Designer Lela Rose on The Perfect Wedding Dress for Penelope Cruz: “I’ve Already Made it for Her”

I got a chance to visit Lela Rose in her studio during Bridal Fashion Week, and boy did we have fun! We chatted about what’s hot for bridesmaids (non-matching dresses with a common element, like rosettes, for instance), her new line (lookout for gorgeous flowing gowns inspired by water movement), and of course, what celebrity bride-to-bes might wear down the aisle. When I asked her about Penelope Cruz’s upcoming wedding to Javier Bardem and if she thought any of her new gowns might be a good fit, she told me she’d “already made it for her!”. Said gown is The Chalet, a gorgeous silk tulle gown with a beautifully embroidered full skirt, from her new Spring 2010 bridal line. Watch the video to get a sneak peak at the gown (Penelope we hope you’re watching, this dress would look so great on you!) and to see why Rose thinks it’s perfect for the big-screen beauty.
