You wake up with the sun on your face, a subtle breeze whispers over your body ....and the butterflies in your tummy start to go crazy! Your wedding day has finally arrived and with it the big responsibility to look breathtakingly beautiful. From the wedding dress to the bridesmaids dresses, there are a thousand different styles, with new trends surfacing each year - the choice of dresses is much more complicated than a few years ago. For this reason, Klerksdorp Weddings is featuring this topic, to educate your about choosing a dress style, and also what is hot on the runways now.
Three of the most popular trends currently are:
LACE
An iconic, long-time staple of bridal fashion, lace is trending all over the globe right now. Virtually every international designer's collection features lace. Although lace wedding dresses date back to the 1920's, modern brides are preferring lace to give a vintage touch. Lace on a wedding dress makes the bride look confident and sexy and is super flattering on any body shape if used correctly. It can be the featured fabric, or be used stylishly as highlights over the shoulders, for example.
THE MERMAID
The mermaid silhouette has returned to popularity rapidly. A curvy fit and flare silhouette that flatters your figure in all the right places. This style that has timeless elegance and most mermaid dresses can be altered to be a short cocktail dress after your wedding. The mermaid can look modern and edgy, or timeless and classy.
THE LOW/OPEN BACK
This is one of my favourites! The low/open back is super sexy and makes a bride feel very confident. Although many feel that it is not suited on a wedding dress, I beg to differ. A open back makes for great couple pictures and a designer can have great fun with the detailing on a open back.
