However I can't help showing off one from her 2013 collection!

Deauville by Claire Pettibone
What I love about it


It is a nice simple dress but with a dash of colour which I am loving.  It is perfect for a bride who wants a touch of vintage.

This dress will look great on a boyish figure because the drop waist will give the illusion of a waist and that lovely back will leave no one in doubt that you are expressing your feminine charm.

Oh No Not For Me.


Steer clear of this dress if you are a pear shape because what helps the boyish figure will not work to your advantage.  It is also not for the well endowed ladies because you will not be able to hide any supportive underwear under this dress.

Wedding Dress - Toulouse by Claire Pettibone

Vintage style dress are back in the limelight so here is one for you to have a look at!

Toulouse by Claire Pettibone

Why I love it?

Of course you can't have a vintage style wedding dress without any lace however it is the little details that drew me to this dress.

First there are the little bows on the skirt.  How cute are they!  Not only they add details but the long tails will flutter nicely as you walk down the aisle.


And second, I love how the top part of the dress is constructed.  You can see that the material used on the sleeve is the same fabric as the side and back of the dress.  This adds a lovely continuity to the dress which shows off a little bit of the flesh without being too brazen.


NO NO NO NO NO!

Apart from having a flawless back to be able to wear this dress I think the only other issue would be the sort of legs needed to get away with the dress.  As the bows are situated around the thigh area of the dress this will draw attention to this area therefore if you are in anyway self conscience of your legs then either get to the gym (boring), get a pair of leg shaping underwear (ugly) or choose another dress.  The choice is yours.
