Britney Spears Rumored to Wed in Betsey Johnson or Jeremy Scott, Here Are Six Potential Gowns for the Bride-to-Be

Pop princess Britney Spears announced her engagement to Jason Trawick last month, and like any bride, is wasting no time thinking about the most important wedding detail: the dress. And rather than doing something predictable, like a choosing gown by the queen of wedding dress designers Vera Wang, or taking a page out of Kate Middleton's book and rocking a McQueen frock, the Belfast Telegraph is reporting that Ms. Spears is "thinking about asking one of her favourite designers, someone like Betsey Johnson or her friend Jeremy Scott. If it's Jeremy, it'll be more futuristic. If she picks Betsey, it'll still be edgy but more traditional, with a lot of layering." If anything, her unorthodox taste in dress designers makes it clear that Britney wants to make a statement at her wedding. Here are a few pieces from Jeremy and Betsey that might fit the bill for what she's looking for.

Betsey Johnson Fall 2012: Betseymania

Betsey Johnson’s Fall 2012 collection transformed the Beatlemania culture of the early sixties into Betseymania. You can always count on Betsey Johnson for a self-referential theme. This collection mixed sixties staples like houndstooth mini skirts, pageboy hats, and mod prints, with Betsey’s signature prom girl dresses. There were a few neon skirt suits that recalled a Cher Horowitz on acid, which I’m still undecided on. The show closed with a parade of models dressed as scantily clad cheerleaders, marching behind Betsey, her daughter Lulu, and her granddaughter.

Jeremy Scott Fall 2011: Manic Panic

That crazy neon trend from Spring 2011 is running over into Fall 2011. New York's resident designer for the club kids of the aughts, Jeremy Scott, presented a collection yesterday that was all shock and awe. Opening with a red tank reading "Enjoy God" in Coke's signature script with a yellow mini, Scott continued along his rebellious, comedic road for autumn. There was a "Dial a Tee Shirt" tee dress with a real address and phone number, a sequined sports' jersey mini dress, drug-printed separates, and a new take on Superman's classic garb. However, the looks sure to make an impact were the neon pink angora sweaters that add just the touch of pizazz our wardrobes need. The show hit a strange note when a cobalt and orange horizontal striped dress came down the runway, the model holding a faux-fur fox in her hand. Was it a dig aat Prada SS11? Or an homage to the master of tricks?

Betsey Johnson Spring 2012: Lots of T & A

Reasons why Nicki Minaj might’ve felt more at home at Betsey Johnson yesterday than she did at Carolina Herrera: - Her seatmate, the fabulously unconventional Lynn Yaeger (instead of buttoned-up Anna Wintour). - Her blue afro, sure to get the stamp of approval from Johnson, who stocked the gift bags with scented fuchsia hair extensions. - Her song “Fly”, which played as the opening music, and drew a humble laugh from the singer. - And, of course, the clothes. If there’s a designer for Minaj other than, say, The Blonds, it’s Betsey Johnson. Last night, the hip-hop star’s outrageous rainbow ensemble helped her stand out from the audience, but the models? Not so much. Which is kinda great, because as much as we love surprising celebrity show choices, it’s also nice to see fashion week pairings that just make sense.
