Whether your theme is Rustic Chic, Modern Gatsby or Vintage Glam, a touch of feminine whimsy is never out of place. Adding a feminine and whimsical detail à la flirty flounces, airy ruffles and delicate ribbon ties creates looks that are simultaneously modern and charming. Our Colette Little White Dress, pictured above, is perfect for a festive and fun Rehearsal Dinner—just add balloons. Pair with strappy Stuart Weitzman stilettos and Jet jewelry for a chic modern look equally perfect for a bridal shower or cocktail hour.
The chic plunge V neckline is mirrored in the dramatic open back plunge while a floaty, flirty flounce gives this modern little white dress an undeniably feminine flair. Did we mention we love dresses that are first dance worthy? Ooh la la, imagine the stunning pictures of the beautiful bride as she is twirled around during the first dance while her dress gracefully twirls along.

Wondering how to find your perfect fit in wedding gowns? Typically wedding dress sizes can be different from regular clothing sizes. Wedding dress sizing often follows its own set of sizing charts, and may differ from one bridal designer or brand to another. Wedding dress sizes often run smaller than regular clothing sizes, meaning that a bride may need to choose a wedding dress size that is larger than her usual size.
