Claire Pettibone is known for her ethereal wedding gowns that capture the feminine, romantic spirit and combine it with a bohemian flair for the modern bride.
Her newest collection, Adorned is just as effortlessly charming as
past collections
. Each of the eleven vintage-inspired wedding dresses is especially adorned with subtle elements from exquisite jewels and intricate embroidery to flowing tulle.

How do we adorn ourselves? With clothing, makeup, tattoos, jewelry…every culture, every individual, has different ways of expressing themselves through their personal choices. As I created this collection of wedding dresses, I played with concepts of adornment, incorporating elements of fine jewelry, ribbons, lace, and embroidery.
How do our ideas and traditions relate to the modern bride? There is no single answer, just as there is no one ideal beauty. Truth lies in the cliché that beauty comes from within. The adornments we choose to wear simply bring our essence to light.
