1. Wedding dress trend 2025: Pure minimalism

Simple 90s silhouettes are not only more ubiquitous in our everyday wardrobe - they will also be found in bridal fashion in 2025. And not just in the form of the slip dresses that have been popular for a long time, but in varied, extremely reduced designs that always have a twist – halter neck! Draping! A cape! – wait. To this day, the influence of Meghan Markle can clearly be felt in this trend at her wedding to Prince Harry in 2018, who significantly influenced the trend towards extreme bridal minimalism with both her long-sleeved Givenchy and Stella McCartney wedding dresses.

Corset tops have already celebrated a comeback in fashion in recent years thanks to the revival of the noughties - and are now also conquering the wedding dress trends of 2025. However, this has little to do with Y2K vibes - this new trend actually seems really elegant. The visible corsets have a shaping effect and are often strikingly combined with transparent elements or a dropped waist in the collections.

Whether made of delicate transparent lace or more solid: Long opera gloves have already become established as a bridal accessory in 2024 in addition to the wedding dress trends. In 2025 the hype will be even bigger – and more diverse. We are now seeing more and more short gloves in the collections of wedding dress designers or models that contrast with the delicate wedding dress - be it in strong colors and/or in surprising materials, such as latex. This means that the gloves are still a nice alternative for anyone who wants to give their bridal look a final touch of detail but doesn't feel like wearing a veil.

4. Wedding dress trend 2025: 3-D flowers

Of course, flowers are more than just a part of a wedding. And the wedding dresses now reflect that: It's not delicate embroidery or floral lace that's trending this year, but rather 3D flowers that seem to sprout as exciting details on dresses or veils. The whole thing moves somewhere between romantic and futuristic - and the dresses and veils create an exciting illusion. It always depends on the details, even with the wedding dress.

The waist is often the most emphasized part of wedding dresses - until now. Because now she has competition from our hips. This is exactly what is emphasized in the dropped waist dresses, which creates a no less beautiful silhouette.

For everyone who can't imagine a bridal look without a veil: The most classic of all bridal accessories is of course still in trend! And yet there are now more and more alternatives for all brides who don't want to wear a classic veil. In 2025, one of the latest additions, capes in particular, will dominate the collections of wedding dress designers - from subtle neck scarfs to opulent capes. These are either already integrated into the dresses or can be purchased as an individual add-on (if you want to be a little more covered during the ceremony, for example).

It doesn't always have to be the maxi silhouette! Although it is traditionally firmly anchored as a wedding dress, mini dresses have also been finding their way into the collections of wedding dress designers for several years now, offering an ideal alternative for anyone who wants a little more legroom in their wedding look . It's also ideal as a second dress for a party in the evening - the mini length is guaranteed to make dancing easier.

Vintage lace in an all-over look is clearly celebrating its revival in the 2025 wedding dress trends. With the all-over lace dresses with a figure-hugging cut and long sleeves, we can't help but think of Grace Kelly, who continues to inspire brides all over the world with her elegant wedding look from the 50s to this day - including Princess Kate's wedding dress such as references.

9. Wedding dress trend 2025: Bridal dress alternative
Cedar & Pines
Short Collection
Breaking with tradition will of course continue to be trendy in 2025. After all, the question “Does it really suit me/us?” are always more in the foreground than supposed established musts. It starts with the dress: If you as a bride don't feel like wearing a dress at all, you shouldn't have the feeling that you have to wear one to the wedding. In 2025, the collections of wedding dress designers will once again prove this. They are showing more and more clothing alternatives: be it the already established suits and jumpsuits, but also co-ord sets.
