Mmmm, pretty…

By Never teh Bride

May I present a foursome of lovely gowns by Canadian-born bridal designer Romona Keveza? I think they are wonderfully feminine without being too princess. But don’t take my word for it!

The Romona Keveza collection burst into the spotlight five years ago when the designer was asked to contribute gowns to be photographed for Legendary Brides (HarperCollins, 2000), authored by Letitia Baldridge, who served as Jacqueline Kennedy’s White House social secretary. In her sensationally illustrated book, Baldridge, a leading expert on etiquette and manners, chronicled the weddings of famous brides of the last century.

The one thing I don’t understand about Ms. Keveza is how she can design the lovely frocks above while also putting together gowns that look as if they are consuming the bride’s brain.

    Oh, but the eating-your-brain dress would be such a great Halloween costume. You could be a coral reef or a Georgia O’Keefe painting!

    Ahahahaha, good call, cari!

    Oooh!

    The upper-left-hand dress is gorgeous, even if the model appears to have already had all her moisture sucked out by the Brain-Eating Bridal Gown. (Sounds like a ’50s horror flick.) The others are nice; the lower-right-hand one is a bit odd, conjuring up images of a busy house cat who hasn’t been declawed yet.
