In the fall of 2005, i had the pleasure of providing day of wedding coordination for a bride who looked absolutely stunning in a red wedding dress.Yes, i said and yes, i said the dress was a deep crimson color and the juxtaposition of that bold monclerdoudounehomme hue against her pale pink skin had everyone at the wedding transfixed.
It been four years since then and while a few things have evolved in terms of wedding attire, 99% of brides still wear white(Or ivory)Dresses. In fact, since my dress wedding, I hadn seen any alternatively colored weddingDresses, in an up close and personal manner, until last Thursday night Operation Aisle Style fashion show at the monclerdoudounefemme W San Francisco.
One of the great things about living in a city with a world class fashion design school, such as the art institute of california, is that we have a wealth of student designers who are not afraid to take chances and turn traditional fashion paradigms on their heads.
The show featured several very talented students who were more than happy to debut their dresses before an audience of 400 and a panel of celebrity judges.The designers were apeksha ambaram, coral castillo, justyna fiuk, candice hurth, inez johnson, andrew landrith, leanna liu, kim pinto, lisa seraphin, chaz shaad, tameron stuber, stephanie stayer, erin rice, danielle tilford and dora un.And, while all of the designers were deserving of kudos, the judges chose chaz shaad black sleeveless full length dress as the winner(See photo).
For years to come, most brides will undoubtedly opt to don a more traditional gown on their wedding day.Hopefully, however, members of the fashion forward crowd, will consider some of the alternative wedding styles and colors available from an ever growing crop of local talent.
