Frocktastrophe!

Caroline Castigliano's Acapulco
This couldn't be further from a frothy concoction, could it? Indeed, it is closer to eveningwear which should suit some very stylish brides out there. We love the shapely silhouette and the gathered skirt and the teeny spaghetti straps. Caroline Castigliano.

Frocktastrophe 16: Barbie princess
We must admit, that even as a small, and utterly delightful, child, we have never wanted to dress like Barbie. Not in her 'streetwear' and certainly not in princess mode. We feel the glittery sequins and swags of this ballgown (and yes, we checked that is a wedding dress and not a prom gown) are too much like her plasticness for our liking. We are also a smidge scared of the enormous butterfly gnawing on her arm. You may to beg to differ and so, go to Mariposa Q15.

This is not the sort of dress we have come to expect from Vera Wang but we are more than happy to be suprised. Is the rich black organza just not delectable? And the swirled neckline and pleated drapes not divine? We assure you we think it is. Vera Wang.
