Spring is the time of year to unveil a new wardrobe and shed a few layers, and wedding dresses are no exception. As this season offers you new patterns, hemlines, and fabrics to choose from, here are five features to look for in a spring wedding dress.
Trend 1: Flowers
Complement a spring garden setting with a floral-embellished dress. From embroidered blossoms to 3-D buds, these nature-inspired elements can provide color to whimsy sheaths and ball gowns alike. Wear an airy A-line dress with floral add-ons on the bodice and waistline, or tone it down with a lightly floral-embellished sweep train for a subtle (yet distinct) spring style.
Trend 2: Preppy Details
If flowers are too feminine, look to preppy details and patterns to evoke the spirit of the season. A gingham ribbon trim or a hint of polka dots could add the perfect finishing touch to an already gorgeous gown. Consider a dress with a pleated bodice or find a patterned sash to wear around your waist.
Trend 3: Sheer Fabrics
For a wedding dress that reflects the spring season, light and airy fabrics are ideal. Think chiffon, charmeuse, and organza. Let a spring breeze wisp your chiffon train as you walk down the aisle, or go for a spaghetti-strap, organic Swiss Dot silk cotton number for an outdoor spring wedding under the trees.
Trend 4: Cashmere Cover-ups
Don't be fooled by all the sunshine. In most parts of the country, nighttime temperatures in the spring can drop into the 50s, especially in March and early April. Instead of a wrap, try a sophisticated cashmere cardigan. Three-quarter sleeves or even a full-length cover-up will keep you warm without distracting from your gown.
Trend 5: Higher Hemlines
Let your legs bask in some of that spring sunlight. With short gowns becoming ever more popular on the bridal runways, we can't think of a better way to show off toned and tanned gams. Find a mini dress that will really show off your figure, or go for a tea-length dress paired with peep-toed heels for a fun and flirty look.
