Bridal market: Christos
As was evident right from the get go with the loose hair, Christos went for a flowy look with minimal detailing. I could definitely see these dresses on a bride getting married on the beach or outdoors.

Bridal market: Kenneth Pool
Kenneth Pool this season was full of shiny satin, intricate lace, and delicate beading…great for a classic bride looking for a lot of glamour.

Happy weekend
This weekend is bridal market, and as usual, I’m excited to be attending the shows of some of my favorite designers! Be sure to follow along on twitter, instagram, and I’ll even try to get a little Vine behind the scenes action in there too (find me @Brooklyn Bride).
Of note this weekend:
