The 1920s were characterized by some of the sleekest silhouettes around—straight lines, drop waists and tons of sequins. As time went on, however, that crisp simplicity was traded for voluminous shapes, figure-hugging waistbands, full skirts and bold prints. Flapper gowns were retired; no longer the stuff of trends, they became reserved near-exclusively for Halloween costumes and themed parties.
Until the contemporary bridal sphere offered them a kind of rebirth, that is.

2018’s brides have collectively embraced a break from tradition. They’ve opted for practical jumpsuits over conventional gowns, champagne textiles over classic white fabrics. It should come as no surprise, then, that today’s bridal sphere has overwhelmingly embraced vintage design details—trading trends du jour for trends du hier.
The 1920s haven’t just influenced the wedding dress industry—they’ve pervaded it. Midi hemlines are officially a norm, drop waists are commonplace and fringe details are increasingly prevalent. Retro dresses are no longer a kitschy choice to be made by particularly daring brides—they’re available for anyone and everyone who wants to take them for a spin.
The more variety, the merrier. And the 2018 wedding industry is chock-full of variety.
