The Houghton Bride FW 2015 collection is remarkably relaxed despite its upscale detailing. For the bride looking to cross the thin line between a laid back look and chic, high end couture, this series will certainly be one worth consulting.
According to designer Katherine Polk, these pieces were designed for brides in search of simple, sexy and timeless pieces. These motifs are seen in the line which features off-the-shoulder dresses, elongated ivory pantsuits and wide legged trousers. The collection is far from typical, swapping out excessively feminine looks for androgynous and sometimes masculine additions.
Those in search of a traditional ceremony will also be able to borrow from Houghton Bride's classic elements. Long flowing fabrics and billowing sleeves certainly incorporate quintessential bridal touches.
