If you want to know the main wedding trends of 2022, read the article at the link! And now to wedding dresses - Bridal Fashion Week was held in New York in April, where designers showed new collections of wedding dresses for 2022. We looked through hundreds of models and identified 17 main trends that you should know about. From the colors that cover the outfits to the details embroidered with pearls, all the 2018 trends are worth trying on. We'll tell you in detail.
Dresses with flowers
Each designer showed outfits embroidered with flowers; this is the main trend of 2022. Floral motifs appeared on the catwalks a year ago, but have only now taken them over. Flowers cover the dresses completely, but the design varies: there is multi-colored embroidery, voluminous buds, and individual delicate petals.
Fashionable colors and prints
White classics never go out of fashion, but the creators of wedding decorations do not limit themselves to snow-white outfits. In the new season, they are actively promoting delicate nude tones: milky, cream, powdery, champagne, cappuccino, ivory. Light shades are close to the traditional wedding favorite, but create a completely different mood. The bride in them looks more tender and soft, and the snow-white embroidery or lace pattern covering the pastel base makes the ensemble airy and captivating.
Romantic colored pastels also do not lose ground. Ash blue, pale pink, lilac, mint, peach - the choice depends only on the preferences of the young lady and the characteristics of her appearance.
For women who are ready to completely abandon wedding stereotypes, couturiers offer bright chic. Spectacular red, royal purple, deep blue, noble burgundy, multifaceted marsala, shocking black - any of these shades will help create a breathtaking, extraordinary look. If a girl is not so radical, but is open to experimentation, she is shown models with a gradient. The color can smoothly flow into a light, unobtrusive shade or a bright, rich tone.
Floral motifs predominate in embroidery and appliqués. Barely noticeable or intense, covering the entire dress - they do not limit the choice of brides.
Prints came into wedding fashion last season and do not want to leave it. The main theme of the drawing is still the same floristry. Paintings often resemble delicate watercolor sketches: shades mix, creating a soft, romantic mood. Some products use satin belts at the waist to support the tone of the print - it looks very stylish and expressive.
Lace dresses
Do you think lace is for grandmothers? It's time to reconsider outdated views - designers offer brides dozens of models that do not look like they were pulled out of an ancient chest. Particularly admirable are dresses with the finest knitting:
V-neck
The seductive neckline gives way to a deep V-neckline, which can end just below the bust or reach the waistline.
For girls with an active shoulder girdle, a dress with a spectacular element is the best wedding dress option that wedding fashion 2022 offers.
The V-neck visually reduces the shoulders, and the sporty silhouette becomes more feminine and proportional.
If the bride wants to use this technique, but is embarrassed to go to the altar in too revealing attire, a model with a piquant bodice trimmed with translucent mesh, guipure or lace is suitable. Graceful design will soften the sharp sexuality of the dress, making it more gentle and modest.
The seductive neckline combines incomparably with classic A-line styles, complex multi-layered mini and maxi models, and fitted, tight-fitting clothes. Fashion houses are also introducing cutting-edge dresses that combine sexy necklines with long sheer sleeves embroidered with delicate patterns.
Despite the large area of the naked body, the style does not require large massive decorations. It is better to wear a miniature pendant on a thin long chain - elegant, simple and tasteful.
Wedding capes
Another trend that timidly appeared a year ago and has gained full strength. The wedding cape has turned from a salvation from cool weather into a full-fledged part of the bride’s image. It can be laconic long or short and embroidered with rhinestones:
Lace in a dress
Various lace and openwork dresses continue to be incredibly popular. This is primarily due to the fact that such material is instantly capable of imparting not only romance to an image, but also tenderness and sophistication.
If we talk about the latest trends of this season, lace decoration can be done on the following parts of the dress: corset, skirt, sleeves.
In the case when you want to add a little mystery to the image, you can decorate, for example, the bride’s open back with lace.

Another trend this season, like a year ago, will be dresses made in the Greek style.
Thanks to them, you can successfully correct minor flaws in your figure, and also, if necessary, emphasize its advantages, since a wedding is a day when the bride should look truly perfect and there should not be a single extra or missing detail in her image.
Princess Dresses
Girls dream of such fabulous outfits when they imagine their future wedding. Fluffy skirts, in which you would not be ashamed to appear at a royal ball, are not always comfortable, but these are minor things. Who cares about practicality when a dream comes true:
Wedding minimalism
Simple silhouettes and smooth fabrics will be chosen by brides who love graceful naturalness. Minimalistic does not mean boring, judge for yourself:

