirt. For a striking impression, opt for a longer train that drapes behind you as you walk. You can select a fresh, warm toned red or look to a deeper, blue toned red for a truly glamorous look that is ideal for formal weddings or black-tie dress codes.
All tied up
Strappy accents are the perfect way of taking an otherwise simple cut gown and elevating it to icon status. This detail is beautifully feminine while also staying chic and cool, so if you want to refresh your wedding attire and bring something different to the table that is still elegantly refined, then this is the choice for you. Choose an A-line gown with a clean square neckline, flattering waist seam and subtly sweeping maxi skirt for the perfect backdrop to your strappy tie up accents. An open back with criss cross straps or wrapped strings across waist cut outs will look cool, modern and creative, especially when crafted from a scintillating luxurious satin fabric.
Pastel dreams
Beautiful, nuanced and always feminine, a pastel tone is the perfect partner to your shining satin silhouette. This tonal choice is sure to stand out from the crowd and highlight the reflective nature of your fabric. Choose a buttercup yellow, trending lilac, soft baby pink or pastel blue for a flawless look that is suited to Spring, Summer and daytime weddings. You can even opt for a striking two-piece set with a crosetted top and a maxi skirt accentuated with a thigh-high leg cut out for an alluring contrast against the sweetness of a pastel yellow. Dress with glittering crystal jewellery and pointed heels in a fresh white or matching tone for an effortlessly elevated look that is ready for the dance floor.
