The pacifying shades of green, violet and lilac colors were widely used in collections of reputed designers in the previous 2009. The new wedding season Spring-Summer 2010 the colors are more flamboyant and contrasting, from the bright red, orange and pink wedding gowns to extremely black dresses which considered to be the color suitable for any occasions but the wedding.

The popular designers seem to boast when using black color in wedding ensembles and launch more collections with wedding dresses with accessories or contrasting back color embroidery and patterns. The designer Vera Wang launched the collection with wedding gowns where apart from the classic white dresses she highlighted the gown of more unique and drastic colors. One of her dresses distinguishes with the tender lemon-green shade while the other perfectly matches the affectionate pink color of the lower skirt with the fluffy skirt of pale green color. A line of Vera Wang dresses is made from fabric of warm off-white and peach colors, and one of the dresses is presented in the drastic black color embroidered with the satin bands and ribbons of the same dark color.

The other American designer, Carolina Herrera, also includes some elements of black color in her collection, though in less harsh manner. The wedding ensembles from Herrera are of traditional white color, though they are decorated with contrasting embroidery and flowery patterns to highlight the contrast of colors. On the top of it, as the auxiliary accessory for the bride, the American designer offers tiny boleros made from the half-sheer black lace or tulle.

The other trendy and contrasting mix is the combination o f the classic white gown with the blood-red accessories apart from the match of white and black. When the bright red wedding dress is thought to be very loud and provocative for the wedding party, the wedding gowns that match these two colors are good to consider. Yet, the dresses of white and red colors are suitable for wedding in spring and summer periods, still making the bride romantic and tender. The dresses like this are offered by the wedding brand Alfred Angelo with models when the classic white upper skirt goes perfectly with the dark-red lower skirts and red inclusions.  

One of the popular wedding colors is the pink color, which is not vulgar or provocative at all. When the pink is expressed in tender and light fabric as silk, tulle and organza when the light-pink creates the image of the princess. Loving pink wedding gowns with classic puffy skirt and dropping down folds from organza and luxury silk is offered by the fashion brand Marchesa in the latest collection. The well-known brand Reem Acra included several ensembles of the tender light-blue shade with the golden embroidery on the hem successfully presented in his latest collection, while Oscar de la Renta created several color accessories to compliment the wedding ensembles like gloves and hats.

On the top of it, the new Spring-Summer collections of the famous designers show the vivid tropic colors, that is orange, yellow and motton blue. For the summer wedding ensemble and for less official functions such shades may appear fairly suitable, when the warm colors go practically with every complexion and the more vivid is the color, the more unique is the style and taste and challenges to go beyond any traditions. However, the unnecessary brightness of the color for wedding dresses is effectively smoothed over with the moderate tailoring.

As a rule, the flamboyant color is the key decoration of the wedding ensemble and there is no need in additional accessories like puffy skirts, decorative ribbons and bands and various embroidery. However, Vera Wong in her Spring-Summer collection of wedding gowns managed to compliment the brightness of the color and splendor of the ensemble. The wedding gowns of intensive green and lemon-yellow shades were expressive with the classic match of the plain top and puffy skirt made from plenty of half-sheer tulle.
