When it comes time to choose designs for your wedding, few choices have the same immediate impact and “wow” factor as the bride’s dress. But weddings are often planned years or months in advance. So how can you be sure that your dress will be up-to-date when it’s hard to predict the future?

Never fear. 2025 is almost here, and we’ve got the wedding gowns and unique designs you’ll want to pay attention to when shopping for your big day. These five styles will own the scene in 2025 and if you’re looking to get ahead of the trends, you’re in luck.

If you’re a fan of the torso-lengthening look of the dropped-waist wedding gown, this is the year for you. The classic dropped-waist look will be everywhere as brides embrace a proportional look which involves a lengthy bodice that doesn’t fade into the background like with empire trends of years past. Whether you choose a traditional scoop or Basque waist, the dropped look embraces curves, lengthens the torso, and offers a clean silhouette to base the rest of your dress around. 

Loving the Lace

Lace is never out of style, and that rule holds true for 2025. The classic look of lace complements the colors and themes for the upcoming season, and provides the perfect, timeless blend between tradition and style. With lace as part of your gown’s design, you can walk the line between queen and princess: where you own the day, but are there to be celebrated and pampered. 

Glitz, Glam and Shine

Every bride wants to feel special and there’s nothing like a little glitz and glam to sparkle up the big day. Mirror finishes, metallic sequins and other sparkly touches are going to make 2025 a snazzy year. On your night to shine, consider adding the glitter. 

Wedding Gown That Go Back In Time

The past ten years have seen a rise in popularity of historical-themed weddings, embracing the fashion of decades and centuries past. 2025 is no exception as brides go back in time to don dresses from the ‘60s and ‘70s, and even the 1800s. For those who don’t want to go back in time from head to toe, there’s always the option of a touch of style. For example, a Victorian-style bodice with a modern A-line lace skirt works well.

Tea Time for 200

Tea length dresses are often overlooked for weddings, because the unusual length may not say “formal” to everyone. But don’t sleep on tea length gowns for 2025. The quirky mid-shin length means you can play around with skirt thickness and material, because you don’t have to consider how the material will hang on the ground. 

Whether you’re looking for a gown that says tradition or innovation, 2025 promises to be a year that has a little bit of something for everyone in the world of gown design.
