Not only brides are the protagonists of the season. You probably are, too, because you might have marked a wedding party in your agenda, or perhaps more than one. Thus returns the desire to get dressed up to go have fun and celebrate love also as a guest. Our advice is to choose a dress that you can wear for other occasions, a model that, even in a few years, will always be fashionable. So here for you are 5 hot trends spotted on the catwalks and on the celebs.
Not your usual midi dress
Blumarine
AC9
ArtDealer
Giambattista Valli
Choose it fluttering, with ruffles. To Carrie Bradshaw, when she fell into the duck pond in Central Park to avoid being kissed by Mr. Big, so to speak. Blumarine and Giambattista Valli proposed the perfect models, with the impalpable skirt that opens sideways with every hip movement. AC9 offers a version with tiny and soft fringes. Beautiful when worn with a sandal with a very thin heel and, perhaps, laced up to the knee.
Coord set
Zimmermann
Nue
Emilia Wickstead
Love Shack Fancy
Valentin Yudashkin
Super stylish the choice to come with a coordinated top and skirt. The trend of the moment, also spotted on the Zimmermann and Valentin Yudashkin catwalks, leaves you total freedom of expression, ranging from asymmetrical sweaters to jeweled models, up to Provence-style or pencil-cut skirts. Either way, yes to a nice bright shoe.
Bridgerton mood
Sister Jane
Erdem
Isabel Marant
The Netflix TV series does not really want to go out of fashion and, together with it, the empire-style dress models. Erdem and Naeem Khan are the examples you need to follow when choosing a flawless Daphne Bridgerton option. And with this dress you can go calmly with a dancer, or barefoot if the wedding is celebrated on the beach, as Courtney Love taught us well in the Nineties.
Go with the cape
Elie Saab
Zara
Solace London
Cape or cape, are the detail of the dress of the moment, reminiscent of the peplum of Ancient Greece. Yes, just a model similar to Meghan Markle's fiery red dress, from the Safiyaa brand, very clicked on the web. Super chic, it is long and well structured. To be worn, strictly, with a décolleté with a vertiginous heel.
Pretty Woman-inspired
Alessandra Rich
Mario Dice
The puff sleeves and the sweetheart neckline are the cult of the season. Add marshmallow colors, some curls and buttons as precious as pearls. And remember how good Julia Roberts was in the 90s cult movie at the horse race, or Kate Middleton in that perfect creation by Alessandra Rich. You just have to choose if you are more of a polka dot team or a squared team, and opt for a bon ton dress but not too silky.
An extra long dress
Alberta Ferretti
Naem Khan
Max Mara
Ottolinger
The classic of weddings, fluttering and extra long, but to be worn very colorful. The choice of the model is up to you, if it is tighter at the waist or wide, if low-cut or more ethereal, if in lurex or with a floral print. And here the shoe can easily be a flat sandal, in leather or jewel.
