Claire Pettibone 2012 + My Dress of the Week

Oh my! (Or should I say ooh la la!?) What do you get when you place photographs by the legendary shutterbug Elizabeth Messina alongside the prettiest of French lace, silks and embroidery a girl could ever dream of wearing? Well, my lovelies, you get the Ad Campaign for the Beau Monde Collection of Claire Pettibone. And gorgeous doesn’t even begin to cover it. I’m just drooling over these jaw-dropping images.  Aside from being painstakingly beautiful, this romantic bridal couture featured is a sultry exploration of French-infused antique lace, flirtatious bodices and gold trimmed ruffles.... Definitely for the bride looking for something over-the-top romantic! So without further ado…feast your eyes, ladies!

As is tradition here in belle The Magazine, let's begin this fashion Thursday with my Dress of the Week... Brigette
