Kelly Faetanini's Signature Style

With attention to intricate details, Kelly Faetenini's chic twist on timeless silhouettes deliver delightful designs that speak for themselves. Her ombre effect has become one of her signature design features. An all-over pink or blue wedding dress may be a little bold for most brides, but her ombre design techniques, such as ivory fading to blush, creates a unique look that is not overwhelming for the aisle. From classic silhouettes to sleek styles, Faetenini provides traditional wedding dresses with the option to customize based on size grading and personal preferences, and to add a detachable train or removable bolero for sleeves.
