Ever since American fashion designer Lela Rose, who was born in Texas, first introduced her wedding gowns to the public, everyone already knew that she was going to be a hit. In fact, her rose to stardom was almost inevitable especially when she designed the outfits worn by sisters Jenna and Barbara Bush at their father’s presidential inauguration. After that fateful commission, Lela Rose has counted celebrities like Molly Sims, Jessica Simpson, Ashley Judd, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, Selma Blair and Mischa Barton as her clients. These days, Lela Rose is again making quite a splash after she showed the latest dresses included in her Lela Rose Spring 2012 collection. As expected, the wedding gowns were amazing - so amazing that brides will not help but heave a sigh and gape in awe when they see one, much less try one on. Included in her Lela Rose Spring 2012 collection are a number of strapless wedding gowns, with full, tulle skirts. There are also gowns that have details like gray belts around the waist, lace details on the bodice and seemingly wrap around silk hems. 
To see more of Lela Rose’s creations, you can head on down to HITCHED! Bridal Hong Kong.

It may not actually be a popular choice among Hong Kong brides but a lot have donned short wedding dresses. In fact, more and more brides of today find short wedding gowns more practical, “funky” and cool. These short wedding dresses apparently project the image that the brides who wear them are fun, adventurous and pretty “no frills.” But should brides in Hong Kong now opt for short wedding dresses? Do you think this can be a trend real soon? Here are a few of our thoughts. Short wedding dresses are suitable for outdoor summer weddings. If your wedding ceremony will be held at noon or at an hour when the sun is at its warmest, then it may be better to wear a short wedding dress. After all, do you really want to be all covered up when the heat will already become so unbearable? 
Short wedding dresses can also be great for beach weddings or for weddings where the bride needs to walk on an aisle other than that’s carpeted or dry. After all, which bride would ever want to stain her precious wedding gown? 
So as you can see, while long and flowing wedding gowns are still the most preferred styles by brides these days, there’s no reason for you not to consider short wedding dresses. It can even serve as a “back up” dress or it can be used during the reception or when all the dancing during the reception begins! If you want a couple of choices for possible short wedding dresses, consult HITCHED! Bridal Hong Kong.Visit HITCHED!
