When you're marrying a prince,the pressure is on to find a wedding gown that's royally appropriate but still fashionable. Think modest with a twist. Franziska Balzer most likely kept this in intellect when she married Prince Maximilian zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg of Germany. The bride chose a cream-colored gown with a sheer lace bodice that might have been revealing by a royal's standard, but Franziska made one smart decision: she decided to pair a matching three-quarter-sleeved blazer with her floor-grazing ensemble, and keeping her shoulders and arms covered.
This understated addition is the element of elegance we've reach to expect from princesses like Kate Middleton,who wore a lace-sleeved gown to her own ceremony. Franziska found the perfect marriage between sexy and tasteful with her ladylike cover-up, and it's a trick all brides can borrow for their colossal day.
