We live in a time of high fashion and pushing boundaries. Left, right and centre, the ordinary bride is taking the plunge by shaking up conventions. For example, the floaty, bohemian dress of 2015 was a bold move for many brides, coming so soon after the form fitting, structured looks of 2013 and the bodices and full skirts of 2014. And 2016 is set to look even more exciting on the bridal fashion front…

This wedding season, brides have been dipping their toes into an even bigger fashion statement – the coloured wedding dress. The white dress has been around for almost two centuries, first debuted by Queen Victoria in her own wedding. However, designers across the world are letting go of the traditional and restricting wedding dress pallet and instead, trying a splash of colour. This article features some beautiful photography by our vendors of brides rocking coloured gowns, as well as some tips and ideas for those of you thinking of taking the plunge!

If you feel most comfortable taking baby steps, then a beige or a blush-coloured gown is the next step up from cream and ivory wedding dresses. Beige and blush dresses often look best constructed of soft fabrics and add a whimsical look to your whole ensemble. Dresses in this colour are gentle on your skin tone. Given the right shade (one lighter or darker than your own skin) anyone can wear a beige or blush dress!

We all fit somewhat into the 4 colour pallets that relate to each of the seasons, but despite the wedding trend of the last two centuries, white isn’t said to suit any of us! The great thing about embracing coloured wedding gowns is that you can choose a dress in a colour that really makes the most of your hair, your eyes and your skin tone! Look up seasonal colour guides to find the right pallet for you.

Adding to the experimentation of the coloured dress, you are also able to play a lot more with patterns and detail this season. Because brides are no longer restricted to white pearl and crystal accents on your dress, you can look around for other things that flatter and intrigue you! Perhaps you love panels in dresses or maybe there is a special fabric you’d love to include. Watercolor patterns on wedding gowns are going to be huge in 2016, so just remember - the options are endless!
