Many women may have dreamed about wearing Cinderella's ballgown on their wedding day, but the style has become a lot more natural as shown in the BHLDN Fall 2014 Bridal collection. In place of big puffy skirts are flowy sheath silhouettes, yet overall the designs are still timelessly feminine and memorable.
Lace, tulle and sheer fabrics rule in the BHLDN Fall 2014 Bridal collection as well as pale, neutral and ivory tones for the beautiful bride. As for the lucky bridesmaids, a focus on soft pastels including green and taupes complement the season beautifully. Although lighter than some might believe proper for the autumn, the color palette maintains the whimsy of the summer season while muting it for the cooler months.
