“I try to keep the vocabulary interesting,” Vera Wang said about her Fall Winter 2010 2011 Wedding Dresses Collection. “It’s not a formulaic design process. It’s all organic, about feeling it.”
Her jumping off point for inspiration this season was Cecil Beaton’s costuming and art direction for “My Fair Lady,” the 1964 screen adaptation of the musical starring Audrey Hepburn. Juxtapositions of black and white combined with Wang’s stunning sculptural fabric manipulations made this bridal collection feel strikingly new with a sophistication unsurpassed in the current bridal market. She created something that is edgy and new, yet with a kind of romantic touch that even the most classic of brides can appreciate.
“My idea of femininity is an artsy femininity,” explained Wang, “never saccharine or girly. Always sophisticated.”
