Cool and elegant wedding fashion

Making preparations for the big day? Antonia Edwards helps you find that perfect gown

'I think for 2012 we’ll see a massive shift away from vintage and back to modern elegance with clean lines, strong cuts, subtle detail and fluted skirts. Stephanie Allin’s ‘Hayworth’ encapsulates this to a tee. I really hope to see some bolder headpieces in statement styles on brides too.'
