A CLOSER LOOK AT JETT AND SCOUT BY THE LABEL IN A&BÉ BRIDAL STYLEBOOK VOL. 13
‘JETT’ & ‘SCOUT’ by The Label
if you’re new here, you may not know that we’ve designed exclusive wedding dresses that our babes can only shop at a&bé bridal shops or at our sister bridal shops, anna bé bridal boutiques.
that’s exciting news in and of itself, but we’ve got more. we release new styles for our The Label line throughout the year! that means not only do you get to shop unique wedding dresses frequently, but you also get to hop on new trends and fun design elements before most designers' new collections launch.
our two newest The Label bride styles, JETT and SCOUT, dropped a few months ago. they’ve been stealing the hearts of our babes ever since and we have a feeling that their debut in our a&bé stylebook volume 13 that just launched this summer is only going to increase their popularity.
brides looking for a simple wedding dress that’s both relaxed and romantic, feast your eyes on our JETT and SCOUT by The Label wedding dresses!
jett
slip wedding dresses may have started as a bridesmaids' dress trend, but it has quickly captured the hearts of both wedding parties and brides.
easy to style and so incredibly comfortable, we love a slip wedding dress for your walk down the aisle or as a dress change for your wedding reception outfit.
BUYING A SILK SATIN WEDDING DRESS
some things to consider while browsing silk wedding dresses...
simple elegant wedding dress
most slip wedding dresses are going to be made from silk fabrics. our JETT wedding dress is made from a luxurious stretch silk satin material. this sort of fabric is simplistic, not offering much detail or dimension.
brides often gravitate toward silk wedding dresses for their glossy and lustrous appearance. many silk satin wedding dresses have a sophisticated sheen and look luxurious and smooth. though minimalistic, modern silk wedding gowns offer simplicity and sleekness.
cool & comfortable wedding dress
another characteristic of silk wedding gowns is that they typically glide against the skin. silk dresses are arguably one of the comfiest of all wedding dress materials!
silk satin fabrics look soft and also feel buttery. as far as heaviness, silk wedding dresses are incredibly lightweight. since silk satin fabric is so breathable, it’s common to see silk slip gowns as lightweight beach wedding dresses or summer wedding dresses.
fit and flare wedding dress
being soft and breathable also means that silk wedding dresses often lack structure. usually being designed in a silhouette commonly referred to as ‘sheath wedding dresses’, these body-skimming designs don’t typically offer support in the bodice or bust.
JETT is just the opposite as far as structure and shape are concerned. this fitted wedding dress gives brides a good amount of support with its scoop neckline and carefully placed seams. hugging at the hip and flaring out right above the knee, this silk satin fit and flare wedding dress is incredibly figure-flattering.
scout
crepe wedding dresses are a craze we don’t see dying off anytime soon. there’s just something about the quality of crepe material and the versatility of this common wedding dress fabric that has captivated bridal designers and brides alike. our SCOUT dress is made of a quality crepe and the ivory color matches the lace back detail beautifully.
crepe wedding dresses can be found at weddings everywhere, from romantic desert elopements to traditional church ceremonies. whether you’re browsing elegant crepe wedding dresses for your big day or want a second wedding dress for dancing, crepe could be a perfect choice.
BUYING A CREPE WEDDING DRESS
some factors to think over when purchasing a crepe wedding dress…
minimalistic wedding dress
if you’re planning a modern wedding, you’ve more than likely come across crepe wedding dresses while searching for inspiration. unlike silk, crepe has a fine-grained surface that creates less luster. though smooth, the multiple textures crepe comes in offers a wide variety of fabric hands for brides to choose from when shopping for a wedding dress.
hot weather wedding dress
not only is its bumpier surface a clear difference, but so are the moisture-wicking capabilities of crepe fabric. if you’re nervous about sweating in your wedding dress or know the climate of your wedding may cause perspiration, you’ll feel very comfortable in a crepe bridal gown.
fitted wedding dress
crepe is a fantastic fabric for draping and usually provides wonderful shape as well as structure. while the low lace back of the SCOUT dress doesn’t allow for as much support as you might find in crepe dress collections like alyssa kristin and anais anette, brides will still get plenty of coverage and comfort thanks to this design’s square neckline.
if you want a figure-hugging wedding gown that is fuss-free, we highly recommend giving SCOUT, JETT, and other The Label silk satin and crepe looks a try.
