Brilliantly Beaded Bridal Gowns

Crystal Dream Wedding Dress is Made from 55,000 Pearls & Crystals

— February 21, 2010 — Lifestyle
A grand, Cinderella-esque wedding can only be topped off with a sparkling bridal gown. Designer Cosmina Englezian created the Crystal Dream wedding dress for that very purpose.

Crystal Dream is made from 55,000 pearls and Swarovski crystals and 40 yards of delicate lace. All the beading was hand sewn and stitched by the designer herself with the dress weighing in at 12 kilograms.

The gorgeous sparkling wedding dress comes at quite the hefty price, costing $40,800.
Trend Themes
1. Beaded Wedding Dresses - Designing bridal gowns adorned with precious stones and pearls provides opportunities for the bridal fashion industry to offer unique and luxurious experiences to brides.
2. Hand-stitched Beading Techniques - Developing new beading techniques to speed up and simplify the hand-stitching process can improve manufacturing efficiency and lower the cost of producing beaded gowns.
3. Sustainable Crystals and Pearls - Incorporating sustainable and ethically-sourced crystals and pearls in designing wedding dresses not only promotes responsible manufacturing but also can be a distinctive selling point for eco-friendly fashion brands.
Industry Implications
1. Bridal Fashion - The bridal fashion industry can leverage the trend of creating extravagantly beaded wedding gowns to offer one-of-a-kind, high-end wedding dresses.
2. Jewelry - Jewelry retailers can work with bridal fashion designers to provide matching sets of pearls, Swarovski crystals, and precious stones that complement beaded wedding dresses for a complete bridal look.
3. Sustainable Fashion - Sustainable fashion brands can tap into the demand for eco-friendly bridal fashion by providing beaded wedding dresses made from ethically-sourced crystals and pearls.
