Designer Spotlight: Maggie Sottero

When we think of Maggie Sottero, one word comes to mind: options!

There’s nothing we love more than a designer who appreciates variety. They say that it’s the spice of life for a reason, and that’s especially true in the bridal world! So many gowns fall prey to the bridal stereotype, but we feel that Maggie Sottero always leaves brides with the option to let their personality shine through, no matter what it may be. 

With over 25 gowns in our boutique (and more on the way this fall), it’s safe to say that there’s a Maggie out there fit for any bride! 

Are you looking for a gown with a little sex appeal? Melanie’s (left) sheer’n’sexy illusion back might be the one. If you love lace, soft and romantic Bronwyn (center)  is the perfect choice. Classic, conservative brides might vie for Verity (right), with her full skirt and elegant, simple neckline. 

Perhaps the best thing about Maggie Sottero is the fact that it's an inclusive brand. With plus sizing available, Maggie Sottero understands that every bride deserves to feel beautiful on her big day-- and that’s something we here at Ivory & Beau can definitely get behind. 

Given the diversity of the collection, we’ve got some suggestions for gowns that might fit in perfectly with your vision for your wedding day.

ROMANTIC STROLL THROUGH THE GARDEN

We can only imagine how beautiful Afton, pictured left, would be at a sunset garden wedding. When paired with soft and romantic lace, a low back and off the shoulder sleeves offer a hint of sex appeal. We also love the idea of Tami, pictured right, for an afternoon wedding. This gown is perfect for a tea-party, with its floral lace applique and precious button detailing. 

FAIRYTALES DO COME TRUE

If you’re feeling major princess vibes for your wedding day, gowns like Marianne or Sybil might suit you perfectly! We love gowns like Marianne (left) with a soft pink glow, and Sybil’s (center) full skirt will float down the aisle with you. Dresses like Dylan (right) provide the princess feel with a modern twist-- who can resist a gown with pockets? 

LONG LIVE BOHO-CHIC

Sleeved beauty Mckenzie (left) is something out of a dream; we think this gown would pair perfectly with a coordinating lace veil and a flower crown. Boho brides who are looking for a little compromise might love Roberta (right), who also features illusion lace sleeves and a low back. We think the lace train on this gown really steals the show!

GLITZ AND GLAM

For all those who seek sparkle: Rory (left) might be the one for you. We love how the beaded detail on the straps bleeds seamlessly into the bodice. Another pro? This dress pairs perfectly with almost any jewelry! We adore how delicate Shelby’s (right) flowing skirts are, but we especially love that floral Swarovski detail. Bling bling!
