20 Alternative Wedding Looks

1. Stone Cold Fox dress



2. Naeem Khan separates



3. Jenna Lyons at Solange Knowles' wedding


As some of you may know, my fiancé and I have been engaged for over two years now. We got engaged right before my dad passed away, so the wedding planning got put on the back-burner. It's been hard to think of having a wedding without my dad being around, but we've finally come around to feeling excited about it again and are slowly starting to make plans. With that, of course, comes the search for the perfect wedding look. I've been on the hunt for a more non-traditional wedding look and have really been interested in the idea of pants. These are some of the best alternative looks I've come across so far.

Pre-Fall Favourites

3.1 Philip Lim

Proenza Schouler 

Rag & Bone

Wayne

I'm a big fan of Pre Fall. Designed to be wearable (read saleable), it produces the kind of easy, un-challenging looks you want to wear immediately (albeit with a pair of wooly tights and an extra layer if you're in the northern hemisphere).

The above are a few favourites from the season's offerings so far. All the usual suspects are in there; Lim, Proenza and Rag & Bone, as well as the New York-based Wayne. That snakeskin blazer-meets-bomber is already etched onto my brain....

As ever, the festive period is proving to be a little manic but I promise to share some recent personal shots with you all before Christmas.
