Vera Wang Fall 2012 Wedding Gowns

Vera Wang, often considered the world’s preeminent wedding dress designer, definitely surprised at her Fall 2012 Bridal Show.

Her latest “witchcraft” collection included the signatures of her design  – luxurious fabrics and intricate construction – and also a bold use of nude and black. (There was not a single white gown in the show!)

I have to admit, while I love love love Vera Wang and admire the artistry of each of these unique creations, they just don’t feel bridal to me.  I want to look at a new collection and fall in love. I want to be able to imagine myself in my favorite gowns and be slightly envious of the bride who actually gets wear to wear one.

But this collection, while beautiful, makes me want to attend an amazing gala, not be the bride.

What do you think?  Do these black and nude gowns inspire you?
