Trend: Peplums
Fun, flirty, and stylish -- the peplum has made its way from ready-to-wear runways to wedding dresses. A peplum, or short overskirt, is a unique detail that adds a sexy, modern touch to any gown using both structured and softly draped shapes.
High-fashioned and vividly appealing, peplums are a sure way to impress any bride-to-be. Any unique detail added to a waist-defined peplum gown will be high-fashion!
Trend: Color
Great news if white just isn't your color -- because brides now have more opportunity to find a color that's more flattering to their skin tone and body.
Designers are painting their dresses in splashes of bold strokes: smokey reds, sky blues, and bridal blushes. Wearing white isn't the norm anymore, as this season's offset to white invites ivory and color! Ivory gives brides a bigger selection to play dress-up with!
Keep it bridal-approved by sticking to one color theme: one significant color of choice that pops. A bold pop of color will give your dress that modern look while expressing your individuality.
A thin or thick colored sash is a classic way to incorporate color into your gown. If you want to accessorize with flowers, the middle of the flower could be a complementary color to the shade in your gown. With an ivory gown, this look could be quite classic and vintage.
