When one thinks of David's Bridal, I doubt images of Vera Wang's gorgeous couture wedding gowns come to mind.
Yet (in probably her smartest move in awhile), Vera has actually teamed up with David's Bridal and created "White by Vera Wang", a line of high quality and affordable (signature Vera Wang) wedding dresses, each ranging from 600$ to 1400$.
I know what you're thinking, dear readers:
WHHHHHAAAAATTTT??
VERA WANG FOR THAT PRICE?? NO WAY! THESE DRESSES MUST BE HIDEOUS AND ACTUALLY BE MADE OUT OF TOILET PAPER!!!
Actually, no.
Take a look at the (first) 10 dresses unveiled:
Not bad, Vera.
Other than the sad looking dress on the bottom row (5th), I sincerely like what I see. Each dress is a distinct style, making the overall collection appealing and accessible to many different brides.
Personally, I'm crazy about the 3rd dress on the bottom row (who's surprised?). The folds on the skirt (the fabric looks so luxe!) and the one-sided sleeve makes it incredibly modern.
The best part is, most of these dresses look like they could easily be in the 2000$ + price range, especially with a Vera Wang tag inside.
(Note that the 3rd and 4th look on the top row were inspired by the gowns she created for Chelsea Clinton and Ivanka Trump, respectively).
So Fashionista Brides, get ready. The White collection (in its entirety!) will be in stores in February 2011.
Check out this video with Vera herself, as she gives you (and Oprah.com (therefore, the entire world)) an exclusive sneak peak.
