10 Big Trends From Our New Bridal Range

04 April 2022

By Kristen Daly

The Showpo team is thrilled to launch our new bridal collection, with trend-driven styles for brides, bridesmaids and guests.

It’s always exciting to plan a wedding outfit, whether you’re committing to a classic look or feeling more adventurous. With recent celebrity brides including Ariana Grande, Paris Hilton and Lily Collins providing inspiration, the mood for wedding dresses in 2022/2023 is pared-back elegance - with striking notes of individuality. The key is to honour classic themes from this most cherished genre of dressing up, but with a fun touch of the unexpected.

This approach extends past bridal dresses to other wedding outfits, from bridesmaid dresses and guest looks to attire for pre-wedding soirees like engagement parties. Luxe fabrics and timeless, understated silhouettes are the starting point; from there we're adding trend-driven details like shorter hemlines, pastel tones and shiny sequins.

To help you look your best, we’ve compiled ten irresistible trends for now and the just-in styles that best capture them.

Highlights for Brides

From slip-like dresses to two piece sets, streamlined, body-skimming silhouettes are huge this season. The second or even third bridal outfit is in vogue; consider an elegant wedding gown for your walk down the aisle, and a fun mini dress for the evening reception. We also love traditional details refreshed for now like big bows, high necklines and unique embellishments.

Highlights for Bridesmaids and Guests

There are certain bridesmaid trends that never go out of style, including sumptuous satin fabrics and universally flattering silhouettes like the one-shoulder dress. This season, we deliver those trends but also dial up the luxe with full-length hems and statement detailing. Wedding guests also take note, with many looks to love from pastel slips to sequin numbers.
