Whether you’re attending a wedding or just love looking at pretty dresses, get ready to swoon - because we’re covering the Fall Bridal Trends of 2014. The strapless look of the Brides of the aughts has given way to the Year of Romance in a return to chivalry just in time to enter our Bridal Trends Giveaway & win a $100 Pottery Barn Gift Card!

 

Her Serene Highness, Grace of Monaco Mary Queen of Scots Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge
designed by Helen Rose designed by Monique Lhuillier designed by Sarah Burton

The first trend on our list, Long Lace Sleeves, may be inspired by 3 Royal Brides, namely Grace Kelly (whose fashions will soon be appearing on the big screen in the biopic Grace of Monaco with Nicole Kidman in the title role), Mary Queen of Scots (whose costuming has been burning up the tv screen in the CW's REIGN, and the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton.
Ersa Atelier Winnie Couture Monique Lhuillier

The next trend is The Blushing Bride as all manner of 'think pink' dresses continue in popularity - every shade from fuchsia to peony to powder is available as evidenced by celebrity brides Jessica Biel, Reese Witherspoon, and Kaley Cuoco.  
Vera Wang Monique Lhuillier Oscar de la Renta

The last trend is Sculptural Fabrics and shapes, with the return of duchesse satin that creates a tailored look in contrast to the Boho, unstructured feeling of recent years.  
Pronovias Rosa Clara Theia

I love the Oscar De La Renta Dress. Makes me think of my mother's wedding dress. She was married in 1959, and she was married over 50 years when she passed away in 2009. I think I am going to get married soon and I only wish I was small enough to fit my mothers dress which I have kept. My mother was a really small woman. She was a size 5 and I believe at my smallest I have been a size 12. I unfortunately take after my father who was very tall and large boned.

I love wedding dresses with a fitted bodice with spaghetti straps and a beautiful flowing gown (just no train).

I do love lace and pearls. Such a pretty combination. And while I wouldn't be comfortable in a ball gown, they are so pretty too.

I really like most wedding gowns designed by Vera Wang. I do love the classic A-line gowns best.
