Thanks Kate

I, for one, am glad that modesty has made a significant comeback in the world of Bridal Couture. 

Thanks to Kate Middleton for bringing back a resurgence of interest in sleeves, 

higher bodices and dresses that accentuate the waist. These dresses showcase bustlines,  waistlines, and hips in ways that bespeak of mystery rather than revealing too much skin!

Case in point:

In case you don't know...that's Grace Kelley on the left
and Kate Middleton on the right!

See what I mean about some of the lovely offerings available to brides:

Truth of the matter is that there are lots of gorgeous gowns for brides who want to combine
