Floral? For Spring? Groundbreaking. With Spring/Summer collections being released left, right and centre, we're seeing an uptick in the bridal industry's favourite Spring/Summer dress detail, and that's florals! Be it appliqués, beading, embroidery or painted fabric; there's a dress out there for every bride in love with the botanical look.
You may be worried that a patterned dress can wear the bride as opposed to vice versa, but not every garden party gown has to look like you've been shot with a confetti cannon full of lace blooms! In recent years, we've seen designers like Hermione De Paula playing with beadwork to create intricate botanical prints that aren't necessarily your standard roses and peonies, incorporating tropical leaves for a more delicate and readable design.
Floral wedding gowns are becoming one of our favourite styles for brides who want to up the romance factor on their special day—taking inspiration from fairytale princesses to bring a sense of whimsy and magic to their walk down the aisle.
