Sparkly wedding dresses

Sparkle can begin with a single detail

A sparkly wedding dress does not have to shine in the same way from neckline to hem. Glitter within a fabric creates a different effect from sequins or beads on its surface. Look at the placement as well as the intensity: a decorated bodice draws the eye upwards, while a sparkling skirt changes as you walk. Choose the effect that appeals to you in the whole dress.

Amaya and Caesaria: glitter through tulle

Amaya combines a floral bodice with a layered A-line tulle skirt flecked with fine glitter. Its long train is left in plain tulle, giving you a contrast to notice as you turn. Caesaria pairs layers of glitter tulle with large floral lace motifs and a strapless corset bodice. Compare how the flowers and sparkling fabric work together in each design, from a close-up to the full silhouette.

Inca: more than one source of shine

Inca brings sequins and small beads to its corset, with plain ivory tulle layered over glitter tulle in the skirt. The bodice and skirt therefore catch the light in different ways. This is why reading the details of a particular model matters: glitter, sequins and beads describe different elements, even when they belong to the same sparkling look.

What to look for at your fitting

See the dress while standing still and while moving. If possible, compare its appearance in daylight and indoor lighting. Try jewellery and a veil with it so you can decide how many bright details you enjoy together.
