FIDM Grad Creates One-of-a-Kind Wedding Gowns
FIDM Fashion Design Grad Deborah La Franchi creates custom couture bridal gowns and bridesmaids dresses for her clientele.
"Color is becoming a very popular thing for wedding gowns," said La Franchi. "The traditional white gown was started by Queen Victoria, but before that, gowns were actually colored. Light blue was the most popular gown because that was the color of purity."
La Franchi's most recent designs include a light pink wedding dress and an ivory gown made from Italian silk, patterned with vegetable dye.
