With clean lines, sophisticated silhouettes and plenty of luxurious materials, Amsale's spring 2017 bridal collection was made for any bride looking to channel her inner princess. The gowns, crafted from handmade needle lace from sixteenth-century France, are surprisingly modern and versatile. Aleçon lace adds a contemporary edge to the classic styles, while delicate embroidery and floral textures incorporate a dimension of romantic femininity. The diversity of fabrics used in the collection adds an air of effortlessness, which is offset by the regal feel of the gowns. While the collection epitomizes grace and modesty, sheer panels and low backs provide a subtle nod to modern sultriness-all topped off by perfectly polished finishing touches. Collection favourites include the Christie, a strapless tulle ball gown with floral embroidery, and the Jack, a seductive fit-to-flare crepe dress with tailored seams and cut-out detailing for a contemporary yet feminine look.
