It’s been a while since we checked back on the collection of vintage style wedding dresses at one of our favorite 1920s + 30s inspired online bridal retailers (the reliably swoon-worthy BHLDN) but we took a look over the weekend at some of their newer gowns and WOW. And yay! And wow.
First up, one of the loveliest we’ve seen yet from any of their collections, this is the Jacinda:
YES. This one is a BHLDN exclusive and probably our favorite of the newer gowns. The 1930s blouson look is already a classic, but this version is elevated by that carefully bejeweled illusion neckline, and the romantic covered buttons up the back. Absolutely gorgeous.
Equally lovely is the spare and elegant Alice gown. No frills, no fussiness, just clean lines and pure glamour.

Also lacy, also feminine, also classic is the April gown. With a more fitted silhouette, but a lovely vintage flair, this is another gown that looks absolutely smashing with a sash:
Finally we’d like to highlight the Fantasia gown. We are, admittedly, partial to that flowing Grecian look (as were the ladies of the 1920s!) and this gown is a dreamy embodiment of that classic style:

Sue Wong is a Los Angeles based designer whose 20s-inspired pieces have long been a favorite of art deco obsessed ladies everywhere (including the art deco obsessed lady-proprietor of this blog. Me.) Her bridal collection has some incredible 1920s style wedding dresses, and (bonus) is extremely reasonably priced. Take a look!
Love the architectural look of this Anne Barge gown, pictured here in a 2009 ad campaign. The chevron on the bodice really gives it a classic deco feel, like a dress inspired by the Chrysler Building (plus, bonus: pockets!).
One of our favorite recent bridal trends has been the rise of short sleeve wedding dresses in collections from many of our favorite designers and indie shops. When you’re looking at vintage inspired gowns, until recently your choices were likely going to be limited to a smaller range of sleeve choices. But lately we’re seeing …
If you’re planning a vintage theme wedding (an art deco wedding, a 1920s wedding, a 1930s wedding… basically any beautiful vintage era), then you probably already know about BHLDN, the vintage wedding focused offshoot of Anthropologie. If somehow you’re not already familiar, one glance at their lookbook should be enough to win you over…. They’ve …
