Crepe has quickly become the contemporary bridal style that you don't want to miss!
Before we get into the list, let's address the elephant in the room: What exactly is crepe? Crepe isn't so much of a fabric, but rather a treatment. Crepe is often made from silk, but can also be made with wool, cotton, chiffon, synthetic fibers and more! The treatment of crepe fabrics has a crisp and distinct appearance that can be described as: grainy, pebbled, or crinkled. So crepe is all about the texture! And there are so many variations between the thickness of fabrics, and the graininess of the texture.
So why should you be interest in crepe? These styles are timeless, flattering, comfortable, versatile and sometimes even stretchy!
