It was in early January that I wrote about upcoming trends for 2009 weddings.
Today, I tripped on an article online about Vintage Hollywood Tops Trends and lo and behold, it was all about the glamour and chic of days gone by; talking about everything vintage from rings to dresses.

The recreation of the Hollywood look is quite simple and understated. The details of the dress are second only to the bride’s face as the focal point. Fabrics are stunning in silk, which can be draped creating a shapely look.
The rings are self-designed making that personal signature statement. This gives a unique look, making for a one-of-a-kind creation.
Hair is wavy and long but sculpted into shape, sans the stiffness of times gone by.
I’m going to keep following this vintage trend and see whether it has legs for the rest of the year.
If old is new- then brides today have an opportunity to capture the mood of the MGM and Metro Goldwyn movie studios of the 1950’s diva age of Hollywood.
Today’s stars are setting the tone of this new feel for brides and the future will tell if bridal style will follow.
