RUNWAY
BRIDAL FALL 2019

At the Fall 2019 collections presented during New York Bridal Fashion Week, the message to brides was loud and clear: BE YOURSELF!

Minimalistic styles, an interest in veils ushered in by Meghan Markle and references to the ‘70s and ‘80s, proved that individualism reigned on this season’s runways. Jumpsuits, fancy bridal suits and track suits continued to turn heads, as well as sweeping sleeve treatments, attached and unattached. Multi-layered skirts and gowns with textured lace appliqués and embroideries were accented with plenty of bows and sparkle. As the dramatic ball gown lightened up with barely a crinoline insight, metallic laces made their return.
