The New Year is just around the corner, and for many couples, this is the time when significant others build up the courage to pop the question. After this huge moment, brides will have a nearly unlimited amount of bridal gown styles to sift through, but many will opt for fashion-forward designs instead of traditional garb.
There have been myriad bridal gown styles that have graced fashion runways all over the world throughout 2013, and they will certainly inform the dress choices of brides throughout 2014.
Hottest Bridal Dress Trends for 2014
Here are a few of the hottest styles that ladies can look forward to wearing in the coming year.
Sleek and modern
The “less is more” philosophy has been consistent in interior design and fashion for much of the decade, and this style could be ideal for a bride looking for a no frills approach, suggests Brides.com. With sleek lines, minimal embellishments and streamlined materials, this is a great option for brides who want to play up an eye-catching accessory or a stunning headpiece.
Wedding dress minis
Ladies who want to skip the long trail and utilize a dress that will be comfortable all night long will be enamored with wedding dress minis, which come in sizes ranging from tea-length to just above the knee, reports FabSugar. These dresses are ideal for fall and spring weddings and are a fabulous choice for brides looking to showcase their shoes as focal points.
Cover-ups and jackets
Brides who are planning for winter weddings will have to take a few liberties to stay comfortable on their wedding day, and luckily cover-ups and jackets have become trendy, fashion-forward looks. A simple bolero can go a long way toward warming a traditional look, while embroidered jackets can pair beautifully with matching accessories and other wedding dress embellishments.
