-New York Bridal Week - Fall 2018-

Vera Wang is the queen of weddings, a woman who has revolutionized the bridal style and the concept of wedding dress, modernizing patterns and introducing elements that were previously only seen in ready-to-wear garments. Since 1990, its sophisticated needle has evolved to the pace of social changes, anticipating even some cultural movements that later have had an important impact on fashion.

There are many, and of different ages, women who dream of a dress of Wang and she works, day by day, so that each one of her can achieve her dream. The collection presented now, for the autumn of 2018, flirts with the Gothic aesthetic, playing, in addition, with the codes of the corsetry.

Gothic goes beyond the use of black, a tone that is not lacking in Wang's proposal, and his style has strong links with Victorian aesthetics, modernism and romanticism. The designer reinvents the lace, adding applications and simple embroidery, with an ornamental style that moves away from the hackneyed drawing of flowers. The volumes are very capricious and they mark dresses that have a strong dramatic load and a nostalgic vintage accent.

If Wang is the queen, the Belgians Viktor & Rolf are the wizards of brides. His proposals always have an unreal look but in this collection they work with easier to wear patterns and silhouettes that range from elongated and slender to those that boast of large volumes.

Scarlata O'Hara skirts stand out in the style of Scarlata O'Hara, now decorated with ribbons of ruffles in the shape of a heart. Hearts and bows are the two elements preferred by designers who transform at will, varying their size or shape.

Tulle is the star fabric and we see it worked in different designs. Emphasize the simplest garments, intended for civil weddings, such as minidresses of shy sports air or designs with pants. More comfortable designs for a simpler event, both in form and space. Never for the content.

Carolina Herrera rejuvenates her sewing with forced marches. We saw it in his prêt-à-porter collection and now in the bridal collection. The garments approximate the minimalist aesthetic of the 90s and highlight the details, such as the blue ties that mark the waist slightly.

The fabrics take center stage and we see simple silks smooth and striking guipures that Herrera works with elegance always looking for that fresh and attractive air. Highlights are the casual dresses that are printed and embroidered with wild flowers. Lovely!

The house Oscar de la Renta does not forget the civil ceremonies and proposes simple suits of two pieces, with T-shirt, that combines with pieces in metallic fabric. Lace and flowers sweep, as we have seen on the bridal walkways on both sides of the Atlantic. Now, for the fall of 2018, they are present in the collections of Marchesa, Zuhair Murad, Elie Saab and Monique Lhuiller.

Also in two Spanish firms, Pronovias and Rosa Clará. The first one presented the Atelier line of the collection that it showed in Barcelona at the New York Bridal Fashion Week. It is the third year that they are part of the calendar because the United States and Latin America are two of its most important markets. "The USA is a key market and the brand is expanding throughout the American market," they say from the firm.

His collection, signed by Hervé Moreau, opts for the siren line and the polite evasés but also for the large volumes. The silk is declined in organza, crêpes, morso satin and French lace that sometimes is decorated with stones in white tone.

Rosa Clará, who opened the Bridal Fashion Week in Barcelona, has now launched her campaign photos taken by the prestigious photographer Manuel de Outumuro who has portrayed the models Madison Headrick and Jordan Van Der Vyver.

The collection stands out for the use of transparencies that provide lightness, the use of chantilly, deep necklines and the 3D effect that is formed with the superposition of fabrics.

THE VEIL

The veil and tail of the bridal dress have a singular symbolic charge. It is said that the veil represents Hymenaeus, the Greek god of marriage, and that his mission is to darken the face of the bride during the ceremony until the final moment, when it is lifted once the exchange of vows has been celebrated. The length of the tail refers to the social position, heritage and status of the bride's family.

We review the collections of Aurora Gaviño, Loli Vera, Carmen Raimundo, The closet of Martina and Hortensia Maeso that have paraded in Seville.

The little ones of the house live with hope their years of catechism, but also the preparation of one of the happiest days of their lives, in which they receive their First Communion. The dresses that they will wear are part of this day and they wrap around them the joy of an event in which the girls, dressed in white, confirm their faith before family and friends.

First Communion dresses are part of an economic sector in which girls and mothers decide how it will be and how much can be spent. There are options ranging from 100 euros (such as those of the firm Tizzas in El Corte Inglés) to those of designers such as Aurora Gaviño, well known for her facet in flamenco fashion and brides, which can exceed 800 euros .

There is also the option to buy a second-hand one. Let's not forget that it's a dress that girls only wear once or twice and it's easy to find many options (of different prices and styles) on fashion shopping websites.

These weeks in Seville we have attended several parades of First Communion dresses in which the new trends that we will see in 2018 and the personal bets of the firms have been shown. Loli Vera paraded in the Pasarela del Sur while Carmen Raimundo, Aurora Gaviño and Hortensia Maeso did it in the Petit Style Walking.

Romantic and Bohemian style

«The light of the stars» is the new collection of Aurora Gaviño that works each design in an artisanal way with lace of French origin like alensson, Spanish like valencie, chantilly and Israeli fabrics. «His forms are evasés, frunces little flight in skirts and courts empires, highlighting his particular sleeves with volumes and old lace and dyed manually giving him his so personal and romantic touch where he moves us to that era of romanticism full of magic, light and illusion of all the girls who are stars on the day of their communion », they explain from the signing.

"The truth is that there has been a great evolution in the dress of First Communion, especially in the fabrics, perhaps also to have more signatures and as the celebrations have grown, the costume has become a very special and increasingly important caprice for girls and mothers, "Aurora Gaviño tells us.

Sweet and classic

It is usual to find more classic collections such as those of the Sevillanas firms Loli Vera and Carmen Raimundo. Their dresses of First Communion are made with lace, tulle, embroidery, plumeti, etc. ranging from nuclear white to slightly more toasted or beige tones.

One of the big bets is the French manga, although there are still some short sleeves. It is a practical matter because if you refresh you do not need to wear a cardigan that would "cover" the upper part of the First Communion dress in some way. Flower belts are also repeated in different shades, embroidered strips, layers, ruffles.

Special First Communion Dresses

There are also proposals for girls who want to go something different thanks to color. The pink is one of the favorite and can be worn on ribbons, belts, flowers, accessories and even subtly in the dress as in one of the designs of Hortensia Maeso.

And the new collection from El Armario de Martina, a Sevillian firm, shows us the designs of 2018 (also made to measure) with fabrics that go out of common and flax especially, laces in green water, sleeves with steering wheel, floral applications, plumeti, etc. They bet in general for the empire cut for the First Communion dress. We do not forget about children, for those who also have many possibilities.
