During this season's New York Bridal Fashion Week, Lebanese designer Reem Acra presented his Reem Acra Fall 2016 collection. Along with presenting a collection of magical gowns, Acra accented every look with a pair of luxe headphones.
While Dolce & Gabbana first debuted couture headphones at its Fall 2015 RTW show in Milan, the Reem Acra Fall 2016 headphones are far more wedding-appropriate. Unlike the Dolce & Gabbana accessories, these headphones only serve as a contemporary tiara as opposed to actual listening devices.
While some headphones feature a tiara attached to the top, others are heavily crystallized and sleek. The Reem Acra Fall 2016 headphones are matched with modern looks featuring lingerie-inspired corsets, crop tops, ball gowns, lace edging and exaggerated trains.
