PARIS Jan 6 (ETX Daily) : Are mermaid gowns or princess-style wedding dresses still the stuff of dreams?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There\u2019s no doubt that women haven\u2019t given up on them, but in these uncertain times \u2013 marked by a pandemic that has lasted for nearly two years \u2013 they also aspire to change, searching for more daring bridal styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is evidenced by a current craze for sexy dresses with suggestive cuts, and even colorful gowns, a world away from the traditional creations you\u2019d usually see walking down the aisle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the wedding fair season gets underway, the specialist platform Mariages.net lifts the veil on the major trends that we\u2019re likely to see at ceremonies this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And it\u2019s clear that traditional wedding dresses are no longer the order of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Coming back in force in ready-to-wear, cutouts will also be seen in wedding attire this year, with dresses cut out on the sides, as well as dresses and skirts with slits or pockets, reflecting a growing interest in sexier cuts and styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But wedding dresses also seem to be getting more extravagant, with a host of details that bring a touch of fantasy, from feathers to frills through transparent effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One thing doesn\u2019t look set to change, however, is brides\u2019 passion for backless cuts \u2013 a must-have that still has a bright future ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The influence of TV shows<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Throughout 2021, fashion has been influenced by hit TV shows, starting with those shown by the streaming giant Netflix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bridal trends are no exception, also seemingly drawing inspiration from certain dramas, including \u201cBridgerton,\u201d which brings pre-Victorian style back to the forefront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As a result, long sleeves will feature among this year\u2019s trends, as well as high necks, swan necks, lace, corsets and voluminous skirts, explains Mariages.net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As for the colours, white and off-white remain the major classics most appreciated by future brides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But in its latest review, Etsy observed a growing interest in patterns and bright colours, again synonymous with this desire to embrace extravagance and boldness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The platform reported a 223% increase in searches for colourful creations for the big day, whether for invitations, table decorations or clothing choices for the bride and groom.Subscribe to our newsletter and get news delivered to your mailbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" PARIS Jan 6 (ETX Daily) : Are mermaid gowns or princess-style wedding dresses still the stuff of dreams?
