The 10 Wedding Dresses Trends for Spring 2012

10. Illusion Necklines
The trend of illusion necklines is making a strong comeback .

9. Bolero Jackets
For the past 10 years, bolero jackets was a style one usually saw on mother-of-the-bride dresses. Now the look is back. Both Carolina Herrera and Oscar de la Renta featured lacey, floral bolero jackets in their latest collections.

8. Lingerie-Inspired Bustiers
Some wedding dresses have gotten increasingly sexier over the last couple of years, and the style of lingerie-inspired bustiers is continuing that trend. This level of sex appeal looks befitting of the very best London escort which might be why Monique Lhuillier featured this look strongly in her collection.

7. Optional Ornate Belts
Brides have been wearing colorful sashes and belts with their dress for years, but lately the belts have gotten more elaborate. Anne Barge’s 2012 Spring collection was full of gorgeous optional belts that were adorned with pearls, Swarovski crystals and flower petals. You can wear your dress with or without a belt for 2 different looks.

6. Blush Wedding Dresses
While white will never go out of style, adding a touch of color doesn’t hurt. Dresses in soft, subtle blush hues took over the runway. From Monique Lhuillier -who dresses Reese Witherspoon in blush for her wedding- to Vera Wang, these dresses are all about making a subtle statement.

5. Cap Sleeves
Another jab to the strapless wedding dress trend is the return of sleeves; cap sleeves, that is. Based on recent runway shows, designers such as Watters and Alvina Valenta are bringing the look back.

4. Large Floral Details
Floral-inspired dresses keep growing in momentum, but lately the flowers seem to be getting larger and larger. Lazaro and Rivini both had designs in their latest collection that boasted large flowers that created a bold, dramatic look.

3. Chantilly and Alencon Laces
Your mother might have been decked in lace for her wedding dress, but now the trend is making a powerful surge back. Celebrity brides such as Ivanka Trump and Nicole Richie both chose lacey looks for their wedding day, and designers like Romona Keveza used it heavily in her collection.

2. Light Silk Fabrics Such as Taffeta and Organza
Light fabrics, such as tulle and organza, are making a huge splash this year. Some recent examples include Christos and LianCarlo’s 2012 Spring collection.

1. Crinkle Chiffon Skirts
Wedding dress designers Ines di Santo and Jenny Lee to name a few all featured gorgeous trendsetting designs with crinkle chiffon skirts, creating a new, bold look.
