Vera Wang Wedding Dresses

Many a bride has dreamt of her dream wedding dress long before ever meeting her future husband. She wants to look perfect in every way and Vera Wang's creations are the epitome of these fantasies.

As a bride herself in 1989, Wang could not find her own dream gown for her wedding day. Lucky for the people who can afford her designs (including many celebrities), she created her own wedding dress. This event launched a very successful career as a designer that is still gaining momentum today.

Wang's wedding designs include bridesmaids' (referred to as maids on VeraWang.com) dresses that will not be collecting dust in any closet. The maids' dresses are trendy and stylish - your friends will be clamoring to be a part of your wedding party to wear one. The wedding dresses that are available from the various Vera Wang collections are simple, elegant, and sought after.

Her Spring 2007 collection is a modern view of classic. The ivory dress pictured with the empire waist and chiffon ruffles that break away at the knee is what Vera Wang is all about. The overlay is reminiscent of a train but is more airy and free than a heavy train could ever be.

Vera Wang's wedding dresses retail between $4000-$12,000. Most fall below $7000, the higher-end dresses are part of the Vera Wang Luxe Collection.

A Vera Wang wedding dress is not only a luxury for the every day bride but for celebrity ones too. Many have donned one of her dresses on their big day. Some of the lucky gals that anyone would recognize are Jennifer Lopez (to Marc Anthony), Jessica Simpson, Uma Thurman, Sharon Stone, Holly Hunter, and Mariah Carey.

Many celebrities opt for the dresses from the runway collection that cannot be found in the bridal boutiques or a custom-made design. Many would love to buy the beautiful gown worn by their favorite star but in most cases it isn't possible.

Vera Wang has come along way from the first design of her own wedding dress and has branched out into many other areas. You can also purchase these items:

• lingerie
• fine jewelry
• fine papers
• fragrances
• eyewear
• mattresses
• china
• stemware
• home decor
• flatware
• footware

Like all items with the Vera Wang label, you can be assured that they exude quality and luxury.

Vera Wang has recently partnered with Kohl's in order to bring her lines to the everyday women. She has publicly commented that she wants her designs to reach more people, not just the ones that can afford to spend thousands of dollars on a wedding dress.
