The patterned wedding gown is making its mark this year. Designers seem particularly smitten with geometric and wave patterns. Often seen hand in hand with sequins, patterns lend a contemporary flair to the most classic style.
Tony Ward has created a very flattering dress that perfectly showcases its geometric patterns. The tone-on-tone sequins not only soften an otherwise busy dress, but their placement accentuates the bride’s shape in all the right places.
Designed with the post-ceremony reception in mind, the short dress was on every runway this year. While some designers have had fun combining different lengths into a single dress, others have cut the skirt just above the knee.
Leg-baring high-slit dresses are among the unforgettable styles of 2016. Several designers have incorporated high slits into their dresses—they add a touch of cheekiness to the simplest of gowns.
Galia Lahav has succeeded in combining the greatest styles of 2016 into this singular, flamboyant dress. This favourite among fashionistas has it all with pearls, an overskirt, and a high slit.
This YolanCris creation showcases the closed neckline with charming bohemian appeal.
While feathers were already prominent in 2015, they continue to be popular with designers this year. They can be a simple way to add embellishment, creating movement in any dress and lending it an air of mischief.
