THE WOOL WEDDING DRESS

Wool? For spring?  Come off it I'm hearing you say.  That's because ordinarily when we think wool, we think of coats and suits.  Did you know wool comes in crepe and jersey?  What's more these weaves drape beautifully and are excellent choices for the gown or dress with a more modern feel.  The wool dress is an excellent choice if you're considering re-wearing after the wedding.  Optimal for wedding suits and contemporary brides wool offers a certain sophisticated chic.  Wool is still perfect for winter weddings especially if you don't want that luxurious fabric finish that most silks proffer.
BEST BETS FOR WOOL WEAVES
Crepe-Like silk crepe, wool crepe drapes closely to the body but has more body.  Great look for evening gowns, bridal suits and more structured silhouettes.
Jersey-Like silk jersey, this knit clings to the body.
