Wedded Window to the Soul

Abstract

The formality of the architecture of cathedrals blended with the transparency and brokenness of crystal paned glass windows spoke to me and inspired my desire to reinterpret the dichotomous form and structure into a forward and daring bridal ensemble. Thus, blending Crystal Cathedral windows with wedded bliss, Wedded Window to the Soul was birthed. My inspiration played off of the selection of beautiful re-embroidered lace, satin bound boning and sheer organza, selected from a candle colored palette. The picturesque, delicate design components present an intriguing view of a bride, in all sense and sensuality, both formal and fashion forward.
