Summer Wedding Dress Trends for 2011


Summer is on its way so what should the summer bride be wearing for 2011?
Here are the trends I think our beautiful brides will be wearing this summer. Photographing our brides this summer is going to be so much fun!

The 50’s revival has hit the wedding catwalks this year, with a modern twist. The silhouette is the same but it has a far more sophisticated edge. Prom style skirts, flirty tea and knee length dresses, bring the hem lines up for summer 2011 and look amazing! These dresses are fresh, new and elegant, girlie and pretty. I love this dress by Justine Alexander; it is just so cute, perfect for a relaxed, fun, summer wedding.































Fishtail hem lines are a definite must for the on trend bride this summer 2011. From sophisticated chic to pretty fairy-tale gowns, the fishtail looks sublime! Moving away from the 80’s fishtail style we have seen in the past, this summer 2011; it looks clean and modern; with sweeping hemlines these dresses look beautiful.



























The strongest trend for this summer is texture. Think about alternatives to the traditional lace. Summer 2011 is about Appliqué, ruffles, folds and layering. These soft textures floated down the runway and will make any bride look like she is walking on air. The volume and movement in these stunning gowns look modern and exciting, ideal for a summer wedding and perfect for a bride looking to be an English rose on her wedding day.




























The little white dress! If you have a perfect pair of pins then, bring back the 60’s in your choice of wedding gown for this summer 2011. The mini is back. The simple little white dress is perfectly formed and mixed with this season’s strongest trend of texture it looks completely new.  Chic in style, these dresses are not only perfect for a wedding abroad or for a show stopping city wedding. “So sweet”















I hope this short guide to my hottest trends for summer 2011, helps all you brides out there who still have to purchase that all important gown! I will be back soon with my up-to-the minute tips on autumn bridal wear...I look forward to your ideas and thoughts!
