Bows are back
We can’t decide if it’s Barbiecore or Balletcore but brides have been falling head over heels for bows. This sweet-as-can-be trend has made its mandatory appearance on runways for bridal fashion week. Whether it’s a group of itsy-bitsy dainty bows to an oversized look at my hairbow, bows are still an added touch to watch on every silhouette.

The Mini
Just like the bow the mini still has huge staying power. The 2025 mini is giving brides a flirty option for a ceremony or reception look that will definitely turn heads. From show stopping Swarovski crystals to calm and minimalistic draping and yes the bubble skirt, the designers seemed to intuitively know that brides still want to have fun.

Basque waists
The V-shaped waistline seemed to pop up on more than one occasion with the collections this year with several designers giving brides another option with this small but memorable detail. Shown more often with exposed boning, the curved Basque waistline has come yet again with the fall 2025 collections.

The whimsical bride
Brands like Honor, Halfpenny London, and Claire Pettibone always give a masterclass in crafting looks that transport their brides to a wonderland of romance. This bride wants an added level of uniqueness on their wedding day along with whimsy in the details such as soft billowing fabrics and design nods to the natural world around them.

The secret garden
With beautiful prints and inspiration from floral motifs, dresses that transport to the natural world were on display. Floral embroidery delicately sewn onto silhouettes should be a natural choice for brides who want to bring the magical delight of a springtime garden to their wedding day.

What better way to brighten the ceremony itself than adding a little sequined and metallic glamour to your wedding day look. Brands decided to go all out and make it not just a night to remember but a ceremony to remember too.
