Is black a good colour for a wedding dress?
Would you
ever consider following in the footsteps of Sarah Jessica Parker and wear a
black wedding dress?
Finding the
perfect snowy white wedding dress is bound to be something all brides look forward
to ahead of their big day.
But as fans
of Sarah Jessica Parker will know, some people opt for something a little more
sombre for their nuptials. The Sex and
the City star famously donned a black gown for her marriage to Matthew
Broderick and it seems as though the trend could be catching on.
More and
more people are choosing midnight-coloured dresses and many others are adding
touches of black to their ivory frocks with beading or fringing.
Personally,
I am not so sure about this trend. Although black dresses can look glamorous
and sophisticated, I like the idea of wearing a white gown. Maybe I am
a traditionalist or maybe I just think that black is a little formal and dreary
for a wedding.
Would you consider taking a leaf out of Sarah's
book and wearing a black wedding dress for your ceremony? Or would you prefer
to walk down the aisle in the Vivienne Westwood gown she wore in the first Sex
and the City film?
