"Bess Nobel literally designed the gown on me as I
stood there. It's one of my best wedding memories, going to all the
fittings, and choosing every detail of the gown."
Lydia T., Portland, Oregon
Lydia's Dress:
This gown is made out of duchesse
silk satin. The draping in the back adds visual interest to the dress, and
shows off the almost glowing effect of the fabric itself.
Bess hand
applied Swarovski crystals and freshwater pearls over the bodice in a
freeform motif loosely based on a pomegranate design.
