Wedding Dress Trends 2013

Yes it is that time of the year again- that exciting time of the year where the new bridal ranges are being showcased. The 2012 collections were toying with the idea of making tulle centre stage and this year the designers have taken it to another level with tulle everywhere- big tulle skirts and tulle overlays with many layers of ruffles. Chiffon is a very popular fabric but bear in mind this is not an easy fabric to wear as it can be very clingy and shows off everything. The vintage trend is still prominent for 2013 making way for lace gowns but beading and bling seem to be slowly over shadowing it. Separate tops and skirts were seen in many collections allowing the skirts to be fuller while the corsets stay structured. Other popular silhouettes include the more traditional A-Line, Ballgown and Drop Waist. Movement and Texture are everywhere for 2013! The ever popular sweet heart neckline is making way for straight across necklines, straps, halternecks and back embellishments. White is also no longer a must have with more and more designers showcasing coloured gowns.

Long Sleeved Wedding Gowns

This is one of the hottest wedding dress trends for 2012- probably inspired by Kate Middleton's Sarah Burton Gown from last year. I especially love the lace or the sheer fabric sleeves! Would you wear long sleeves on your special day?
