The Hottest 5 Trends for Spring | Mermaid Silhouette

Our next hot trend for spring is the mermaid silhouette. In a nod to the vintage, old Hollywood feel, the mermaid gown is a modern take on a classic look. This is for the bride who has great curves she wants to show off but still wants the fullness of a ball gown. This is a look that adds drama and sophistication to a dress. We have beautiful gowns in our studio that offer this marriage of vintage sophistication and modern glamour. If you’re a bride that is interested in this look, give us a call to set your appointment and we will help you find that perfect look!

The 5 Hottest Spring Trends | Bold Shoulders

In our continuing coverage of the 5 hottest spring trends, we are so excited about this next trend: bold shoulders.

No not the 80’s giant, puffy sleeves. Let’s hope that look NEVER comes back. We’re talking about the great new one-shouldered dresses and the dresses with illusion straps that we saw all over the runways. Many of the one-shouldered designs incorporate a romantic texture, which we talked about in yesterday’s trend report. The illusion strapped dresses feature soft chiffon or tulle straps, some with delicate beadwork and others with soft, billowy ruffles. If you’re a fashion forward bride, ditch the strapless dress and instead opt for a dress with a detailed shoulder!

The 5 Hottest Spring Trends | Texture

This week we are covering the 5 hottest trends for bridal gowns this spring. Today is the second day of our trend forecast and the topic is texture, texture and more texture!

The hottest gowns for spring offer up a heavy dose of romance. From dreamy chiffon to romantic organza and soft tulle, this trend appeals to the goddess in all of us. These fabrics dominated the New York runways this season and have been paired with delicate layers and cascading ruffles to deliver a feeling of ethereal beauty.

When choosing a dress with texture you want to keep the details confined to either the bodice or the skirt. Heavy or ornate details and textures on the skirt should always be balanced with a more simplistic bodice and vice versa. You also want to make sure you choose a dress you can wear, as opposed to a dress that is wearing you. The perfect wedding gown should enhance your existing beauty and not steal the spotlight away from you. Keep these things in mind when selecting your gown and you are sure to walk away with your perfect dress! We have received some amazing gowns this week and our brides are loving them. Don’t wait to find your dress! Appointments are filling up fast as wedding season heats up. We look forward to seeing you soon!
