The Unexpected Wedding Dress Trend We Can't Get Enough Of
When it comes to wedding dresses, it’s no secret that white and ivory dresses are considered the norm, whether you go with a simple slip dress or a full-blown princess moment. However, if you’re looking to stand out among the sea of brides but don’t want to walk down the aisle in a black (or even light pink) gown like other sartorially adventurous brides-to-be, it might be time to consider the silver wedding gown.
Silver wedding gowns are gaining steam, and they come in every shape, size, and style. A bride looking to pull out all the stops might choose a fully embellished look—a bit of metallic beading goes a long way. If more subtle style is your thing, however, consider opting for light tones of blue or gray with a hint of metallic shine (you’ll get that silver vibe without going totally flashy). Shop our current favorite silver dresses here.
