Alternatives to a magnificent dress: 10 wedding images

For a long time, the unshakable wedding constants were considered white, puffy lantern sleeves or a skirt (or both), a mermaid's tail hem and a life-long veil. Today, the attitude towards gold standards is much freer. When choosing a wedding attire, you should be guided only by your desires: you can look at the dresses of traditional styles and wedding brands, and make a choice in favor of everyday attire, decorated with just a boutonniere. In order to adapt a universal outfit, there is a rational grain: it will cost less, last longer, and at the wedding you will not be shackled by canon and corset (which is especially important in the summer). This manual is for those who are thinking about an alternative to the classic lush wedding dress.

Off Shoulder Dress and Sneakers

One of the most noticeable trends of the spring-summer season is blouses and dresses with an open shoulder line. Wedding day is an excellent opportunity to try it out for yourself. Perhaps it makes sense to choose a more concise version and use it as a background for bright details: a small veil, a hairpin with shiny stones or a small clutch will do their job. And if the wedding for you is not a reason to sacrifice comfort - choose sandals on a flat sole or even sneakers.

Minimalist dress and mules

White dress has long lost its value as the only correct version of a wedding dress. And yet this color is chosen most often. Why not, but if the soul asks for something completely different, you can choose a low-key option that will not surprise even your descendants, flipping through the family photo album many years later. You can even find a suitable one in a mass-market store - for example, ASOS even has a separate line for such cases. Look only at the composition of the materials so that the holiday does not turn into anguish. Mules on the heel at some point can be changed to similar ones with a flat sole.

Bright jumpsuit

If the traditional wedding elements are not for you, we advise you to bet on the jumpsuit of an unusual color. Golden sandals on a small stable heel will be an excellent complement to it - besides, in ordinary life they will do an excellent service, as they are combined with everything. The jumpsuit has long established itself as an evening dress: it is worn on red carpets and for lush dinners. So why not choose it as an outfit for such an important day for you? It is difficult to think of a thing more convenient for a holiday in the open air.

Pants and dress

Such a stylistic decision, as the combination of trousers with a dress, has long become commonplace, and this summer reminded of itself: it could be noticed among a lot of brands, including Céline and The Row. If the combination of a dress with jeans can seem to many strange and unsuitable for an important day, then the combination of a discreet dress and pants would be an excellent alternative to the ingrained standards of wedding fashion. As a hair decoration, choose headbands or hairpins with artificial flowers - but better with expensive brands. Cheap materials in this case will be visible to the naked eye and can spoil the feeling of the whole image.

Dress combination and shirt

Dress combination is a trend more than a long-playing and, importantly, universal. You can stop the choice on a monochromatic combination of cream palette, but we advise you to pay attention to the bright options. Recent shows demonstrate that the combination dress is easily combined with turtlenecks and T-shirts, but the most popular option is a tandem with a shirt (you can spy on techniques from Gucci, The Row and not only). You can complement the image with comfortable mules and complete with the choker who returned from the same 90s, who will look beautifully out from under the shirt.

Velvet suit

A luxury suit is quite a wedding option for both genders. Stake either on the traditional color - white, or on an unusual fabric - velvet or satin. That's why it's more interesting. If we choose a very smart, alternative, then this one. Deciding on shoes, pay attention to the cut of trousers (and since we rely on originality, do not dwell on the classic version). In the case of flared trousers that visually stretch the silhouette, bring the case to the end and refer to the shoes at least with a small heel.

Sequin skirt and light blouse

Those for whom the wedding is not a sedate and measured event, but a reason for a dashing party, may want to choose shiny fabrics or sequins. So that the image does not turn into a total disco, dilute it with a romantic Victorian blouse made of flying fabric, which you can buy today where not.

Monochrome pants with a blouse and a bright clutch

The most popular and, perhaps, simple way to put an accent is bright shoes or a clutch. The brighter - the better. In the wedding version, you can choose trousers and a blouse of the same tone, in which the main attention will be paid to the form, and supplement them with a neon accessory. We also advise you to look at the popular stable heel, which has recently become a full-fledged alternative to a thin hairpin.

Smart pajamas

To marry in pajamas is quite a step in the spirit of the times, which is not so difficult to decide as it seems (just imagine that you can fall into bed without undressing yourself). Linen style has long consolidated its position in everyday fashion. As for the wedding decisions, there has so far been paid unreasonably little attention. Plain white city pajamas will not cause questions even among progressive parents, but we are not looking for easy ways, so we recommend looking at the bright color scheme and the actual summer floral print. Choose shoes with a flat sole and bright jewelery such as large earrings, chokers or tiaras.

Cossacks and things in Asian style

In the summer, wedding parties are more often held outdoors or just outside the city. So nothing prevents a bride from dressing up as the real queen of a music festival - especially if you have music friends who are ready to give you a festive live. Coarse shoes or trendy Cossacks instead of the usual shoes of candy colors, a cape with a fringe instead of a cardigan, a hairpin instead of a veil - the main relaxation. We are in favor of convenience and ease - all the same you would not want to worry on such a day because of the folds on the dress.
