While last season's bridal runways were full of outside-the-box ideas for brides, this season calls for a return back to tradition. For Fall 2018, gowns feature bigger ball skirts than ever, the sexy bride has hung up her hat in favor of a more fashion-forward take on sheer and sensuality, and the overtly edgy girl is a bit more cool and confident—without the need for added angst. Long-awaited minimalism is on the rise for an industry often ridden with over-embellishment, and while laces are going nowhere, there are now an array of alternatives to its vintage appeal. We combed the season's runways for what brides-to-be should be shopping for as they plan for Fall 2018 walks down the aisle. Here, the bridal trends you'll be shopping for next season's weddings.
Bianca Jagger’s effortless wedding suit permeated the bridal runways for next season’s wave of edgy aisles. But, rather than feeling angsty or less than ladylike, suits this season felt sweet, gamine and undeniably elegant—perfect for civil ceremonies, after parties, rehearsal dinners and, if you dare, the aisle.
