We’re talking bows here! We saw bows make a statement come back but that has nothing on the hot BIG BOW trend. These bows are super structural and feature on the shoulders and back and dominate the silhouette of the gown or jumpsuit. Let’s take Balmain Haute Couture Spring/Summer pink bow. That’s the size standard here so whack the dimensions up, super size those bows to secure an edgy en vogue bridal vibe that’s just so now!
To create these stunning structural bridal bows here are some superlative fabrics to use:
Mikado
This is a relatively heavyweight fabric, which can give a wonderful structure to a wedding dress. The fabric has a soft and durable handle and is easy to work with. We now offer this Mikado in both Dark Ivory and Light Ivory.
Contessa
Contessa is a Polyester Matt Duchess Satin and is available in a range of 20 colours. This fabric is woven and dyed in Japan and is made from twisted yarns, which result in a highly dense weave and a “non snag” performance. Contessa has a firm handle and a very rich appearance. The perfect satin for structural pieces.
Regal
A lovely jacquard brocade with a swirling design this fabric has a sturdy handle and the design adds interest and innovation to a bridal design.
