Delphine Manivet Bridal Wear Summer 2012

There's no better way to start a week than with a Midsummer Night's Dream of the most breathtaking wedding gowns. French bridal wear designer Delphine Manivet has earned our attention with her enchanting bridal collection for Spring/Summer 2012. There is something in this range to suit every type of bride: vintage inspired, bohemian chic, fanciful and feminine, short and sweet and modern functionality. 

Whipped in a mist of vanilla creme and ivory, the collection unveils dainty gowns that allude to imagery of woodland fairies and medieval princesses. Manivet uses a host of luxurious fabrics that fall with grace: retro seventies slip dresses in glossy silk satin, airy organza and full tulle gowns, high waisted skirts in silk gaze, comfort-fit frocks in silk radzmir, the casualness of a shorts set and cotton tulle mini's, the delicacy of Calais lace and pretty ruffles, and the unexpected appearance of tweed and silk jersey.

Whether you're a summer bride-to-be, or just enjoy the daydream of running through a field of daisies in that perfect white dress, this collection will leave you in a blissful reverie.









My favourite picks from this exquisite range is Galileé and Aime, what are yours?

One word: wow. WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW!

They are all absolutely divine, but if I had to pick just one it would be Tristan. It's making me sad I didn't know about these when I got married!

Dominika | Into the Bloom said...

My favourite ones are Galilee, Apollinaire and Nataniel, they're so stunning! What I love about these dresses is that some of them don't necessarily have to be treated as bridal wear only and can be worn to several other occasions. :)

Oh my gosh, these are beautiful! I've never heard of Delphine Manivet before, but now I know to look out for her, since those dresses are amazing. I especially love the woodland-fairy-esque ones. So flirty and charming, at the same time, elegant.

I love the romantic, delicate styling of these dresses!

Yes it was Karlie Kloss in the editorial - it is quite an edgy look for her right?

Paris said...

Gorgeous!! You are so right, eyeing these gorgeous dresses is the perfect way to start the week :)
I love the Aime too!
And to answer your question, I'm not entirely sure the difference with Mexican Hot Chocolate, but I believe they add some other spices. It wasn't super strong, just light but delicious!

xoxo,
