2009's Most Beautiful Wedding Gown Trends

For 2009, wedding gown trends will give this year’s brides great choices following years of strapless designs. If you’re into couture, here are the hottest wedding gown trends for the year to fit your personality and style.

1. Crumb-Catcher Bodices

The traditional design of this dress reminds us of Marie Antoinette in all her royal glory. It’s an old-world design that will make raves in bridal fashion.

2. Greek Goddess Columns

The style is reminiscent of the Greek goddesses in mythology. The way the dress softly clings to the soft curves of the bride provides such an alluring vision that will definitely make the groom feel like a Greek god.

3. Asymmetrical / One-Shouldered Styles

These gowns are sexy and sensual. It is an absolute attention-getter as it departs from the usual bare shoulders that we have been accustomed to.

4. Subdued Color Plays

While we have been used to a pure white wedding gown, this year’s style follows Vera Wang’s gowns in light and subdued colors. These can come in warm toasts and charcoals or in champagne and platinum combinations. It may even be highlighted by multicoloured embroidery.

5. The Mini

The traditional full-length gowns are no longer the only option in today’s wedding ensemble. Minis with layers and ruffles are now playing a big part in wedding fashion. These can prove to be the gown that provides mobility for the bride to dance and swing her heart out.
