Designer Thursday - Carolina Herrara (Bridal Market Fall 2010)

I couldn't let Bridal Fashion Week go by without giving you a few of my favorite loves.  One classic designer, Carolina Herrara, did not disappoint.  In fact, her gowns intrigued me immensely.  This collection was a tribute to iconic ladies and their unique styles - think Grace Kelly, Georgia O’ Keefe, Martha Graham, Edith Piaf, Virgina Wolf, Anna Pavlova, Frida Kahlo, Mary Cassatt and more (previously her gowns have also been inspired by paintings). The infusion of color onto flowing silk was pretty amazing (and I'll feature some other favorite colorful gowns later).
I love the brightness and versatility of these gowns (can you imagine rocking one as a guest to another wedding or fancy function!)

There are more traditional white gown options too like this gorgeous one sleeve with lovely tiers of alternating silk and tulle.

For more coverage or just because you like lace, this is a great option (I'd probably shorten the sleeves though)!
