The Little White Dress – Bridal Trend

The Little White Dress is coming!  It’s attack onto the fashion market is 3 fold:

Bridal Inspiration from Royalty

• taking bridal inspiration from Kate Middleton and having a second change into dress for the reception;

Cocktail-Inspired Elegance

• the new cocktail inspired little white dress is one of the hot trends in bridal wear in 2012; and

The Demise of the Little Black Dress

• the little black dress has been demoted to the back of the wardrobe and it’s white alternative is here for summer and to stay!

Ideal for Destination Weddings

Now not to forget that I am writing on a destination wedding blog, the short white wedding dress is ideal for those summer weddings in hotter climates including beach and garden weddings. A LWD also has the large benefit of being easier to transport and less problems with creases and steaming at your destination.

Versatile and Timeless

But not matter what your inspiration for the need a LWD in your life – I thought I would give you a browse through my LWD lookbook.  Just like the LBD the correct style to compliment your figure can mean that the LWD can become a timeless favourite in your wardrobe.

I love this dress by Coast, but a long gracious neck and elegant shoulders required.
