Ballet Wedding Dresses

Shades of blush, grosgrain ribbons, and frothy tulle are nothing new in bridal, but 2022 will see an influx of ballet touches again—from tutu-esque skirts to leotard-like necklines. And it didn’t stop there: Bows and ribbons galore, sheer details, and ballerina-pink palettes that were dreamy yet refined also popped up for 2022. The best looks merge drama with dainty details, gossamer fabrics, and athletic shapes paired with layered ruffles and voluminous skirts.

Short Wedding Dresses

Between elopements, two-part weddings, micro weddings and casual-chic civil ceremonies, the format of weddings has been forever changed by Covid-19. One huge advantage of this is the opportunity for more than one bridal look, which, as you can imagine, we’re very much on board with! Short wedding dresses, otherwise known as the little white dress, were hugely popular in the 1960s, and at intimate civil ceremonies and small weddings throughout the decades. In 2022, we’re expecting to see more short bridal hemlines than ever before, at multi-part weddings, rescheduled evening receptions and intimate celebrations. The best part? A LWD is so versatile, you can rewear it long after the wedding ends!

Two-Piece Wedding Dresses

With a continuing rise in elopements, micro-weddings and casual-chic civil ceremonies, brides are looking away from the traditional gowns to something that better suits their modern, minimalist styling. Elegant and contemporary, two-piece dresses can be easily transformed throughout the day with the addition of an overskirt for the ceremony and a change to trousers to dance the night away at the reception. Their versatility makes for effortless and endless possibilities, and their re-wearability is a major plus for sustainable brides.

Colorful And Embroidered Wedding Dresses

Blush used to be a go to, followed by shades of ginger and champagne, but now, we’re seeing cooler shades of pistachio, dove, lavender, and sky blue in the mix. These soft tones are here to stay for a feminine yet cool take on aisle-appropriate color. In short: you can have fun with fashion and play dress-up, even for moments as epic as your ceremony.

From 3D floral appliqué on mini dresses, to gowns adorned with floral embroidery, and fabrics featuring blossoming prints, there’s a version of this trend to fit every bridal aesthetic.

90s Wedding Dresses

Slip dressing is not new to the world of bridal, but when paired with bomber jackets, body-con cutouts, and a grunge vibe, they’re infinitely more reminiscent of the decade that bought us some of fashion’s greatest moments. Infuse hints of black, and embrace slinky silhouettes, slashes, and slits—this look promises minimalism with an edge, while still giving off an effortlessness aura, perfect for a bride looking to merge romance with throwback rebellion.

High Neckline Wedding Dresses

Whether you’re after a slim fit, an A-line, or a ball gown, these high-neck variations evoke the classicism of Grace Kelly on her wedding day, but with a modern flair. From lace to silk crepe and satin, this conservative-with-a-twist trend proves that regal comes in many forms and does not have to look matronly in the slightest. Up the ante with a long, dramatic, lace-trimmed veil for an even larger impact—but when you do, chose one that still feels romantic and soft, rather than overwhelming.
