2022 wedding dress trends
“Wedding dress trends 2022”, “2022 wedding gowns”, if either one of these thoughts has crossed your mind (or through your search engine!) you’re probably wondering what wedding dress styles, silhouettes, and embellishments are going to be front and center at the altar in 2022.
We’ve rounded up some of our favorite gowns from our designers—from big bows to bold floral appliqués—that you’ll want to add to your wish list when you book your appointment with us at Charlotte’s!
80'S MODERN
We're seeing a resurgence of gowns that look similar to our mothers from decades ago, with beautiful, modern upgrades of course, and we're here for it! With retro touches such as shoulder pads and puffy detachable sleeves, we're loving the modern spin on these classic styles!

OVERSIZED LACE
We love floral embellishments so we’re excited to see big, bold floral appliqués in our 2022 wedding dress trends. Our boho brides looking for something unique will especially love this embellishment from many of our favorite designers, like Allure Romance, but also exclusively in our private collection Julia Leigh!

TRANSFORMATIVE STYLES
There’s no better feeling than finding your dream dress, but finding your dream dress twice? Yes, it’s possible!
With a transformative style—whether it’s detachable sleeves or a skirt—you can have two looks in one from your ceremony to your reception!

HIGH NECKLINES
With high necklines taking celebrity bridal looks by storm in 2021, we are so excited that this trend is here to stay in 2022! We love that a high neckline can complement any silhouette from an A-line halter neck, to a curve-hugging gown with cut-outs.

CAPES
Fly me to the moon just got a whole new meaning! Wedding dresses with capes are becoming more and more popular each year, and we love this fun accessory alternative to a veil! With angelic, flowing fabrics, or dramatic lace wings, there is a bridal cape to suit everyone's style.

NONTRADITIONAL GOWNS
From pops of color (or even pops of black!) to jumpsuits, unitards or tailored suits, nontraditional bridal looks are taking over in 2022. Be on the lookout for these trends and maybe even try a bridal suit on during your shopping appointment, it may suprise you!
