The frocks this
season were fresh, fabulous and utterly fashionable. Made in a slew of colours
both broody and bright, cut yards shorter than ever before, and sewn with
copious amounts of tulle, it’s certain the gowns seen on the S/S 2013 runways
are for the stylish and edgy bride. Discover the top five trends that are set
to be seen down aisles and on celebrities in the upcoming months.
Burst of colour
Ex-Voguette Vera Wang’s colourful gowns from last season have led the way and inspired many designers to be daring and inject colour into their spring/summer collections. The most popular colour of choice was red. Both Vera Wang and Oscar dela Renta showed vibrant cherry
hues along with broodier burgundies. Romona Kevezal also chose to design in
red, along with black, silver and navy. The number two colour seen this season
was blue. Oscar de la Renta ’s

Peplum frenzy
Easily2013’ s
hottest trend, the peplum has been popping up all over town. From catwalks to
red carpets and now in stores too, its popularity is due to how flattering,

Kevezal, Rivini, Carolina Herrera and Oscar
de la Renta all
took clues from the mods.

The individual
Just as Tom Ford did when he debuted his women's collection in spring/summer 2011, three designers this season designed with particular women in mind. Carolina Herrera, Romona Keveza and Oscar dela Renta designed gowns for
friends, family and muses. At Herrera there was the fashion forward peplum, the
seventies Jagger suit and even a trench coat gown. At de la Renta there was a ballerina,
a Pre-Raphaelite femme and flamenco inspired frock.
