The Jesus Peiro 2009 Collection
A finish that has been compared to haute couture, is how Jesus Peiro wedding dresses have been described. And this reputation is certainly one on which the company, founded in 1988 in Spain, have built on. The Jesus Peiro brand, pride themselves on setting trends and on satisfying today’s discerning bride.
Their 2009 collection offers elegant gowns of extremely high quality, which will certainly give you the 'wow' from your guests that every bride dreams of.
The collection features dresses tailored in a variety of materials, lace features on a number of the designs mirroring the continued love of vintage this season. I have picked out some of my favourites from the collection.
Dress 9027 is a graceful halter neck gown, with small beautifully crafted buttons, running down the back of the dress, which finishes in a flowing skirt. Other than the buttons at the back, the gown is completely unadorned but this simplicity allows each bride to personalise their look with accessories of their choice.
Staying with clean designs, gown 9053 offers the bride an empire style dress, with a strapless neckline and slim ribbon of material on which a diamante brooch is fixed just under the bust. The skirt falls elegantly to the floor with a train at the back.
If you love lace dresses, number 9098 is particularly pretty, it features a full lace halter neck dress, together with layers of net making up the train at the back of the gown.
But my personal favourite is gown 9076, which has high slash neckline but a deep plunging ‘V’ at the back, it is decorated with a sash at the waist again with an unadorned skirt, which finishes in a small train.

As you scan the gown from the top, you feel a thrill of excitment, and a tingle of awe at the tailored bodice, embroidered trim, satin waistband, flaring tulle and then SUDDENLY...
...the dress is sucked in and trussed up around knee level in a jarring manner that I hope doesn't become the signature look for Autumn 2008. I would hate to see brides throughout 2009 forced into hobbling down the aisle, geisha-esque, in this restricting style. As if trying not to trip up in your shoes wasn't bad enough! These dresses are an exageration of the Trumpet or Mermaid style wedding gown, which is a close fitting, silhouette dress than flares out slightly towards the bottom of the skirt. Trumpet dresses are destined to be hot favourites for 2009 weddings. 
These new variations, however, take the design to the extreme, and give the impression that a perfectly good gowns has been forced into the style, as an afterthought, rather than designed that way from the start. Still, with so many fabulous creations on the runways this year, I think I will forgive them a few eccentricities!
