The wedding world, which has remained traditional and conservative for years, is changing rapidly. Celebrations for show have long ceased to be fashionable. Lovers are increasingly choosing an unusual place or format of the event, inviting only relatives, arranging an intimate wedding, or even organizing a holiday that is different from those to which we are accustomed. For several years, wedding fashion lagged behind the changes taking place, not wanting to acknowledge them - fluffy princess dresses and white color still reigned on the catwalks. The revolution took place a year ago, when designers showed unusual outfits, and this year it became clear that there was no turning back. Fashionable wedding dresses 2020 have become different: although classic models were shown on the catwalks, much was presented that would have seemed unthinkable just a few years ago. Fashion has rapidly burst into the wedding world, and we will tell you about the main trends in wedding dresses 2022.
Lace and lace flowers
Almost every collection featured dresses fully or partially decorated with lace flowers and other motifs. Here there were the finest weaves on the sleeves or skirt, and noticeable lace that confidently covered the dress completely. If you want such an outfit for yourself, try on as many different models as possible - lace is insidious, sometimes it can unfavorably highlight the flaws of the figure or even the skin.

Volumetric flowers
Incredibly beautiful dresses, decorated with voluminous flowers scattered throughout the outfit, won our hearts. Small flowers in the same shade as the fabric of the outfit or even contrasting embroidery looked great on the catwalks. When choosing a dress like this, keep in mind that such flowers will naturally add volume, so make sure that they are not located where you do not need it at all.

For obese women
Special dresses have been created for chubby girls, allowing them to look like queens at a wedding. Many people know that white color makes you look fat, but designers managed to get around the problem: the color of the dress is not so important if it is decorated correctly.
When choosing a dress, consider your strengths and weaknesses in order to accurately decide on the model. Guided by five color types, we will help you choose a dress:
- For white-faced girls with dark hair and eyes, a snow-white dress with pink or silver accents is suitable.
- An outfit in a fashionable champagne color looks good on women with a beautiful tan and dark hair.
- Milky color, decorated with a green or plum shade, is an excellent choice for “chubby girls” with gray eyes and dark brown hair.
- Your eye color is green and your hair is red? Don't hesitate and buy a cream or light lilac outfit.
- We recommend that blue-eyed blondes look at a white-gray or gray-blue shade.
Now there are so many dresses in stores for every taste and color! The main thing is to understand what you want. Don’t overdo it with decoration, find a “golden mean”, otherwise you will ruin the image.

The reign of satin and silk
Not long ago, satin dresses for brides were almost impossible to find. Times have changed - we expect that next year wedding shops will be bursting with satin dresses.

Playing with fabric textures
When creating wedding dresses 2022, designers had a lot of fun, because Wedding Fashion Week had never seen such experiments with texture: voluminous prints, mesh, pleating, crinkled fabric and even feathers. Will the bride's dress have to be steamed until the day before the ceremony? Forget it, now no one will notice the irregularities:

Option number 4: cape
A cape is always a good addition to a wedding dress. Those who celebrate a wedding in the cold season will be especially comfortable in a cape. Even in the summer, it can be quite cool in the evenings, and therefore, if the holiday is prolonged, it is worth adding warm outerwear to an open dress. And if everyone is already quite fed up with boleros made of swan's down or capes made of white fur, you should choose the most current type of outerwear for 2022 - a cape.
The cape is a bit like a poncho, but has clearly defined shoulders and slits for the arms. As for the wedding cape, it will be more airy, made from light flowing fabrics, and harmonizing in color with the wedding dress itself. If desired or necessary, the cape can be more insulated. If you only need a decorative effect, and not a warming effect, you can use organza, tulle, lace, satin and silk for sewing.
A cape will be a good addition if you are getting married in a church, and the wedding dress itself is quite open. In this case, it is worth using a separate removable cape. Although many designers very successfully included the cape in the dress itself, making it a non-removable element. We noticed such elegant “royal” capes for brides at the shows of Randy Fenoli, Allison Webb, Berta, Marchesa Notte.
Fragility
At the last Bridal Fashion Week, outfits appeared that would ideally highlight the natural tenderness of the bride, while also looking like something unearthly and very fragile. The finest fabrics, string straps and delicate folds captivated us at first sight.

