Bolero
Many dresses were capped off with short tailored capes and jackets, left open in the front, suggestive of the matador's chaquetilla. Naeem Khan took this trend one step further and designed the torso of one of his dresses in the outline of a bolero jacket and embellished generously with lace embroidery.

Off-the-Shoulder
One of the biggest trends of the season that was spotted in almost every collection was off-the-shoulder sleeves or straps. This typical carefree and sexy Spanish-style look took every possible form on the runway. Whether in a flamenco-style billowing ruffle sleeve or a modest free-flowing drape reminiscent of a Mexican peasant blouse, there were plenty of styles to select from.

Ruffles
Is there anything more feminine than a plethora of cascading ruffles? Not only did ruffles dominate the ready-to-wear shows this season, they were also a huge force in bridal wear. Designers called on the tiered frilly look in many new innovative ways, demonstrating the versatility of this traditional Latin garment topping.

Bold Prints and Color
Bold prints and colors disrupted a sea of white this season, saluting the vibrant and festive culture custom to Latin America. Brides looking to stand out from the crowd would do well to check out the eye-catching floral prints at Alfred Angelo or the fire engine red gowns at Carol Hannah.

Fringe
These decorative toppers were used to garnish particularly festive dresses on the runway. While fringe is seen in many cultures around the globe, it is particularly well known for its customary part in salsa dancewear.

Lace Appliqués and Embroidery
Hand looming, lace, embroidery, braiding and tufting are all well-honed crafts from Latin America that are now expected features of bridal dress collections annually. Many of the dresses shown on runways this season showed a level of craftsmanship worthy of awe.

Beads
Another Latin element designers used to elevate their gowns was beading. Naeem Khan used violet beads to create a bodice littered with colorful florals, while Alon Livné made liberal use of beads, from the trim of his necklines down to the hems.
