Wedding gown styles are designed to suit different personal preferences but lately, scrolling through Instagram might make you think that wedding dresses all look more or less the same or at least have something in common creating a new trend.

Fashion designers have a subtle way of controlling our fashion direction year after year and as expected, bridal fashion designers take cue from runaways to create high-style moments just for brides.

Here are the wedding gown styles we’re betting on big for 2018.

1. Cascading Shoulder Bows

You first thought will be- bows on wedding gown styles are nothing new,  and yes, you are right- they’re not. But they did make an appearance in some unexpected places, featured in unexpected ways. We have been seeing them in a new dimension like having them streaming down shoulders—some dangled just to the elbow while others graze the floor. Cascading shoulder bow is a new trend we’re totally into!

2. More Bows!

That’s right. Seems to be a year for bows on wedding gown styles. Sometimes the bows are modern, sometimes edgy, sometimes graceful, but always romantic, the classic knot, fold, and tie are making  lasting impressions everywhere — arms wrapped with bows, backs laced with bows, waists tied with bows; you get the idea.

3. Beaded Fringe Wedding Gown

Fringe is a new fashion trend- well, 2016/2017  ready to wear trend to be precise and it has obviously extended  to bridal wear and we’re lovin’ it!

4. Cold Shoulder

We’ve already shared some off shoulder wedding gowns, and now we are going to tell you about another dress trend similar to that one: cold shoulder wedding gowns. These are like off the shoulder ones but the point is that there’s a sleeve and shoulders are opened, it looks very flirty!

Add an air of magic and mystery to your dress with delicate illusion details.
