Fishtail Skirts at Sachin & Babi

A more dramatic take on the mermaid, this silhouette tapers from a form-fitting column in the front to a flounced bustle in the back.

Black Ribbons at Melissa Sweet for David’s Bridal

Tied at the waist or around the neck, black velvet and satin ribbons made a statement on many a dress this year. And yes, statements can be sweet.

All white? Yawn. Muted beiges, warm grays and light tans are the colors to beat this coming season.
