Pixton Couture Bridal : reminiscent of Old Hollywood Glamour

I love coming across wedding gown designers who are new to me. There's something special about finding a designer that may not be one of the "everyday" wedding names that you see everywhere in the magazines. I love to see the extra special touches a couture designer adds to her gowns. And, when I was introduced to the Pixton Couture Bridal collection {by designer Kimberly Pixton Millar}, I couldn't wait to have the opportunity to feature them. Today, I've been provided with 4 photos from the current collection. The following is a description of the Pixton Couture Bridal Collection, "the gowns are carefully constructed using luxurious silks and hand-beaded details inspired by vintage jewelry. The body conscious silhouettes keep the collection's modern edge". What do you think? I'm really liking the one directly below with the kimono wrap top - so perfect for a winter wedding.
