· on the runway 1 MONIQUE LHUILLIER 2 CAROLINA HERRERA True Romance SPRING’S BRIDAL GOWNS ARE DESIGNED FOR ENCHANTMENT for Spring 2013, delivering a feminine crop of wedding gowns to inspire a heartfelt “I do.” Lace remains a top choice, showing up in both vintageinspired and fresh interpretations. Both sleeves and veils were longer, suggesting at once ladylike discretion and modern drama. More revealing were leg-baring slits, sheer illusion necklines and open portrait backs. Peplums, a crossover hit from readyto-wear, were the hot new detail for bridal. And for the fashion-forward, color — from soft blushes, baby blues and ﬂoral prints to bold scarlet hues — is a trend that’s clearly here to stay. 5 ANGEL SANCHEZ 3 OSCAR DE LA RENTA 4 MARK ZUNINO 6 VICTORIA NICOLE 7 ROSA CLARA 1.
