Be inspired for the year ahead.

Tulle skirts with a fitted waistline are popular for this years brides.
Have any of you seen the latest Hello Mag with the photos of Alex Jones' wedding dress. She had a portrait neckline encrusted with sparkle, a fitted bodice nipped in at the waist with a belt, flowing into a big ball gown skirt with lots of layers of tulle. 

Not everyone suits a high neckline so here we have a sweetheart neckline with a bodice band highlighting a tiny waist. Sleeves can easily be worked with this idea.

Strapless dresses aren't as popular but it is easy to have detachable straps or embellished capes that can be worn at anytime  on your day to give you two looks.

Soft floating fabrics are popular this year worked in A line skirts and can be designed as a detachable train.

And then there is the detail, lace is still a big influence on many bridal dresses. If you love it you can have it all over and if you feel that is too much for you just use it to highlight areas.


For brides that want a less traditional look, two piece ensembles are very popular. Shorter at the front and longer at the back, showing off fabulous shoes is an idea. A hint of colour whether it's for the bride or the bridesmaid.


Box pleats onto a waistband is proving popular in everyday wear and bridal.

I love this longer at the back look. I have just used it for a girls formal dress and she just loved the look and feeling giving her more height and freedom.

A bit of embroidery detail gives everything a personal touch.
