THE GAUNTLET

Just look at what Claire Pettibone and Yours Truly are up to this season! Gauntlets---those goth/vintage/edgy hybrids between sleeve and glove. If you're looking for a two-way dress, this concept is ideal. Defined, a gauntlet glove typically extends from the elbow (sometimes all the way to the shoulder) to the wrist, leaving hand and fingers exposed. Often brides love this formality for the ceremony--making the ring exchange a cinch.. As you probably guessed, gauntlets can also be removed come reception time . . . . How are you liking (or disliking) gauntlets?

Typically, not my thing. but, these are gorgeous and very tasteful! I could grow to like them if you are making the gown!

I like the Goth feel to gauntlets, but I'd probably never wear them. These dresses are so romantic though.

I love them! I made a pair myself but haven't had them photographed yet.
