Reem Acra’s New Wedding Dress Collection Is Incredibly Beautiful

Reem Acra‘s spring 2014 bridal collection was titled “Thank You For Your Love” and we were definitely feeling the adoration as we watched it debut on the runway during Bridal Fashion Week. The designer showered us with romance with her undulating and cascading skirts, seductive lace details, sexy draped backs, and the sweetest nothings of all: Embroidered phrases on head and wrist wraps with apropos sayings like “Only You” and “I Do.” Those sweet sentiments also appeared on the showstopping parasols that enveloped gowns in tulle and crystal. “This time I wanted to bring out the sensuality in the bride,” Acra told InStyle.com before the show. “We worked with embellishing the body, rather than making a dress. It’s all about the body, the woman and her sensuality, and making her light, airy, and transparent. It’s all about walking down the aisle with a sensuality, with an emotional power that she has.” Click the photo to see the full collection.

Boho-no! While Kate Hudson is known for her free-spirited bohemian style, she veered onto the all-out glam track lately, and we’re loving it. She packed the most glam of glam wardrobes for her stint in New York to promote her latest film The Reluctant Fundamentalist at the Tribeca Film Festival—outfits that landed her in our Look of the Day section day after day. From left, she’s worn Jenny Packham, Reem Acra, Ann Taylor’s Event Collection, and Michael Kors. Amazing, right? So, what’s the ultimate look of her New York rendezvous?

“It’s one of my more privileged nights,” Sarah Jessica Parker told InStyle.com as she entered the Tiffany & Co. Blue Book Ball, which took place inside a 31-foot-high Tiffany Blue Box covering The Rink at Rockefeller Center to celebrate the jewelry company’s new custom collection inspired by the Jazz Age. And she wasn’t the only one feeling privileged—while she had $497,500 worth of Tiffany jewels accessorizing her vintage Vicky Tiel design, other guests also dressed in Tiffany’s finest, including Kate Hudson (in Reem Acra), Michelle Williams, Jessica Biel, Carey Mulligan (in Victoria Beckham), and Gwyneth Paltrow (in Ralph Lauren). The gorgeous gals were just a few of the 400 guests who, once inside the blue box, were treated to a ’20s-style supper club—which brought the newly-unveiled Great Gatsby-inspired windows to life—complete with big-band jazz performances and a serenade by Smash star Megan Hilty, who fittingly performed the night’s anthem, “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend.” And anywhere you turned—Tiffany blue could be found. “I love the color, it’s one of my favorites,” Paltrow said of the celebrated hue of the evening. “It’s so optimistic and it’s perfect. I think it’s so beautiful.” Click the photo for more.
