Image of the week: Back interest
Filed under: Theme weddings
"Back interest" refers to the rear of your gown. "Interest", because, though you will see the front and sides of your dress, in most wedding ceremonies, it's the back that the guests see for most of the ceremony. Why not give them something interesting to see?
This can be accomplished any number of ways: a bustle, lacing, beadwork, buttons. We love this example of back interest because this lovely navy Celtic knot is totally in keeping with Cara's renaissance wedding theme. She has taken a standard element of the dress -- back interest -- and made it her own. The hem of her gown is edged in a wide band of navy satin, adding more back interest, and giving the hemline that little extra weight which will allow it to trail behind in an attractive way.
Thanks, Cara, for sharing this picture with us, and showing us how to add a little personalized pizazz to a beautiful gown!
