Gorgeous glam gowns at Idan Cohen’s New York Bridal Fashion Week Show for Fall 2017 were seductive, sexy, most for confident brides. The gowns were often highly ornate, with intricate beading and embroidery, some with interesting appliqué details here and there. The natural-looking hairstyles, by Ammon Carver, L’Anza, had waved accents around the face with a few strands flowing freely at the front, hair draped gently over the ears, deconstructed in texture at the back of a low pony caught elegantly at the nape of the neck. Some wore jeweled headbands and tiaras, by Justine M. Couture. For more amazing bridal gowns and inspiration, click HERE

Beautiful brides, in gorgeous stunning gowns, from the Spring 2017 Naeem Kahn Couture show. Hair, both classic and dazzling, was by Jon Reyman for Aveda. Whether a bride wears a veil, jewelry on her hair, a jeweled headpiece, or nothing on her head, the option is there more than ever today. A chignon, knotted and looped low on the nape, is as elegant as it can get. A choker necklace is something to consider, very fashion now, large dangling earrings too.