Some designers showed outfits embroidered with rhinestones, pearls, sparkles and even fabulous dragonflies. You want to admire such luxury for hours, and then definitely buy:
Pearl
From jewelry for mature ladies, pearls have turned into a remarkable detail of the bride's image. Intricate pearl necklaces, belts and clothing items appeared in the collections of several designers and looked fashionable.
Criteria for choosing an appropriate look for guests
- Consider the wishes of the newlyweds regarding the overall style of the celebration. If, for example, you are invited to a boho-style wedding, then your outfit should also be rich, with a combination of different colors and textures, creating a truly deep look. You should not come in such an outfit to a holiday in Provence/rustic/classic style, because such a guest will divert all attention from the heroes of the occasion to himself.
- Choose the outfit that suits you. Each guest should look unique and striking, while at the same time blending with the overall picture of the day. For greater visibility, it is better for short ladies to wear high-heeled shoes; for plump ones, make sure that the lengthening style, print or color corrects the figure.
- When you receive an invitation to a wedding, the first thing you should look at is the location of the event. If it is unfamiliar, the Internet can help you: it is important to understand how well your image will harmonize with the interior - because in a simple cafe, a luxurious floor-length dress will look ridiculous. In addition, the style of the invitation itself should suggest the general mood of the holiday and its dress code.
- Before you buy a dress for your wedding, find out what the main trends are, what shoes are in fashion and jewelry. Also, to get in on the trend and look modern, check out the season's trendy color palette: you're sure to find shades that suit you.

Trousers
If you are against stereotypes, replace the skirt with trousers. Even they look romantic and feminine this season:
Wedding trouser suits and sets 2022 photos
Despite the huge selection of stunning models of various wedding dresses, the new 2022 women's wedding suits look no worse on lovely ladies. If you want to wear a trouser suit, then in this case you should pay special attention to the style of the trousers: if you have straight legs, then skinny trousers will suit you best, but for curvy figures, designers recommend opting for loose-fitting trousers with slits on the sides , or a skirt-trousers. Naturally, in this option there is no point in wearing a veil; it is better to choose an exquisite hat or an original twig that optimally matches the bride’s stylish hairstyle. Whatever wedding suit you choose, the main “accessory” of your unique and charming image will still be the shine of happy eyes!
Belts
Wide or almost invisible, embroidered with rhinestones or laconic black, belts are designed to emphasize the graceful waists of brides and make outfits memorable.
What to wear to a friend's wedding
The principle in choosing an image is to set off the bride, and in no case overshadow her.
In spring and summer, the most fashionable colors of the season are two colors - Pink Yarrow (essentially a fuchsia color) and Lapis Blue - azure blue.

Black pumps are ideal for this look, but if your height is up to 165 centimeters, it is better to choose nude-colored shoes: they will not only match a dress of any color, but will also visually lengthen your legs. A trendy item looks good with this look: a fur handbag. You can choose another accessory made of fur, this will only add a touch of sophistication to your outfit.
Mixing styles is in fashion, so feel free to wear a leather biker jacket over your dress in the fall for a wedding!
Marsala evening dresses
Rose quartz color outfits
A plain wrap dress will suit the occasion. It especially suits those with a rectangular figure, creating a visual effect of fullness of the hips and chest. It will look no less impressive on a lady with wide hips, medium shoulders and a narrow waist. Ladies with curvy figures should not choose it - folds in the fabric will add volume to problem areas.
A satin dress with a wide black belt creates the effect of a perfect hourglass shape. The white top here is designed to visually enlarge the breasts, and the bright skirt emphasizes the hips. In such an outfit, both a girl with the correct proportions and the owner of a slight curvaceous figure will look sexy and aristocratic.
Cocktail dresses for girls
The same pumps in beige, black or red will go perfectly with these two looks. The main thing is to complement the chosen shoe color with accessories.

