The Best of the 2014 Vintage-Inspired Wedding Gowns

"It's all about the gown!"

Once a girl has found love, and he's given her that special ring, the next thing most girls focus on is the gown!  Every girl dreams of her Cinderella moment on her big day.  The most common saying every bridal stylist hears is, "I want to look like a princess!"  While, princess ball gowns are great for creating a dramatic and romantic effect.  Bridal fashions are beginning to steer in a different direction.  Movies and TV shows such as The Great Gatsby, and Downton Abbey are bringing back the glitz and understated glamour of the 1920's and 1930's.  Even though, gowns are more intricately decorated with lace, beading, and fringe.  Many of the gowns are a slimmer silhouette, forgoing the princess feel and instead introducing a romantic heroine of a Fitzgerald novel.
