Showcase Your Personal Style With These Unique Wedding Dresses

Your wedding is the perfect opportunity to show off your own unique style. Instead of sticking with a traditional gown, why not try something with a little bit more personality? There are a lot of beautiful options out there that can help you make a one-of-a-kind statement on your wedding day.

Pale Ombre Gowns


If white gowns are too traditional but fully-coloured gowns are a bit too over-the-top, you may want to choose an ombre gown instead. These gowns are typically white or cream coloured on top and fade to a pale colour such as pink, gold or light blue at the bottom. To keep the look light and airy, opt for soft, transparent fabrics such as tulle.

Lattice Netting


For a look that is feminine and delicate, consider choosing a dress that has lattice netting on the sleeves or at the neckline. Typically, this netting is created by sewing beads onto sheer fabric in a lattice pattern, a classic staple of Riki Dalal. It can add beautiful textural interest to the dress while at the same time drawing attention to your face and neckline.

Modern Column Dress


If you prefer a minimalist look, a modern column gown is a great choice. These dresses rely on carefully placed seaming to add structure and to create a sleek silhouette. If you want to give your gown a little bit more pizzazz, you can look for one that has an angled neckline or add a belt for the perfect finishing touch.

Unique Embroidered Patterns


The embroidery on most traditional wedding dresses centres around themes such as flowers or leaves. Another option is to look for a gown that has unique embroidered patterns. For instance, some dresses incorporate geometric shapes rather than floral patterns.

Silk Fringe


Fringe probably isn't something that you would typically associate with a wedding dress. However, it can add a beautiful sense of movement to the gown as you walk down the aisle. To keep it from looking too over the top, stick with a classic shape for your gown. Make sure the fringe itself is well-made and that it is designed out of a high-end material such as silk.

Colourful Gowns


White or cream are the most traditional colours for wedding gowns. There are no rules, however, that says you can't choose a different colour instead. If you are feeling bold, consider choosing a dress in a bright shade such as fuchsia, tangerine or indigo.

Cropped Two-Piece Dresses


Although two-piece wedding dresses have been around for a long time, there is a growing trend to choose dresses that have a short, cropped top, leaving a little bit of the midriff exposed. For something a bit more modest, you can also choose a dress that has a cropped top with a high-waisted skirt. You still get the two-piece look but don't have to worry about your stomach being exposed.

One-Piece Rompers


For a casual wedding, more and more brides are opting for one-piece rompers. Of course, not just any romper will suffice. If you choose a romper for your wedding, you should look for one that is made from lace or that incorporates intricate details.

Ball Gowns With A Twist


Give traditional ball gowns a twist by looking for modern details. Instead of choosing a dress with a traditional top, for instance, look for one that has buttons and a collar. Alternatively, add an eye-catching belt to a ball gown for a unique twist that makes a one-of-a-kind statement.

Asymmetrical Hemlines


If you can't decide between a short wedding dress and a long one, why not choose a dress that falls somewhere in between? Dresses that are short in the front and longer in the back can give you the best of both worlds. These dresses tend to look modern and sophisticated while still being relatively casual.

A Dress Over Trousers


Emma Watson is well-known for her tendency to wear dresses over trousers to create stunning looks on the red carpet. Wedding dress designers have caught on. There are a number of different options on the market that combine a dress and trousers. These unique dress/trouser combinations are perfect for creating a modern look.
