My admiration for designer Callie Tein’s Modern Trousseau line isn’t news at this point. She is hands down one of my top 5 favorite designers. Season after season I find her gowns to be classic with just a touch of something unique. Flattering silhouettes, perfect fabric choices and and an unbelievable price point (yay for that!). She’s an artist at finding that perfect combination of ingredients for a modern look that won’t leave you dying of embarrassment when you look back at wedding photos in twenty years.
So in putting together this series of favorite dresses, I knew a stop at the Modern Trousseau website was in order. It took me all of 5 seconds to find a winner. I LOOOOOOOVE this dress. And I can tell you from my experience at bridal market in New York two seasons ago, her designs and craftsmanship are even more awe inspiring in person.
Hailey is an ivory, v-neck, mermaid, floor-length gown. I love how this gown manages to be both demure AND sexy at the same time (read: you will not upset grandma!) The curve hugging silhouette + deep v back are tempered by that oh-so-flattering ruched bodice and that sweet, sweet bow that brings the whole look together (not feelin’ the bow? I’m positive you can get this dress without it). Plus let’s not overlook that gorgeous silk satin radiating like a shiny pearl.
Modern Trousseau, you have stolen my heart yet again!
