The bridal industry is gearing up for a great year. The most important trend in 2019 is giving the stylish bride more choices. There are more wedding gowns being ordered in black than in any recent year. These understated and chic gowns are the definition of elegance and grace.
Choices
It is an exciting year. For every look, there are other options. For example, instead of dressing your bridesmaids in a floor-length gown, consider the ultra-trendy jumpsuit. You can go with modern styles and lovely fabric. Or, you can go retro with prints. The remake of the 1970s jumpsuit becomes elegant when designed Combine with high-heels. Jumpsuits should be tailored to fit each bridesmaid. Loose jumpsuits like the one in the photo above are great for the rehearsal dinner, but not for the wedding. You want long and sleek lines. Hair should be pulled up for the wedding. Long sleeves are a must for this look. Emerald green, sage, violet, and burgundy are trending colors for fall and winter of 2019. The above photo shows the traditional wedding party. The bride is dressed in Ivory and her bridesmaids are dressed in black. But, in 2019, there will be a reversal. Brides are wanting more elegance and charm and they want something different. You will see more brides in black and bridesmaids in ivory, deep colors like royal purple, deep shades of green, or violet. For expert advice, check with the industry leader, Azazie.
Bridesmaid choices
The short dress for bridesmaids are hot this year, but there is a secondary trend that can easily be swapped. Instead of a dress, go with a pencil skirt. Bridesmaids can buy matching tops, or the same tops but in different colors. Soft and shimmering halter tops are perfect for the pencil skirt. With this being said, if you know you want to stick to the idea of your bridesmaids wearing dresses but are not sure what colour to go for, checking out wedding color swatches could make the decision a whole lot easier.
Competing with the royal wedding
Whenever there is a royal wedding, the bridal shops are flooded with requests for dresses that are similar. There are certain rules the royal family must impose. This means a royal wedding must stay within those guidelines. So how do you take your wedding to the next level? You may not have access to a castle, but there are lovely venues with the cathedral look. In most cities, there are chapels which are sometimes rented to couples on particular days. A Royal bride in white is beautiful, no doubt. But a formal wedding, with the bride in a classic style wedding gown in sultry black, is chic and breathtakingly beautiful. A black gown hides physical flaws, meaning you will be gorgeous and comfortable without being bound tightly by undergarments.
