Bridal Market Recap --- Hayley Paige for Jim Hjelm Blush

Hayley Paige for Jim Hjelm Blush Fall 2013 was hands down, one of my favorite collections to be presented at NY Bridal Fashion Week. This uber feminine line is young, fresh and fashion forward. Deep, open backs, lace, and flirty necklines dazzled down the runway.

Hayley Paige is one of the youngest bridal designers, but she is no doubt, establishing her presence in the industry. Her attention to delicate details and frilly, but not fussy, extras create an individualistic design that makes her gowns recognizable.

The greatest and most innovative addition to this already trendy collection is the removal of the underlying petticoats within the full A-line skirts. BRILLIANT!! So many brides end up removing the extra "poof" to create a softer line while still seeking the effect of a formal, bridal skirt.

Here are some the behind the scenes shots:

Hayley nailed it!!

Bridal Market Recap - Sarah Seven

Another New York Bridal Market has come and gone, but the fashionable images are still swimming in my head, and I cannot wait to share them!!

This season I have decided to share my recap blog via the way that it was presented to us. Every post will be a different designer. Besides that, there was just simply too much uber goodness to pack it all into one piece.

First up -- Sarah Seven.

Sarah is still a fresh face to the world of bridal fashion, but she has certainly made her mark. With a huge cult following, (celebrities including ), Sarah has quickly become the it girl...and I have happily joined onto the band wagon.

There were so many fantastic pieces among her latest collection, we felt like kids in a candy store. (and this was before our daily after- hours hit up at Dylan's Candy bar. ;) ) 

ALWAYS true to her aesthetic; Sarah showed on trend sparkle, lace, and the occasional sequin while remaining within her Boho-Chic comfort zone. I could not be more thrilled with her interpretation of the "Gatsby" look that took over the runway. Nothing too literal, or stuffy....which is why I fell in love with her long ago. Here are a couple sneak peek photos.

So happy to say that Serendipity Bridal is the only store within Texas that carries these amazing gowns!! We will have a trunk show on June the 7th and 8th to debut these amazing little numbers...get your spot quick!!
