Bridal Suiting

Suiting is making a comeback in bridal and it’s been a joy to watch. Multiple bridal brands are also beginning to catch the hint by crafting more suits in their collections like David’s Bridal, A.L.C. and Nadine Merabi. And with their new designs comes a plethora of choices to choose from, bridal suiting has gone from a daunting design to an approachable and achievable look to go for on your big day.

Kitten Heels

The kitten heel is quite the controversial shoe, however, for brides, it might be one of the smartest options. Due to its low height, the shoe makes for an extremely practical and easy choice when it comes to prioritizing comfort for your big day. Plus, the shoe within the last few fashion cycles has made a comeback in a major way.

Bubble Skirts

Cowboy Hats

Thanks in huge part to Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter album, we’ve seen a rise in Western fashion influence on the style scene. But more specifically for the bride of today, we’re watching cowboy hats make a return to the heads of many brides. The bold accessory adds character and charisma to your look and definitely assures guests and onlookers that you are absolutely the fashion-forward bride they think you are.

Non-Bridal Dresses

News Flash: Brides are going non-bridal! Instead of running towards the more explicitly bridal style designs, we are seeing a multitude of 2024 and 2025 brides running in the opposite direction; by choosing non-bridal looks, they are opening up their bridal style POV to an entirely new outlook. And by exposing yourself to brands, silhouettes and designs that aren’t traditionally bridal, you allow more freedom for self-expression as you assemble your wedding day look. 

90s Classics

The 90s are always trending for their impact in the fashion and beauty space and for rightful reason; the decades timeless approach to Black beauty is one of one. The simplistic silhouettes that perfectly complimented all figures and the effortfully effortless styling of these looks makes for the perfect addition to your bridal mood board.
