Ever since Ivanka Trump walked down the aisle in a demure wedding dress with lace sleeves, the fashion world has been buzzing about the impact her dress will have on the wedding industry. Sexy gowns and low plunging necklines have been all the rage for the past few years, but modesty looks to be making a comeback. “We’re so used to seeing brides in strapless dresses that Ms. Trump’s gown made a fresh statement,” wrote New York Times fashion critic Cathy Horyn.
Vera Wang, who designed Ivanka’s dress said that her client insisted on being “covering up.” Wang told Horn that she “seized on the chance to do a dress that wasn’t naked and very Hollywood,” and that she hopes Ivanka’s dress will usher in a new trend because, as she says “I’ve been doing strapless dresses for 15 years. It’s tiring.” This is great news for Orthodox brides or anyone else who prefers to keep covered up on their big day!
