Justin Alexander have shared a sneaky peek of the new collection - "the style features a sweetheart neckline and lace mermaid silhouette. The lace is over a beaded embroidery to add dimension. Also includes a mandarin sleeveless lace and tulle jacket."





It's only a glimpse, but looks good so far!

What do you think? Do you think that designers will be featuring more lace work in their new collections following the Royal Wedding?

I quite like that, very pretty.

I think there will be a bit more lace about, we've already been to one wedding where the bridesmaids were changed to wearing white at the last minute because of the royal wedding!

Ha ha really?! I suppose it's not really an option that many brides would have considered before the royal wedding. It definitely looks nice though!

Hmmm! With my previous (normally unmentioned!) engagement many years ago I was planning on having a winter wedding with bridesmaids in icy colours, such as winter white and ice blue... I must have been ahead of the trend haha!

Clearly you are the trend setter!

There's a bridal shop a couple doors down from where I work and they seem to have a fair few dresses with similar use of lace. I like it, but I don't think Id choose it for myself.

It bugs me that people are putting the bridesmaids in white just to match the royals, there is a much deeper tradition at the heart of it grr. sorry rant over.

I dont want to look at the new collection i might fall in love with another dress.

I agree!

Mrs B, your dress is the only one that's ever made me douct my own choice!

There are some gorgeous (and very big!) dresses this time around, though I suppose it's no surprise that the black one caught my eye.
My favourite one however, is extremely plain. I must be ill.

I am thankfully still utterly in love with my dress thank heavens lol
