Did Jessica McClintock create the perfect offbeat wedding dresses?

Posted by

After doing a ton of wedding profiles, I started to notice a recent offbeat wedding trend. Apparently, Jessica McClintock has captured the hearts of offbeat brides this past season with her black and white wedding dresses.

With it's dramatic contrast between black and white  and vintage-style lace, it's like a classic wedding dress with a punk-rock edge. And it's easy to see why brides are having a love affair with these dresses. Of course, in true OBB style, each bride who wore this fabulous dress made completely her own…

I first saw the black and white beauty when I profiled this amazing Pigeon Forge wedding

Jenn rocked this dress out with a pair of red cowboy boots a black veil/fascinator and a sexy, bad-ass attitude.

And then, there it was again at a backyard wedding in Wyoming

the happy bride

Jenny customized the heck out of her dress with black lace trim and splashes of color. I'm not exactly sure how she did it, but what I do know is that it's kinda' amazing! And, come on, how many other wedding dresses have been worn on the summit of the Grand Teton!?

Then I saw the funky, spunky short dress at a this Houston, Texas wedding

Shablis accented the dress with two different pairs of shoes (the black and white heels pictured above and maroon chucks and socks) plus the, now infamous, “Don't Panic” button.

And now a sneak peak of a wedding we have yet to profile…

Amber here chose the perfect dress for her black and white damask wedding, did she not? And it looks freaking stunning with a birdcage veil and bright red roses. Plus that necklace makes me wanna DIE like Rachel Zoe.
