Short and Sweet
By Donatella
As you can see, thanks to the suitcases surrounding the model in the Melissa Sweet dress in the upper right, these short dresses are perfect for the more simple affair – the elopement, the second marriage or perhaps the ceremony on your parent’s front porch.
As someone who’s been down the aisle more than once, I’m especially happy to say that most of the bridal designers are now including short dresses in their lines. Sometimes a girl just wants to forget about all the overblown formal wedding stuff, and rush off to Paris, or New Orleans, or city hall for a simple ceremony.
Happily, thanks to the likes of Monique Lhuillier, Melissa Sweet, and Watters Bridal (shown above) we can find short dresses that allow us the freedom to do as we please but are still unmistakably wedding dresses. We can have the best of both worlds. We can feel justified in ditching the over-priced caterers, byzantine seating charts, and unpleasant in-laws, but still look fabulous.
