Bridal Trend Predictions

With our NY Market trip just days away, I am crazy excited to preview what the designers have in store for Fall Bridal Fashion, and like always, I CANNOT wait to share with you!!

The trends are certainly pointing in a certain direction, so I know that we can anticipate a few key trends:

-Low Backs-
   This is a style that has captivated ready to wear fashion, and is seamlessly transfers to bridal. The use of lace is a perfect way to utilize this look! Check out some sneak peek shots that both Jim Hjelm Occasions, and Haley Paige for Jim Hjelm Blush have leaked via their twitter accounts.

 -Birdcage Viels-
   In combination with an interesting back; brides are left guessing how they can pair a veil without over shadowing their sassy backsides. The birdcage veil creates the perfect combo. This vintage headpiece is getting a modern facelift with the addition of side comb adornment and unexpected colors.

-Metallics-
   Neutral and neat, this fabric is the perfect choice for a fashion forward bride that isn't afraid to be a little daring.

-Prints-
  Bridesmaids designers have begun to introduce the idea of printed maids, but I predict, (and hope), that this season they take the full plunge. I would love, love, love to see some Ikat designs in
soft washed colors muted, and even
some unexpected palettes.
