Basque waist
A classic waist detail that’s making a big comeback in 2025. Dipping below the natural waistline in a dramatic V-shape (sometimes, splitting at the center), this version of the dropped waist creates a stunning focal point.
The cat eye neckline
This unique cat eye – strapless scoop neck combo by Eva Lendel is technically a type of crumb catcher neckline.
This season, you won’t be able to escape this alluring new take on the sweetheart neckline — the cat eye neckline. The name comes from the pointed edges with an upturned angle, which resemble a pair of cat’s eyes. Some bridal labels also lump the strapless scoop neckline under the same category.
Dripping with crystals
Beaded fringe and decadent embellishments with larger crystals and mirrors achieve the effect of being enrobed in precious gems.
Details In Bloom
In addition to white, ivory and blush, brighter pinks, blue and even black wedding dresses have been having their time in the sun the past few seasons. For something fresh, try floral prints in silk or brocade or colorful 3d detailing.
Elevated Corsetry
Not merely the foundation to give the bodice its nipped waist, hourglass form, the corset itself is the look here.
Beyond Lace
Feathers, layers and fabrics with novel textures make a bold statement in 2025. Oh, and hello again, big ruffle tulle skirts! We missed you for a minute.
Sculpted Waves and Origami Folds
Artistic pleating make waves in the new bridal season.
Bows, bows, bows!
Small ones, large ones, as a highlight, or the even the main event, bows can be both coquettish and elegant. We especially love an unexpected row of them at the back.
The Gloved Look
Extra long detached sleeves and sheer gloves.
