Lace When you choose Lace as the fabric for your Wedding Dress, you are selecting a fabric which has been used for centuries, either for the whole Dress or as trim

Satin Historically made from Silk, today's Satin Wedding Gowns are most often made of synthetic fibres, however, satin has a high lustre and is glossy and smooth and ideal for Wedding Dresses

Taffeta Originally from Persia, this crisp, smooth plain woven fabric is made from silk or synthetic fibers, and it is considered to be a "high end" fabric and is very popular with modern Brides
