HIGH NECK

Channel your inner royal highness with a Victorian-style gown fit for a modern queen—or a future queen’s sister a la Pippa Middleton, sibling to Catherine the Duchess of Cambridge, who tied the knot over the weekend in a custom Giles Deacon lace wedding gown.

Get the look in neck-to-toe lace by Reem Acra, Pronovias, or Carolina Herrera. Shop Reem Acra and Carolina Herrera Bridal at the Nordstrom Wedding Suite.

OFF THE SHOUlDER 

Take a cue from the go-to trend for street-style stars and show a little shoulder on your big day. Try an exposed-shoulder frock by Sachin & Babi, Rime Arodaky, or Theia. Shop Theia at Ania Collection. 

CHOKERS

For cool-girl wedding style, pair a white or bejeweled ’90s-vibe choker with a lace-inset gown with bishop sleeves by Ti Adora, a shimmering ball gown by Hayley Paige, or a sleek slip dress by Grace Loves Lace. Shop Ti Adora at Ania Collection; shop Hayley Paige at Anna’s Bridal Boutique. 

SLEEVES

From bell to flutter to sheer, sleeves in all shapes, sizes, and fabrics continue to reign supreme on bridal runways. We love Divine Atelier‘s elegant elbow-length sleeves, Hayley Paige‘s ethereal bishop sleeves, and Idan Cohen‘s extra-long lace sleeves. Shop Hayley Paige at Anna’s Bridal Boutique.
