All you need are some wooden skewers and half-inch-wide strips of paper.

Rococo style wedding dress is coming



The classic style of Rococo is coming back in fashion world. So is the wedding dress. Rococo style becomes the new favorite of wedding dress design. 

Rococo is an artistic style in eighteenth century Paris. It influenced several aspects of the arts including painting, sculpture, architecture, interior design, decoration, literature, music and theatre. Rococo is also referred as Late Baroque. Unlike the more politically-focused Baroque, the Rococo had more playful and often witty artistic themes. 

According to my understanding, if people take Baroque as the symbol of man and power, Rococo is definitely classic representative for woman. So it couldn’t be better that we put some Rococo things into a wedding dress. For example, the romantic ruffles, crowed handmade flowers and delicate laces. Rococo style seems understanding the mind of women. I believe that’s the reason why Rococo wedding dress is so popular recently.
