When you make an in-shop appointment at BHLDN, you can expect a curated collection of gorgeous gowns and guidance from friendly, experienced stylists—the perfect set up for a day to remember. But if you’re obsessed with scoring one of their iconic looks and not near a BHLDN shop, you can still get some ridiculously on-point remote styling assistance. Anthropologie’s beloved wedding dress destination provides a complimentary online styling service to make shopping easier when you’re far from a store. Their expert stylists offer advice on choosing your gown, accessorizing your look, dressing your bridal party, and much more. TG, too, because not being near a store should hardly shut down your shopping potential!
In any case, since it’s February, and love is still in the air #valentinesvibesallmonthlong, we chatted up one of BHLDN’s online stylists for thoughts on some of the brand’s most romantic, swoon-worthy gown trends for every bride-to-be.
Note, you don’t need to be getting married in a particularly amorous or fairytale-esque locale to rock an enchanting ensem, either. As long as you have ❤️ in your heart, you can find a home in any one of these romantic silhouettes.
5 trends to look for if romance is influencing your fashion radar
Elegant off-the-shoulder necklines
Classic, timeless and oh-so-flattering, this iconic neckline pairs beautifully with a structured bodice and full, voluminous skirt. A bare décolletage sets the stage for a necklace or fabulous statement earrings— the perfect place to layer on your special heirloom piece or ‘something new.’
Ariel’s picks for the aisle:
Delicate beading that glimmers under candlelight
In search of a true showstopper? Opt for glamorous allover sparkle—after all, it’s your day to shine! From dense, shimmering crystals to glowing moonstone and pearls, elaborate embellishments and intricate beading are having a major moment.
Ariel’s picks for the aisle:
Whispers of feminine lace
Whether vintage-inspired or modern and graphic, thoughtfully-placed lace details create an instant keepsake. Sprinkles of lace float across necklines and decorate illusion straps, offering a sweet nod to tradition.
Ariel’s picks for the aisle:
Dramatic back details that cast an ethereal shadow
A fresh alternative to the classic cathedral veil, these on-trend back details are sure to turn heads as they float down the aisle. Airy tulle streamers, architectural oversized bows, and cascading flutter sleeves are perfect for the bride who’s looking for a little something “extra.”
Ariel’s picks for the aisle:
Dreamy A-lines that dance in the breeze
Flowy, whimsical fabrics are made for twirling the night away under the moonlight. The versatility of the A-line silhouette sets it apart as an all-around star. Soft A-line skirts in frothy tulle or fairy-tale floral chiffon read elegant, yet practical and complement rustic outdoor nuptials and ballroom soirees alike.
