aDRESSed: Pretty Pleats

Today's aDRESSed features this amazing number from the newly launched BHLDN line.  BHLDN is closely connected to Anthropologie, so you know it'll be fabulous.

Case. In. Point.

This pleated fantasy gown will run you around $3,600 but imagine the fun you will have elegantly walking down the aisle and dancing till dawn in this number!  The dress is a shade of white & silver that stands out in a crowd and would look lovely paired with a soft lavender. 


I picture this wedding taking place in a modern venue like a museum or an upscale art gallery.  Classy and modern but offering plenty of room to twirl.

Top Row: Every bride needs to perfect shoes and luckily BHLDN doesn't disappoint with these Agave Peep Toes. The perfect bridesmaid dress from Ann Taylor Loft.  A bouquet that doesn't overwhelm via The Knot.

Middle Row: The groom looking dapper in his matching silver tie and delicate boutonniere via The Knot. The perfectly pleated cake from Faithfully Cakes.  A perfect spot for the cocktail hour via The Knot.

Bottom Row: Twirling the night away under the magical lanterns via The Knot.  Just enough for your hair from Twigs & Honey {same vendor who made my veil!}.  Elegant place cards via The Knot.

Hey, maybe I could redesign that fantasy pleated gown into a lovely wedding invitation. It needs to have the perfect mix of elegance and sass.  Elegant fonts with a touch of flare to set the mood.


You had me at Anthropologie, BHLDN.  I'm a forever fan!
