The "vintage" theme was everywhere you looked in 2012, with several variations attempted on this very general idea. From the eclectic collections of antique dishware for place settings to the myriad of decor items; classic novels giving centerpieces height, mason jars as vases, silhouettes in everything from invitations to menu cards.
But in the coming year, vintage seems to be narrowing down to specific decades, the 1920's and 1930's in particular. Designer wedding gowns are more loosely-fit, slimmed versions, reminiscent of the flapper style dresses so prevalent in their time.
And headpieces are no longer oversized floral clips, or simple birdcage veils. They are bejeweled, they are feathered, they are lace and crystals and pearls and bandana.
deep V's are big, both in the front and in the back.
In a word (or two) Glamour-puss.
Wedding Trends always follow Hollywood, and with the forthcoming Baz Luhrman movie "The Great Gatsby" set to release in May of 2013, popular TV shows "Downton Abbey" and "Boardwalk Empire" still hitting strides with audiences nationwide, the 1920's -1930's trend is sure to be big this year.
There are several other twists on trends coming up over the next 12-18 months which I'll detail out over the next week. Exciting things are coming to the wedding industry... can't wait to see it here at the BHI Club!
