9. Wedding dresses with wispy feathers

Wispy feathers are new and fresh and on a fitted gown look stunning.  Christian Siriano & Naeem Kahn have got it so right, covering the silk in hand stitching wispy feathers from top to bottom. En masse the look is eye catching and adds intrigue to the overall gown.

1o. Botanical detail

Monique L’huillier has certainly taken this trend on board and nailed it. Embellished flowers on full or fitted gowns are a stand out this year. What could be better for a pretty garden wedding at a gorgeous garden wedding venue
