{Bridal Market Recap} Adele Wechsler Fall 2010 Collection
There was something undeniably magical about the draping, detailing and styles of eco-couture designer, Adele Wechsler‘s Fall 2010 collection. This season’s inspiration was the metamorphosis of a butterfly, from simple caterpillar to a brilliant, delicate butterfly. I found this inspiration entirely appropriate given the materials Adele Wechsler uses and how she seamlessly transforms organic hemp and silk blends into glowing pieces of wearable art.
The most buzz-worthy gown (which happened to be a personal favorite) was the ‘Mother Nature’ gown, which was designed for the Ritz Carlton. Layers of petals made of silk organza, hemp and silk, fall to create a silhouette perfect for an Earth Princess Bride! In the essence of being environmentally conscious, I saw multiple convertible pieces that can be worn as separates or mixed & matched together. The use of rose bud details and interesting draping techniques were also a common thread throughout the collection.
Also worth mentioning is Adele Wechsler‘s partnership with Aveda Salons for the months of April through June in hosting a series of regional events to provide brides with eco-chic beauty tips and previews of the new collection!
If you are a eco-fashionista bride looking for a way to be eco-friendly and fabulous on your wedding day, then Adele Wechsler is your go-to, dream designer. All ECO Couture collections are made of organic hemp/silk blends, vegetable dyed silks, remnant lace and fabrics, fair trade labor, hand cut with hand sewn details, organic design elements and are manufactured in Canada. This is a must-see collection for Fall 2010.
Cheers!
