With feminine lace and romantic blossom embellishments on the gowns, it's no wonder that the 2016 Spring collection from Marchesa is something to fawn over. A perfect nod to spring, Marchesa gowns are covered in delicate petal appliqués and lace floral details on the skirts and bodices. If you're looking for that floral, romantic touch to your gown, you'll definitely find something to suit your style from Marchesa in the Spring 2016 collection.
Marchesa was not without its signature column dresses in the Spring 2016 collection, with Grecian-style gowns and figure-hugging waistlines. Marchesa took the simple, slim silouhette and turned it into something spectacular, with a top-to-bottom lace floral and vine design, intricate embroidery across the bodice or a chiffon overlay with blossom details.
However, Marchesa didn't leave the collection without a more lavish silhouette, bringing ornate ballgowns and A-line silk skirts with capped sleeves to the mix.
With an explosion of blossom appliqués dripping down the exaggerated chiffon gown from the fitted sweetheart bodice, this is definitely one of our favourites. The blossoms brings attention to the dress, while the skirt gives it a sense of occasion, without being too big to move around in. Meanwhile, the bodice accentuates the bride's waist and ensures her figure doesn't get lost in the material of the skirt.
Marchesa also brought forward vastly different necklines in the 2016 gowns, with a daring plunging neckline amidst dropped cap sleeves, giving a sultry twist to a traditional style of gown. Meanwhile, the off-the-shoulder neckline gives a classic and timeless bridal look. The entire dress looks like a garden of flowers for added romance.
This gown definitely gets the most points for its attention-grabbing abilities and sense of occasion. A waist-cinching sweetheart bodice is covered in glitzy floral embroidery, which travels down to the A-line explosion of layers upon layers of rich, bridal chiffon. The uneven layers give the skirt breath-taking texture, making the dress seem alive, while the soft edges maintains a certain elegance and bridal romance.
We couldn't talk about the Marchesa Spring 2016 collection, without drawing attention to the adorable short feathered gown. Feathers are a red hot trend for weddings at the moment, and for brides who want to get their legs out on their special day, this gown is perfect, for keeping a short, sexy dress simple, without taking away the importance or exquisite detail your wedding day calls for.
