Evening Dresses – Marchesa

Dolce Sposa — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 11:10:05 +0000

I love Marchesa. They make some of the most elegant, feminine, sophisticated and stylish evening dresses that have adorned many a red carpet event. Marchesa dresses are made of the most refined fabrics and each dress is a like an exquisite and distinctive piece of art! You won’t go wrong looking to Marchesa for inspiration as you search for the perfect evening dress on your wedding day. Here are some of our favourites Marchesa evening dresses:-

A Marchesa evening dress starts at £3,000 and it can go up depending on how elaborate the dress is. At the moment, we’ve heard rumours that Marchesa will be introducing their own bridal collection. We do not know when this is happening but we have included photos of Colleen McLoughlin’s Marchesa wedding dress that cost an astounding £100,000. This Marchesa bridal gown was custom designed by the talented Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig as a one-off piece. If this dress is anything to go by, let’s all keep our fingers crossed that the rumours are true! (update: this has now been confirmed, see our article on Marchesa wedding dresses)
