Most brides ask fora traditional cascade -
style bridal bouquet and round colonial bou-
quets for their briddinaids because that's
all they have ever seen, says London florist
Annie O'Connor.
"Most are afraid to try something exotic
or, unusual," and that's a .shane,- says.
O'Connor, who works at Gammage Flowers
Ltd., because there are so Many alter-
native& •
However, the increased demand for
brilliant orange tiget lilies and waxy white
calla lilies suggests that brides' tastes are
becoming a little more exotic.
Theseexotic flowers are more suited to
being hand-held — a look that is gaining
popularity. Put brides can \also .choose to
carry a crescent-shaped bouquet, a single
flower or even a Bible or prayer book
decorated with a cluster of fkmers and rib-
bons.
O'Connor needs to know hair length and
• texture when designing flowers for liati* , so
she can make a corsage light enough in
weight that it doesn't fall out
A bouquet should be designed in direct
• proportion to the ,weight and height' of the
woman who will carry it If the bride is tall,
she should have a longer cascade; vice ver-
sa, if she is short.
If she is daring, the mother or mother-in-
law of the bride might wear an extravagant
over -the -shoulder corsage...But,. if she is
wearing a. material such as silk, Which
•might be stained from a fresh flower, or a
lightweight dress such as g.Won which
might sag from the weight-of/a corsage, she
may prefer flowetrs she can wear in her hair,
pin or tie on her purse, or hold in her hand.
Silk flowers are another alternative ince
they are lightweight and won't stain.

THE WEDDING DRESS of the demure Southern belle is best exemplified here in a gown of
limy lace and Satin ribbons. An asymmetrically ruffled bodice with V-neck land ballgown
sleeves is designed by Michele Piccione for Bridallure. This dream-like creation is com-
pleted with a fun lace skirt, cathedral train trimmed with rows of narrow lace ruffles and
satin ribbons. The look is completed by the bride's large-brimined picture hat, with remov-
able wreath, by Tina Michele.

A bride wearing too much eye makeup
can look like someone gave her a shiner. To
avoid this, most cosmeticians suggest a soft
natural look for the bride on her wedding
day.
Wear deeper, not brighter, colors, they
advise, because the white of thewedding
• dress tends to make the bride's complexion
appear pale. Other steps suggested by pro-
fessionals. • ,•
• Cover prominent shadows under your
eyes, with a concealer one or two tones
lighter than your skin.
• Apply a light cover of foundation over
your entire face, including your lips. It
• should match your natural skin color. For
• oily skin, use a water-based foundation and
for normal to dry skin, use oil based.
• Set the foundation with a dusting of loose
translucent powder. • •
• Add .cheek color. Powder blush lasts
• longer and looks 'more natural. Don't try • ".
contouring as this will be too noticeable in
• yourphotos. . • •• .
• Apply eye color that complements your
blush and lip color. Browns, peaches, -cin-
• namon and dark green eye shadow enhance
• peach blush; pink, plum and grey shadow
complementplum blush. Brown and black
• • mascara give a natural effect, but avoid eye
• liners and iridescent eye shadow because
they are too dramatic. • .
. , • Apply lip col& by outlining lips with a lip
crayon, then' fill them in with a dry lipstick.
Blot off the lipstick, then re -apply it. This
• will make it last longer. ••. •
