Beautiful dresses in powdered hues from Marchesa Fall/Winter 2011 ready-to-wear collection, inspired by Great Expectations and “Miss Havisham’s endless plight of lost love”. Sounds a little depressing but thankfully, all is not lost as the collection has a number of brilliant red carpet ready gowns like the beautiful tulle ball gown above and the stunning mermaid gown with ruffled skirt in blush, below.

We love this gown with elbow length illusion sleeves. Looks great as a wedding dress!

Lavender tulle + sheer bodice adorned with crystals.

This gown has a modern day Elizabethan feel with its illusion black tulle ruff collar and puff sleeves.
