Spring Fantasy Renaissance
Bridal Gown
This
Elizabethan-inspired wedding gown is crafted of cream brocade
and cream satin woven with a metallic gold luster. The
brocade overskirt is folded back to display satin revers trimmed
in metallic gold, and the satin underskirt is appliqued with
golden embroidered swirl motifs. The fully lined and boned
bodice is trimmed in gold to match the skirt and its front panel
is quilted in gold thread and embroidered with a golden-yellow
rose. All embroidery patterns were custom-designed
for this gown. The gown is loosely belted with a length
of wired silk ribbon supporting a quantity of new green ribbon
leaves and a few yellow ribbon roses. The removable pleated
train is lined in satin and attached to the shoulders by golden
rose buttons. It is ornamented by another length of spring
leaves on bronze ribbon. All ribbon leaves and flowers
are handmade. The headpiece is a French hood of matching
brocade and satin, trimmed in gold piping and accented by a
ribbon rose and leaves, with a two-tier veil attached.
The cost of this gown and headpiece is approximately $4700 plus materials.