Open shoulders
Dresses with an Angelica neckline or an even deeper corset option outshine all other outfits with their splendor. Of course, because naked women’s shoulders carry mystery and hidden sexuality.
The presence of draperies or the skillful use of lace further intrigues and excites.
As you can see for yourself, the selection of fashionable dresses is not just large, it is huge. Femininity of images and romance of outfits are returning to wedding fashion. More and more collections are appearing with charming models, in which slight touching and unconditional tenderness prevail. Some models even show a retro style, embodied in long sleeves, closed styles, the presence of lace, a veil and the complete absence of even the slightest hint of pretentiousness.
For any figure, you can choose a current dress that will look good and not go against fashion trends.
Pastel colors
Surprisingly, there is much less color in fashionable wedding dresses 2022, and this is precisely muted pastel. Most designers have returned to white and its shades, only Vera Wang and a few other brands continue to compare brides with birds of paradise.

With open back
For brides with an enviable figure, tight wedding dresses with an open back are ideal. Moreover, such an image leaves an unforgettable impression and delight of others; the very appearance of the bride is pleasing to the eye and looks solemn.
Ricky Dahl's collection consists of dresses with a variety of back necklines, which provide a wide choice of models for the most extraordinary and daring brides. Such outfits are complemented with openwork inserts or a deep neckline in the front.
Decorating the back with stones is one of the fashionable solutions used by fashion designers.
Designers suggest decorating the neckline on the back with pearl beads. It looks expensive and stylish.
The illusion of a naked back still attracts attention
Folds
Draperies and folds create an image that you want to linger on, taking a closer look at the intricate outfit. Be sure to take a closer look at them, the trend seems simple, but it is not - nothing makes the image more elegant.

Soft corset
A controversial trend (in our opinion) and here’s why: despite the fact that a soft corset with cups or their imitation was shown in many collections, it adorned only a few models, openly disfiguring the figures of the rest. The main problem was that the cups looked too small compared to the rest of the dress, and were also low enough to leave too much skin exposed on top. As a result, the models' figures looked caricatured and strange. Once you have settled on such an outfit, choose carefully.

Not curvy
The model combines a corset with a bodice and a straight long skirt. The upper part is usually decorated with sequins, beads or rhinestones. A skirt with a laconic structure adds tenderness and elegance to the look. This dress is a great idea for all body types.
For thin girls, we suggest considering an outfit with a straight skirt and an open top. In it you will show off your slender and beautiful figure, while a fluffy dress will make your image fragile and unnatural.
For ladies with curvaceous figures, we advise you to opt for a corset that emphasizes your breasts as much as possible; To hide waist imperfections, choose a high-waisted model. Add some flair: decorate the belt detail with flowers or ribbon. Wearing a bolero or lace jacket will make you feel more comfortable.
Choose an outfit with caution: the wrong style will distort your assets. It is necessary to wear high-heeled shoes to maintain proportionality to the figure. A veil will not go well with a dress that is not full, so choose a simple hairstyle with flowers or a small stylish hat.

Girls who like to attract attention will definitely like this trend, because such an element of a wedding dress will certainly not go unnoticed. Those with a beautiful back are advised to take note.

Small flowers scattered across the dress? Graceful, neat bows? Ha - some people decided, enlarging the flowers and bows tenfold. They look impressive, but they don't suit everyone, drawing attention to where they are, so choose wisely.

Short dresses
In contrast to the previous trend, designers also offered dozens of short wedding dresses, which have ceased to be something unimaginable, but have become a necessity. More and more couples prefer to come to the registry office only to sign documents, and have a celebration later. For such a trip to the registry office, you need a less formal look, so a short dress, simple or with a train, will be just right.
