Continuing with the theme of high contrast, if muted tones are not a part of your wedding color scheme, there are plenty of bright bold colors to choose from this season. Jewel tones are broken up into eye-pleasing blocks of color with clean, modern hemlines, sleek fabrics, and delicate patterns. Graci and Lulla Couture are masters of this delicate balance in children’s formalwear.
