Curve-hugging silhouettes

Think long sleeves and exquisite lace if you're gunning for a classic look, with flowing skirts that skim gorgeously over your figure. For a touch of sexiness - a plunging neckline that also elongates the torso (like Jennifer Lawrence's romantic engagement dress)

Bridal jumpsuits

8/16

If you're after a fresh take on bridalwear, jumpsuits are an ultra-chic option. This alternative weddingwear trend has been hot for a while now and is picking up on the runways as well as among celebrities and influencers. It also offers the best of both worlds in terms of comfort and contemporary style. A jumpsuit with stiffer fabric offers shape and structure, while a drapey fabric is great if you're after a curve-skimming look. Pay attention to the crotch and back area during fitting - the fabric shouldn't ride or bunch up. And to make it extra aisle-worthy, add a breezy tulle train!
