Last Week I introduced you to Johanna Johnson and her 20’s inspired gowns. This week I wanted to share with you some of her gowns that have sleeves (and you thought I forgot didn’t you ? ). Her bridal gowns are absolutely stunning from the seaming, laces, fabrics and to the rhinestone, beading placement and details.
I honestly cannot get enough, and I’m sure you’ll feel the same way after seeing these.
So, before we leave all of the georgousness of the 1920’s I wanted to share with you these last two dresses. While searching and searching on the net for the 1920’s I happened to stumbbled upon this designer Maison Bellish. Instantly I was drawn to these two 20’s inspired bridal gowns and as you can see, you know why. So if you haven’t seen his beautiful wedding dresses yet. I highly suggest you head over there for yourself and see them.
With that note I hope you enjoyed the many picks and inspirations of the 1920’s that I showed you.
What’s not to love about the flapper inspired bottom of this dress ? Not to mention the flutter slit sleeves soo soo pretty.Beautiful long train and beading on the bodice of this dress are beautiful.
Here is some inspirational looks I put together in keeping with the 1920’s theme. Just remember if your theme is the 20’s. Not everything has to resemble that era 100%. Your focal point is always the the wedding dress so things should always enhance that not take away from it.
Have fun looking at these three looks.
1st Look: I decided to go with these cute t-strap shoes which were a huge trend in the 20’s. The dress does not scream 20’s but it is somewhat lose in the bust and waist which is very much a 20’s style. Art Deco inspired jewelery and purse help to enhance the era and look, along with a heavy lace edged veil that can be worn as a head cap veil.
2nd Look: This wedding dress gives off an Art Deco vibe with it’s interesting seaming/lines which is so often seen in Art Deco of the 20’s. A fun lambs fur ( resembling Ostrich feathers I think) cover-up help to give a flapper vibe (Also great for cold weather). The shoes match the cover-up. (Even though they are not 100% 20’s inspired they tie in nicely because they go well with the feather trend of those times. And again work nicely with the cover-up). The necklace is a longer chained necklace with interesting shapes again like art deco which then help to pull off the beaded purse. Then to finish off the look I included a sparkly head band which is just enough.
3rd Look: This dress is fitted very lose (only giving us maybe a slight hint of curves but not much). I wanted to make the focal point on this dress about the dress and the body jewelery that create Art-Deco lines. The veil is very simple as not to distract from the focal point with just a slight hint of lace. The same simplicity is also in the earrings not to small but not to big just enough. T-strap shoes again. And lastly to add just a little bit of fun,texture and movement to breakup the simplicity of this combination. I choose a flowy feather purse.
Well I better run I hope you enjoyed my looks.

So a 1920’s inspired wedding gown would not be complete without a headpiece to match. I couldn’t just share those gowns without sharing these headpieces and veils that are also so reminiscent of the same era. I might have gotten a little carried away ..hehehe. However, after you see these you’ll feel the same way I did about them.
I hope you enjoy my picks of these pretty veils and headpieces they truly are amazing and pretty with all their detail.
