Which Haute Couture Bride Are You?

Tradition has it that the bride should be dressed in white, demure and pure: but not in the case of Haute Couture! Challenging society’s ideology of the classic bride, this Fall, designers opted for controversy, or should we say reality, over tradition. So, tell us… which Haute Couture bride are you?

1. Drag Queen Bride | Jean Paul Gaultier

He is the enfant terrible of the fashion world and not intent on losing his reputation any time soon. This season, Jean Paul Gaultier, presented his most challenging bride to date: the drag queen bride.  Eurovision winner, Conchita Wurst, closed the haute couture show at Paris Fashion Week, resplendent in a black and red vampire-themed gown.

2. Classic Princess Bride | ELIE SAAB

King of red carpet attire, Elie Saab, left no room for casual couture this season. He presented a magical display of cocktail gowns, sparkle, sheer and the finest craftsmanship. The collection takes inspiration from Paris, the City of Light, through its ethereal interiors. The jewel-toned colors of the collection’s palette recall the faceted, prismic reflections of crystal chandeliers. And the bridal gown was classic princess couture.

3. Pregnant Bride | Chanel

This Fall, Karl Lagerfeld presented a chic and regal Haute Couture collection at the Grand Palais, which took inspiration from visionary architect Le Corbusier’s Parisian apartment. The bride entered the Grand Palais as if it was a church; model Ashleigh Good appeared like a virgin dressed in a white Empress-style dress. When suddenly, to onlookers surprise a dramatic bump reveals that the bride is seven-months pregnant! Talk about Taboo.

4. Sparkletastic Bride | Zuhair Murad

If you’ve always dreamed of shining your way down the aisle, then this dress is for you! Lebanese designer, Zuhair Murad, presented a collection that gave a nod to the architectural renaissance reflective in Lebanon’s capital city, Beirut.
