Mini Hemlines, Bow Details, and 3 Other Stunning Wedding-Dress Trends

After more than two years of Zoom weddings and small local gatherings because of the pandemic, wedding dress trends have adapted to large, in-person events that are returning. As a result, bridal trends are no longer pared back and limited to minis or simple silhouettes like slip dresses. Instead, they are now beginning to channel the opulence and glamour traditionally associated with weddings. Bridal designers are adopting a maximalist attitude to meet the moment, crafting extravagant styles that pack allure and drama for brides-to-be.

During New York Bridal Fashion Week, all-over lace cutouts, voluminous gowns, and dramatic trains and veils reigned supreme. The latest bridal designs are as chic as they are grandiose, with intricate details such as floral appliqués, oversize bows, beads, and fringe-adorning veils, bodices, and hems. These sumptuous embellishments prove that the influence of popular period dramas like "Bridgerton" and "The Gilded Age" is clearly visible on the bridal runway. One-shoulder gowns are set to be a favorite silhouette for the forthcoming wedding season, with brands like THEIA introducing asymmetrical silhouettes that incorporate unexpected details like cutouts and gilded embellishments.

In some cases, designers combined two or more of these trends for maximum visual impact. Case in point: Mira Zwillinger's sheer one-shoulder embellished gown is a masterclass in nailing multiple techniques. Elsewhere, some wedding-ready dresses favor short hemlines over conventional ones, notably with THEIA's festive fringe number or Costarellos' off-the-shoulder mini design.

No matter your personal style, today's brides have plenty of inspiration to choose from. Read on for the top six bridal trends from the spring 2023 collections:

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
