How Bridal Dresses have Evolved Over the Years

If you have loved the breathtaking backless jumpsuit of the famous singer Solange Knowles on her wedding day, and simultaneously have adored the boho-floral number of Poppy Delevigne's, you probably know these wedding outfits do not conform to the conventional standards of bridal dresses. In fact, what constitutes bridal wear in the recent times is gradually morphed over the years. Bridal outfits lately are a true reflection of brides’ desire, personality, and unavoidably sheer grace. They drip elegance in every bit, and this is why they are suitable for any bride, whether she has a traditionalist soul or a fashionable spirit.

Ivory Wedding Outfit

Though ivory is one of the most popular shades of wedding outfits, it was not an age-old concept. Rather the vintage brides looked for a bit of colour in the bridal dresses. Ivory arrived as a mainstream shade only after Queen Victoria decided it. Ivory reflects an impeccable white, which encapsulates a hopeful, romantic nostalgia. According to the leading bridal outfit designers’, it comes with a transformative effect. True, that the wedding dresses have changed galore in order to tune with fashion and society over the centuries, but what have arrived as ivory wedding dress reflects style, panache, and grace at an equal elan.

The Colour Riot

While ivory is so quintessentially a bridal shade colourful outfits are still gracing the runway. Many brides choose to tie the knot wearing another colour, it’s still considered daring and rebellious. But, if you’re not too obsessed about the deep-dyed wedding outfit of the singer Gwen Stefani or the bright pink of the actress Anne Hathaway, Bianco Evento brings you graceful cream and champagne, both of which are brides’ favourite, mostly due to its subdued tone and matte finish. No wonder, the beautiful arrangement of lace, chiffon, tulle on these pastel shades look effervescently gorgeous, yet pretty elegant. This year, when we were working on our spring collection, we decided to use the spring hues into our dresses, without making them so amazingly ostentatious. The idea is to transform the subdued hues into something graceful and gorgeous.

“Over the centuries, brides who were interested in fashion have often got married in different colours. And they would wear them many times afterwards, altering them over the years to fit in with fashion, or to fit a changing figure.” At Bianco Evento, we make sure that the brides can wear their wedding outfit in formal occasions even after the wedding is over.

Tea-length Wedding Outfit

With the passage of time, tea-length designs became undeniably popular. While it became a forever favourite of the career -centric women, brides from all walks of life have started falling for it. Beautiful one-off tea-length gowns also make a great wedding outfit for years. Women wearing these beautiful, rich, and amazing outfits look irresistibly gorgeous. “That was not a garment that could be altered for another occasion”- say famous bridal outfit designer Ehrman

According to the famous bridal dress designer, Jenny Packham agrees. “The most memorable wedding outfits for me are those that define an era from a fashion perspective,” she says. “Bianca Jagger in that white suit, Audrey Hepburn in a mini dress and head scarf.”

What influences Our Design Diary?

If you are wondering what’s that one thing that influences Bianco Evento’s wardrobe in the era of evolution, we would certainly say the “custom that rules a bride’s heart”. This is certainly a great source of inspiration. However, the post-war era that was wonderfully decadent and glamorous served us with a wide array of design ideas. We would rather say that it was an era of design explosion that we love to take inspiration from. Today, each of our bridal dresses reflect a rare classic sophistication with grace galore. While being way too contemporary, these dresses rule a traditional soul with equal elan.

Every time, when it comes to wedding outfit, we make sure that the bridal dress we design stands out as a piece of clothing. While working on intricate details, cuts, silhouette, and design, we want to guarantee optimum comfort to the bride as she walks down the aisle.
