A new year, a new start. To kick 2018 off right, we’re thrilled to introduce our latest Fall/Winter 2018 Lookbook of wedding dresses to help brides in their search for that one gown that rule them all. Browse through the endless beauties featured in our Lookbook and be pampered by an eclectic mix of textures and colours, and sweet and sexy dresses for your 2018 (or 2019!) wedding.

These are the 18 mesmerising wedding trends you have to look out for in 2018.

1. Illusion Necklines

Illusion necklines are popular among brides because of its romantic yet sensual nature, offering the wearer the option of bearing as much or as little of her décolletage as she wants, and can be paired with any silhouette from ballgowns to mermaid dresses.

2. Princess Silhouettes

Sweet, demure and universally flattering, gowns with a princess A-line silhouette cannot go wrong and will withstand the test of time.

3. Off-shoulder Dresses

Elegant, sweet, romantic and flirtatious all at once, it’s obvious why the off-shoulder trend is here to stay and going strong.

4. Barely-There Dresses

Barely-there dresses are getting increasingly popular amongst brides for its sensual yet romantic and elegant silhouette. The see-through nature of these dresses also allow the lace embellishments on it to pop, drawing attention to the intricacy and details of the lace fabric.

5. Elaborate Patterns

Lace fabric in bold and elaborate patterns are gaining momentum as brides prefer laser-cut standout details that are different from the usual lace floral patterns most wedding gowns favour.

6. Fit for Royalty

Cape-like details and decadent beaded embellishments add a regal touch that’s perfect for a grand occasion such as your wedding.

7. Pastel Shades

Wedding gowns in light pastel shades are great alternatives to the traditional white wedding gown for brides who want to wear a coloured gown for her big day without looking like she’s dressed in an evening gown.

8. Flesh-Toned Gowns

Flesh-toned gowns provide brides with another alternative to the traditional white wedding gown without wearing a coloured gown.

9. Lace

Lace is still the undefeated choice of embellishment for wedding gowns and it’s no wonder. Delicate and romantic, intricate and feminine, lace completes a wedding gown without going over the top with details or trying too hard.

10. Sexy Mermaids

Who doesn’t love a sexy mermaid dress? This figure-hugging silhouette nips and flares at all the right places, exuding an elegant and sophisticated look that is both feminine and sultry at the same time.

11. Thigh-High Slits

One of my favourite wedding trends this season, I love the sexy and flirty thigh-high slit for that shy but come-hither look. Pair this trend with a lace or illusion sleeved bodice for a sweet but coquettish look, or opt for an elegant yet sensual option with a seductive neckline.

12. Sweet and Sultry

Flaunt your sultry side with a deep V-neckline that shows off your beautiful décolletage and tame the sexiness down with a demure silhouette like the princess A-line or dreamy details like delicate lace.

13. Bold Colours

While light pastel shades are perfect for daytime, darker colours are more appropriate for your night time banquet celebrations. Rich and bold, these hues exude a sense of formality and grandeur that is perfect for weddings.

14. Black and White

As modern brides become more open-minded and adventurous, they are more accepting of wearing black for their wedding day. Consider adding some black elements to your white wedding gown without going all black and shocking your elders.

15. Low Back

Low back gowns are perfect alternatives for brides who wish to bare some skin without exposing any cleavage.

16. Modern Simplicity

Gowns with a clean, modern and elegant silhouette can never go wrong. They’re perfect for minimalist brides who prefer a simple dress to one full of details, and never go out of style.

17. Lace Sleeves

Lace sleeved wedding gowns were made popular by the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, when she wore one for her wedding seven years ago. Demure and romantic, lace sleeves add an undeniably feminine touch to any gown.

18. Wintry Accents

Channel the spirit (and chill) of Winter by adding wintry elements such as reflective or silver lace details that resembles the glimmer of snow in the sun, or mimic a fur-rimmed hem with dreamy fabric flower appliqués around the hem of your gown.
