The wedding season goes into full swing after a two-year delayed or simplified “micro” ceremony. One thing is clear: the classic is out and it contains what you want to do.
Also, the 2022 and 2023 collections do not follow some trends, but are full of different silhouettes, details, textures and colors. At New York Bridal Fashion Week in April, designers will see idyllic gowns in blue and blush colors, pant suits in hats, colorful floral patterns, chic mini dresses, romantic barely transparent looks and corsets. Offering a variety of decades of tailor nods from the 1890s wearing a bare 1990s midriff.

“The pandemic has allowed people to spend more time alone, and at the end of the day they realized that their wedding was really for them … all their appointments “Get out of the window,” said stylist Carrie L. Goldberg, a former wedding director at CLG Creative at Harper’s Bazaar, on the phone.

Stephanie White, who directs the dreamy hipster bridal label Odylyne the Ceremony, is drawn to a “more textured” and “non-traditional” silhouette where the bride includes playful notes like oversized shoulders. He said he thinks.
“Rippling frills and long trains are popular these days … and we’ve had a lot of success with these details,” she said in an email.
On the contrary, she added that those who seek simplicity, such as streamlined silk dresses, choose accents such as gloves and headpieces to personalize the look.
Enhanced style
However, the desire for a more incompatible bridal style does not necessarily mean a tendency to lack luxury. In fact, Goldberg sees the opposite.
“I was hoping for a return to regality, drama just because we were indoors for a long time,” she said. “And I think it clearly speaks to the form of how weddings have taken a new direction over the past year and a half.”

Elevated like Seviny, who changed from a gorgeous couture Jean Paul Gaultier gown to a long-sleeved Loewe reception dress, and finally, like a thin Thierry Mugler catsuit designed by Casey Cadwarder. The desire for style has been transformed into multiple outfits, Goldberg said.
She’s also trying to get her hands on bridal, like this season’s haute couture options and a custom golden Schiaparelli dress designed by creative director Daniel Roseberry for her sister’s wedding earlier this month. I’m also excited about the gorgeous runway designers.

At Couture Week in Paris in January, sculptural statements runway from Elie Saab’s vast embroidered fantasy gowns to Victor & Rolf’s wing-like rippling shoulders and Alexima Bille’s visible corset. I was lined up in.
“Fashion and bridal do not have to be in separate worlds.”
Infinite options
According to Goldberg, the days of shopping at bridal superstores are gone and more designers are mixed in.
“There are more options on the market than ever before, and I think designers are far more direct consumers than ever before,” she explained. “I think it used to be all about multi-brand stores. Now that the designer’s flagship store is at the center, designers listen more directly to their clients and answer the phone.”

However, defining your own wedding style can be scary, and more options are more decisions, especially if you can be sucked into the rabbit holes of Instagram and Pinterest wedding references. Means to give. Goldberg recommends more face-to-face research than endless internet browsing.
“Try one dress for all silhouettes and one dress for all fabrics. By looking at these sides individually, you can create the perfect dress,” says the stylist. “First answer your favorite neckline, then sleeves, etc. Then you can start asking for it in a more knowledgeable way as you go from store to store.”

Goldberg also warns against making decisions before trying anything. “It can seem over-prepared, and I think it’s definitely worth considering taking into account the magic of discovery.”
But in an era of endless choices, she added, it’s especially important to stay true to your tastes.
“It’s important to listen to the sensations of yourself and your intestines, not the voices around you.”
