We feature a lot of whimsical, enchanting ballgowns fabulously fitting for the beloved classic princess brides here on feel times. But, how about us fashion-forward women who’d rather seem like ranking people in art & fashion royal families? We’ve predicted extravagance to become a top trend in 2022 wedding fashion.

Ritual Unions

We understand that there’s a bride available who is feverishly trying to find the coolest, black wedding dresses around. What I am going to do is plead towards the fashion-loving gal teetering on the fence over ‘what so-and-so might think’ regarding their black wedding gown. Wear what you would like.

Vagabond Bridal

Walk into any bridal salon and say your bridal keywords “lace, long-sleeves, a-line” and you’ll likely be set up with a lot of really classic ballgowns. Ballgowns which have been in style since Duchess Kate married Prince William. Heck, ballgowns which have been in style…for decades.

The powder blue gown may woo each side. We could view it both ways: a vintage, traditional princess bride who intends to turn heads using the slightest change: a pop of color. Or an avant-garde, fashion-forward bride who would like to surprise her guests using the unexpected: a ballgown.

Markarian

A satin ballgown has all of the makings of a “sweet, princess dress” but two tiny design alterations give this full-skirted gown an awesome-bride update. One, the sharp-lined strapless neckline, by having an unexpected v-neck. And two, the puff sleeves that sit from the shoulder, giving the gown a looser, more laid-back vibe.

E&W Couture

A sexy, strapless bodice, poof hem detail & styled having a rad belt rarely found within the bridal accessory world, this ballgown is perfect for rebellious brides.

A silk taffeta ballgown we truly haven't seen before. A voluminous draped sleeve that falls from the shoulder then tightens for any tailored, high-fashion look. This ballgown is meant to be worn with a fashion-trendsetter and we are able to wait to meet the bride to say "Yes!".
