Check out the most popular wedding dress styles here to find inspiration for your own special day.

Modest Necklines

Solara Lace Waist Maxi Dress White

Solara Dress

This wedding dress style is all about a high neckline. Many brides love this modest look because it exudes refinement and sophistication by elongating your neck and framing your face, but it also puts intricate detailing front and center on the dress. It’s the perfect place for embroidery, lace, and beadwork that draws attention to your upper body. For a truly polished look, pair your high-neck gown with an up-do and classic makeup.

Pearl Accents

While beads have long been popular in wedding dress styles, pearls are taking center stage for 2025 instead! Brides love pearls because they’re practically a gemstone, but instead of overt sparkle, they offer a timeless, elegant aesthetic with a focus on understated luxury. You can expect to see pearled bodices, as well as scattered pearls and pearl strings along veils and skirts.

Slitted Dresses

If you’re a bride that wants to make a bold fashion statement, the slit maxi dress is a wedding dress trend that’s perfect for you! A slit adds a touch of dramatic flair to your dress, shows off your legs for a hint of sultry allure, and allows you to showcase your wedding shoes. You can find wedding dress styles with thigh-high slits, as well as more modest options that only go to the knee.

Long Sleeves

Long sleeves are an enduring wedding dress style that makes the most popular list nearly every year. Long-sleeve dresses offer both modesty and elegance while providing designers a chance to include a few more intricate details in the look. Whether you prefer sheer, fitted sleeves with lace details or billowing peasant sleeves, this type of dress is perfect for cold-weather weddings.

Matte Lace

Passione Tied Bust Lace Maxi Dress White

While traditional bridal lace comes in many forms, including Alencon, Chantilly, and Spanish, you have the option of choosing between glossy threads and matte threads. Many brides love the intricacy and texture of lace but don’t love the high-gloss aesthetic of glossy lace dresses. Instead, they choose to wear a matte material that’s a bit more subtle and feels organic.
