MUSETTE BRIDAL GOES TO BARCELONA BRIDAL WEEK




MUSETTE BRIDAL GOES TO BARCELONA BRIDAL WEEK
10,000 dresses fit for a Queen!

Musette Bridal prides itself on bringing the latest bridal ideas to Boston from around the world. Imagine the thrill of jetting off to Barcelona for the weekend to attend the 25th annual Barcelona Bridal Week to see the latest visions in white for 2016. Featuring 230 exhibitors and 10,000 wedding gowns from Europe and beyond, and watching the glamorous catwalks hosted in gentrified castles, was a dramatic and wildly impressive experience. The dresses presented were ideal for the cookie-cutter-adverse bride with edgier ideas in mind, yet mingled nicely with billowy, more classic designs. Barcelona Bridal Week provided us with the opportunity to see the newest International designer collections that we could order and introduce to the Boston crowd—bridal collections with ideas that are new, unique, and never seen before. Collections we’ll soon have in our boutique. Musette Bridal proudly carries YolanCris, Pronovias, Rosa Clará, Jenny Packham, and Remona Keveza, among others.

This year marked the twenty-fifth edition of Barcelona Bridal Week, and has officially built a bridge between the United States and Europe, crowning Barcelona as the global capital of bridal fashion amongst its neighboring countries.

The trends for spring/summer 2016 include mile-long trains; cropped tops paired with multi-tiered gowns and sheer over-skirts; appliquéd flowers and elaborate embellishments with stones, beading, and embroidery; sheer caplets; wide belts to emphasize whittled waistlines; illusion sheers with unique accents such as buttons down the back; oversized ball gowns divided in the middle to reveal a shorter dress beneath; and so much more.

Here’s a video of the YolanCris runway show that captures the variety and essence of wedding gown styles for spring/summer 2016.
