I adore Fashion Week. Every season I pore over the slideshows on New York Magazine's incredibly comprehensive website. I even went to a few shows myself a few years ago!
In honor of this most magnificent event and to inaugurate my Friday Fashionspiration column, I present some of the standouts from the Fall 2010 bridal shows.
Just a note before I proceed: my wedding dress cost $700 and I loved it to bits. So I don't post these dresses as a shopping guide, but as an inspiration guide!
Even though this dress is Badgely Mischka, it reminds me of the Verawesomeness worn by Chelsea on her big day:

I could never have pulled off a Jenny Packham number (I need me some A-line, people!), but I love what she does. Simple silhouettes punctuated by often bedazzled features such as plunging necklines, tiered skirts, and strong shoulders as we see here:

It's no wonder why Monique Lhuillier's gowns are so insanely popular with celebs and big-budgeted brides alike. She is always up to something innovative, yet her designs will stand the test of time. I love how she brings florals into this spectacular number:

Speaking of unexpected, ah Vera. You never cease to leave us in shock and awe:
