Would You Wear: Vera Wang’s Black Wedding Gowns

Would You Wear: Vera Wang's Black Wedding Gowns

It’s Bridal time (FUCK YEAH MARRIAGE)! All the heavy hitters–Carolina Herrera, Monique Lhuillier, Oscar de la Renta–are showing wedding collections for Fall 2012. Interestingly, the heaviest hitter of them all, Vera Wang, was feeling pretty moody: black wedding gown levels of moody. For what it’s worth, Wang was wading into darker waters last season (she showed lots of dove gray) but still kept it pretty romantic and delicate. This collection, however, is downright goth. I don’t mean to be a completely ridiculous parody of my high school goth self but… I kind of like them? More »

Gallery: Model Molly Sims Got Married (And Wore A Lovely Marchesa Dress)

Sometimes things just work out for impossibly fit, tall blondes like Molly Sims. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit evergreen and CoverGirl face tied the knot with movie producer Scott Stuber. The ceremony took place over the weekend in Napa Valley and Fergie was there. Sims wore a traditional lacy white fishtail by (wait for it) Marchesa, which we all found very lovely. The jewels were by Lorraine Schwartz and the groom wore Tom Ford. Here are some shots. More »

Gallery: Which Of These Vera Wang Wedding Gowns Will Kim Kardashian Wear On Her Big Day?

The following dresses are looks from Vera Wang’s Fall 2011 bridal collection, in which we ask, “Which one will Kim Kardashian choose on her wedding day?” The short answer is… “None of them,” because Kim Kardashian is probably getting her gown custom made by Wang and her team. However, if we look at the recent runway show, we can try to imagine the subtle changes Kim Kardashian might request so that the gowns better reflect her own… unique… style. More »

Say Yes To The Mess: Welcome To My Breasts

Say Yes To The Mess: Welcome To My Breasts

Meghan Keane is getting married in October. This column is helping her cope.

According to a few moms I know, the act of giving birth changes a woman’s approach to modesty. After your bottom half has been exposed to a room attentive technicians for a few hours while you attempt push a baby through a very small hole, women appear to care less who sees them naked.

Bullish: How to Build a Modern Woman’s Hope Chest Without Looking Like an Insane Harpy

Bullish: How to Build a Modern Woman's Hope Chest Without Looking Like an Insane Harpy

They’d sign up for a particular pattern and hope to receive forks, spoons, and knives for their various birthdays, until they had collected the whole set. As a token of having committed to forward-thinking silverware collecting, the company would send them a tiny pin — as in, a brooch that is a spoon. You wear it on your clothes. To announce to the whole world that you are collecting silverware for your future marriage. More »
