We couldn't be happier with the direction of wedding dress trends lately, and the year is already starting off strong, with a crop of collections that will make brides everywhere weak in the knees. The 2016 collection from Rosa Clará is no exception, filled with contrasts and subtleties that emphasize the essence of female beauty. The first of two lines draws inspiration from the full crinoline skirts of the Victorian era, bringing contemporary styling to a classic look. These skirts' lightweight fabrics give them spectacular volume, and combining them with a dazzling range of knit tops and blouses blends formal sophistication with a touch of youthful spontaneity.

The 2nd line draws inspiration from the 1930s and 1940s, and each dress features stunning details like richly-textured embroidered beaded brooches.