20s style and feathers
By this point, you probably realized that wedding dresses 2018 cannot be called boring. They prepared another surprise for us - Art Deco. The twenties of the last century were the time when women finally left the house to fulfill their dreams. They took up sports, started dancing and leading an active social life, which was reflected in their clothes: dresses became shorter and more elegant. The rhinestones, feathers, pearls and geometric patterns that ruled fashion at the time have returned to the New York catwalks:
Closed throat
This season's fashionable wedding dresses continue the previous year's high collar trend. Models at fashion shows parade in clothes whose tops follow the cut of an office shirt or resemble strict golf, decorated with openwork perforations.
Vintage dresses, inspired by the finest Victorian-era dresses, feature long lace sleeves, neat turn-down collars and rows of buttons. Such decoration looks spiritual and poetic - just what a young, chaste young lady needs. Creative designs with stylish stand-up collars made of thick fabric are more suitable for bold and self-confident beauties. A high collar will help highlight the beauty of the neck and fill the look with an aristocratic charm.
The collar looks organically in classic fluffy vestments, elegant trapezoidal, laconic fitted with a straight hem, flirty short dresses. To create a unique, expressive look, you can combine an A-line model with a lace cape that has a small collar and puffy bell sleeves - it will turn out stylish, expensive and noble.
Noticeable sleeves
If you have already chosen a dress with sleeves, let them be unusual - this is the motto that designers followed when presenting new collections. Interesting shapes and original decorations are now the order of the day. The more eccentric the better:
Something blue
According to the old English tradition, the bride's wedding attire should contain something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue, symbolizing fidelity and devotion to her lover. Following the belief, supporters of the snow-white classics wear a colored garter on the leg, underwear with delicate decor, or add a light shade to the bouquet. Fashion designers offer a more radical solution - an elegant blue wedding dress.
The sky color is universal. Pale cold tones reveal the beauty of fair-skinned blondes, a light shade of blue sky advantageously sets off the beauty of red hair, and turquoise and aquamarine suits bright brunettes and brown-haired women incomparably. In addition, blue combines easily and harmoniously with other colors. It can be combined with white, gray, pink, peach, lilac, beige - each option will look light and gentle.
The variety of styles is limitless. Dresses with multi-layered airy tulle skirts reveal the romantic dreaminess of nature. A-line models in a cold pale shade, over which they put on a cover or mantle embroidered with snow-white lace, are an example of noble luxury. Without a cape, such ensembles transform into elegant dresses in a minimalist style - very convenient if the bride wants to change her outfit after the photo shoot and the official part of the event.
Big bows
Bows appeared in last year's collections, but this year they became large and catchy. They are no longer hidden in the folds, but appear in the most noticeable places - the waist, sleeves and back.
Long veil
Our passion for the floor-length veil is limitless, we regularly declare our love for it and, finally, designers have heard it. The ideal symbol of tenderness, femininity and purity will adorn every bride. You can choose a suitable long veil for almost any dress, the image will immediately become sophisticated. If you haven't considered this detail before, think again.
Stunning designer wedding dresses from world brands
Insanely beautiful models of wedding dresses were presented by Viktor & Rolf, Marchesa, Vera Wang, Naeem Khan, Carolina Herrera, Oscar de la Renta, Monique Lhuillier, Sachin & Babi, Christian Siriano, Anne Barge, Elie Saab. Among the new wedding dresses, there are vintage models, products with a laconic cut, eye-catching decor, tight silhouettes, and puffy sleeves. The choice is huge. Royal wedding dresses with long trains fit perfectly. Your wedding photo shoot will be amazing if you choose one of the designer dresses.
Accessories black
Many designers presenting at Bridal Fashion Week decided that 2022 wedding dresses must be black. In our culture, such attire is still associated with anything, but not with a wedding. But black accessories will make the look stylish:
What to wear to a friend's wedding
Before a wedding, a man/boyfriend also faces the question “What to wear to such an event?”
Suits made from natural fabrics, fitted jackets, short trousers are the key to a successful look this fall. Fashionable colors for a men's suit are all shades of gray and dark green. The bravest ones can buy a men's suit in Riverside - bright blue for the occasion .
Men's business suits in fashionable colors
However, a dark brown or black suit will also work great.
Tie or bow tie: to your taste, unless the dress code is specified separately in the invitation.
Stylish men in three-piece suits
You can focus on shoes, which will help with oxfords or derbies.
An equally pressing question: what should a married couple wear to a wedding? The answer is simple: the images must be in harmony with each other. For example, as in the photo:

Parents Kate Middleton, Carol Elizabeth and Michael Francis Middleton:
Experienced couple
Remember: wedding etiquette is against black and white in women's dresses; it is better to emphasize the depth of the image with any of the currently fashionable shades: the same Lapis Blue
, a fuchsia or shade of blue called Island Paradise.
Statement Earrings and Necklaces
Ear studs and thin chains are suggested to be put off until better times, giving preference to large and noticeable jewelry. Such details draw attention to the parts of the body on which they are located, keep this in mind.
Gloves
Undeservedly forgotten gloves and mitts are coming back into fashion. An exquisite accessory that emphasizes the beauty of a woman’s hands should be harmoniously combined with the dress. There are no other rules or restrictions regarding this attribute today. Long, short, and very miniature models that barely cover the wrist are trendy.
The material can also be anything. The most delicate options are made of lace or guipure. They can cover the arms up to the elbow in a fancy pattern or gracefully outline the base of the hand and wrist.
For lovers of extraordinary solutions for weddings – accessories with cut off fingers, embroidered with large stones, as well as black models that form harmonious unions with dresses abounding in black elements.
Laconic satin gloves go well with outfits made from heavy flowing fabrics. Fabric with a pleasant matte sheen does not need additional decor, so they are decorated either with miniature bows or only with their own mysterious shimmer.
