Elaborate Wedding Dress Backs

Wedding dresses with elaborate backs are simply stunning. I would not necessarily say it is a new trend because it has been around for years making most of these gowns timeless pieces with beautiful lace cutouts. During the ceremony your back is to your guests the entire time so why not give them something beautiful to look at. You will also get very pretty photographs from all angles on your perfect day.

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.

Wedding Dress Trends 2012

As most already know yesterday I went to the bridal expo at Oakfield Farm and these are the biggest trends I spotted during the fashion show with regards to wedding dresses. Once again this year we are seeing a 1920s influence coming through into wedding gowns with a bit a fringing and dropped waistlines. There also seems to be the thought "the bigger the better" with huge, tulle, full circle skirts. In the past years the tulle used to have a satin or chiffon over but this year designers are leaving the tulle to show through. A popular silhouette was the halter neck but in a contrast, usually translucent fabric and pleats at the neckline were also common. Wedding dress bottoms are also very soft, feminine and flowy- usually with a fishtail- with corsets being more structured. One of the biggest trends seen is a ruffled bottom with each layer being a different fabric. Last year we saw dresses that had removable bottoms to reveal a shorter dress and we saw that again this year. Accessories suprisingly included the traditional veil and upside down or slanted bows on everything.
