“Think Dior bows,” Barge says. “Very couture, sophisticated, and strategically placed. There’s nothing ‘little girl’ about them.”

“Overskirts have always been a glamorous accessory, but they are definitely on-trend now­—especially when they’re removable, so they provide an easy 2-in-1 to go from the ceremony to dancing at the reception,” Barge says.
