Let’s face it – many prospective brides planning a spring 2017 wedding will likely have their wedding gowns already, and the idea of a wedding gown “trend” does not exactly sound promising to a bride-to-be. Many hope that their wedding dresses will transcend trends and endure longer than the once-favored puffed sleeves inspired by Princess Diana’s wedding gown from 1981.
And yet, there is no shortage of daring designers and brands that are willing to venture from the traditional white gown, likely in an attempt to keep up with the ever-changing desires of the modern bride. Personalization and distinction are elements that most brides look for when planning a wedding, in fact.
“Personalization was a prevalent theme in 2015, as couples sought ways to customize their destination wedding experience,” according to a Destination Weddings Travel Group trend report for 2016.
Casual, more “down-to-earth” destination wedding concepts were a leading wedding trend, as well.
“Rustic glam is the new shabby chic – couples are embracing this blend as a way to incorporate luxury accents while still maintaining a down-to-earth vibe,” the report states.
As brides certainly plan their dresses around their location, you can bet that 2016 probably saw similar “rustic glam” gowns with “luxury accents.”
In the spirit of wedding season and a brand new year around the corner, here are seven bridal gown trends you can expect to see in 2017.
