2009 Couture Wedding Gowns

[amandainvermont]

You can count on Jean Paul Gaultier.

This is Givenchy

And here is Luisa Beccaria

And from Dolce and Gabbana

And Galliano for Dior - don't know if the delft one is a wedding dress or not. I absolutely loved it at first sight, then I thought maybe it would be too much in a hurry.

Another Galliano for Dior

wow, i love the gaultier and the peek-a-boo blue floral galliano--go figure! I would totally wear them. The gaultier is hot.

i really dislike the givenchy--i dont like it at all.

That Givenchy makes me think she sprained both ankles while playing tennis.

Being somewhat of a traditionalist, I adore the 2nd Galliano for Dior one (the Delft is really cute, but it would take a certain kind of woman and a certain type of wedding to pull it off!). I really like the Dolce & Gabbana, too.... strangely enough. Like the styling on the Beccaria, but I think it would be cuter if it were longer--there's not enough of it to love! Hate the Gaultier.

And, sigh, again, we see models who look like coat hangers with flesh... not all of them, thank goodness.

Really interesting, Amanda; thanks for posting!

-- I think a bride might risk being arrested if she showed up in a church in the Gaultier

-- The Givenchy looks like a death shroud

-- 'Meh' to the Beccaria, which appears to be dingy gray

-- The Dolce and Gabbana has "too many notes"

-- LOVE the Delft touch on the Galliano for Dior, but the outside looks like a chenille bedspread

-- The last Galliano is wonderfully classy and elegant

And thanks for posting those!

Interetsing - no true strapless, which has been the de riguer line for a long time in bridal. Big skirts, not columns. And a few short dresses. Fun.

My fave is the 2nd Galliano for Dior!

Mmm, nothing would make me feel prettier than a mini skirt, toeless socks with sandals, and some medical grade gauze over my head.

Dolce and Galliano for me, thanks. The Galtier is a bit too drag queen. Stunning drag queen, but drag nonetheless.

this thread inspired me to do a vintage wedding dress blog post!

LOVE the tarty Gaultier, and Galliano #2. The Givenchy looks like a tennis outfit for the Bride of Frankenstein.

That Givenchy reminds me of when Ava is dressing herself and gets caught up in her shirt and can't find the neck opening. I'm surprised they left that seam right down the middle of the "veil", looks sloppy.

That Gaultier is crazy fantastic.
