Most Popular Wedding Dress Trends for 2024

Some designers built patterns into their necklines.

Dana Harel’s entire Water Lilies collection was inspired by the flowers, which shined through in the Lily dress.

Floral appliqué covered the gown, creating the intricate neckline. 

Halter necklines are also going to be big in bridal fashion.

KYHA Studios offered an updated version of the halter with its sparkly Aral set.

The top ruched across the bodice, which was covered in sparkles.

Surprisingly, rosettes got a refresh in the season’s wedding gowns.

Ines Di Santo’s latest collection included Motif, a form-fitting gown with oversized rosettes on the neckline. 

Rosettes also appeared as accessories in many lines.

Galia Lahav’s newest work included a rosette neckpiece, coordinating with detailing on the Paloma gown. 

Floral detailing in general seemed to be trendier than ever.

Nearly every designer’s collection included some floral gowns, like this Reem Acra dress that was almost entirely covered in flowers.

Gloves are still having a moment in the wedding world.

Many gloves were designed to coordinate with dresses in designers’ collections and function almost like detachable sleeves, like these sparkly gloves from Watters that pair with the Lucinda dress.

Bodysuits and catsuits were styled under dresses to add dimension.

One of the most interesting trends among the spring 2024 bridal collections was bodysuits paired with dresses, as they gave brides the ability to customize their looks.

For instance, By Watters paired the Sencha Lace Bodysuit with the Muffin mini, taking the simple dress to another level.

Many designers leaned into textured elements that weren’t lace for a memorable bridal look.

Naeem Khan’s entire line was full of textured gowns.

The bodice on this gown was adorned with delicate pearls, while the feathered skirt added a fun element. 

Off-the-shoulder sleeves continue to be a designer favorite.

Every collection Insider saw included off-the-shoulder necklines, and designers seemed to be experimenting with different ways to make the elegant detail work.

One of Galia Lahav’s dresses, the Evelyn, was sheer and puffy, giving the line a romantic feel.

But you could also find dresses where the sheer factor was the main draw.

This long-sleeve, embellished dress from Berta had an entirely sheer base. 

Removable trains also allowed designers to be more playful with texture.

The contrast of the floral appliqué on the Catalina dress from Galia Lahav and the tulle overskirt made the dress feel romantic and fashion-forward.

Overall, cutouts weren’t as popular of a trend this year, though side cutouts still made an appearance at Bridal Fashion Week.

The bridal runways had fewer cutouts on dresses, but when they did, they were elegant side cutouts that added just a hint of sexiness.

For instance, the side cutouts on the Pizzicato dress from Ines Di Santo made it feel high-end.

Simpler gowns with chic details will be in style.

Romona Keveza is known for her simple and elegant gowns, but the subtle embroidery made her dresses stand out this year.

For instance, a heart is etched into the bodice of this dress, and the sheer fabric at the top made it feel modern.

Jumpsuits, sets, and minidresses brides can wear to surrounding wedding events were some of the most fun looks of the season.

The Union Jumpsuit from Justin Alexander could work for a wedding thanks to its floral bodice and off-the-shoulder sleeves, but it would also make sense as a reception ensemble or a rehearsal dinner look.
