Invisible necklines are one of the newest trends to be found in the bridal industry. They make any gown modest and elegant with just a touch of lace, pearls, or crystal appliques on the sheer fabric . Invisible necklines can also be achieved by adding an inner dress which many designers now offer.

Textured dresses are not only playful but add opulence to a gown. One of the most iconic bridal gown textures was created by Vera Wang through easy going layers that add modern sophistication to her designs. These textures make her gowns effortlessly whimsical and airy. The new 2012 Enzoani and Blue by Enzoani collections are full with playful and refined textures. Their gown styles which feature: Gloria with crinkle chiffon, Gali with fabric rosettes and pleated chiffon, and Egypt with a beaded bodice and a tiered ruched skirt made of organza. The use of these textures has made light and airy the trending look for this year’s brides.

Beaded bodices? Yes please! The trick with beaded bodices is to harmonize the bodice with the skirt. Many designers have now adorned the bodice with intricate designs while pairing it with a minimalistic skirt. Enzoani and Blue by Enzoani both use beaded bodices often in their new collection. Gerry has a beaded bodice with a lace skirt, Egypt has a similar bodice but with a tiered ruched skirt, not to mention the gorgeous beading on other gowns like Glenda, Earlton, and Gretchen.

A splash of color for your special day. Bridal gowns are now offered in an array of colors such as blush, oatmeal, and even emerald. Although not many brides are daring enough to wear a non-traditional color, many are adventurous enough to wear a colored sash. Colored sashes are a great way to add your own personal touch.

While styles are constantly changing, the new 2012 trends will provide you with happiness for a lifetime to come.

“La Soie was a breath of fresh air.  After having experienced several pushy bridal consultants at other salons, I was so happy to meet Autumn.  She was helpful, not forceful.  The dressing room was luxurious and the entire staff was professional every bit of the way.  Hoang (Rose), the seamstress was also brilliant.  In fact, I also asked her to tailor my suits after the wedding.”

“I have to admit, I was actually dreading buying my wedding dress.  I was watching shows on TV where brides were trying to find their gowns, and it really did look intimidating.  But once I came to your store, I was set at ease.  Your selection was so vast, that I could try on any style, fit, you name it, you had it.  You were the first and only shop I had to go to, which was amazing.  I was able to try on about 20 dresses in one appointment with the help of your fabulous staff, and I found my dream dress in about 3 hours.  Not only did I find my dress, but I got my petty coat, my shoes, veil, hair piece, AND my brides maids dresses.  It was a one stop shop.

After I purchased my dress, your amazing staff kept me on time with all of my appointments, and coordinated my bridesmaids ordering and picking up theirs.  I consistently got reminder calls when I needed to come in for a fitting, or when something was ready to pick up.  It made it so easy to plan the rest of my wedding when I didn’t have to worry about any of these details.

I have since told every bride I know about your store, and I think almost every one has loved you just as much as I did! I thank you for helping to make my wedding so magical!”

All my love,
Janine H
