As you step into the exciting journey of wedding planning, it's time to talk about the trends that will dominate bridal fashion this year. Whether you're a minimalist bride, a glamour queen, or someone in between, 2025 is brimming with gorgeous options to suit every style.
At Lily Francis Bridal, we’re all about helping you turn your dream wedding into a stunning reality. So, let’s dive into 6 of my favourite top trends and see how they can inspire your bridal journey!
Statement Sleeves
Say goodbye to subtle and hello to drama! In 2025, sleeves are taking centre stage with bold puffed designs, cascading bell shapes, and intricate lace details. Statement sleeves add elegance and personality to your gown, making them a must-have for fashion-forward brides.
Why You’ll Love It: Statement sleeves can transform even a simple dress into a jaw-dropping masterpiece. They’re perfect for brides who want to blend classic romance with modern flair.
Find It at Lily Francis Bridal: We have a gorgeous collection of gowns featuring dramatic sleeve designs that are equal parts chic and comfortable. Additionally, lots of our gowns offer detachable sleeves - making them ideal if you're looking to mix up your look!
Colourful Accents
While ivory will always be iconic, 2025 brides are embracing soft pastels and bolder shades like champagne, blush, and even lavender. Colourful accents—whether in your gown, veil, or accessories—bring a fresh, playful vibe to traditional bridal wear.
Why You’ll Love It: Adding a hint of colour makes your look truly unique and gives you endless options to reflect your personality.
Find It at Lily Francis Bridal: Lots of our gowns here have different colour options, so whether you love the traditional ivory, or fancy a touch of blush or champagne underneath to express yourself. Whilst you're here, check out our most colourful veil too!
Eco-Friendly Elegance
Sustainability is more than a trend; it’s a movement. Brides in 2025 are choosing gowns crafted from eco-conscious fabrics and supporting designers with ethical practices, living more consciously.
Why You’ll Love It: If you encourage environmental practices, you’ll look and feel amazing knowing your choices contribute to a better world.
Find It at Lily Francis Bridal: All of our gowns are sourced responsible from our UK designers, with all of our veils made in Cambridgeshire. Our off-the-peg rail ensures that none of our sample gowns head to landfill once they discontinue.
Customised Everything
Your wedding should reflect you! From personalised embroidery to bespoke designs, customisation is huge for 2025. Adding your initials, a meaningful date, or a special quote to your look is the ultimate way to make it one of a kind.
Why You’ll Love It: It’s all about creating a gown that feels uniquely yours and tells your story.
Find It at Lily Francis Bridal: The vast majority of our made-to-order gowns can be customised, whether wanting to add sleeves, splits, raise or lower necklines or change colours, we can make your dress unique to you. And for that something extra, we our veils can be embroidered with your initials, wedding date or a special quote!
Bridal Capes
Veils are still in style, but capes are stealing the show! From sheer, embellished designs to dramatic, floor-length capes, this accessory adds an ethereal and modern twist to your bridal look.
Why You’ll Love It: Capes offer the perfect balance of drama and practicality. Plus, they’re easy to remove for your reception look.
Find It at Lily Francis Bridal: We have a STUNNING lace gown with cathedral train that will step up your look. Or match your dress with one of our shorter, over the shoulder capes to cover your shoulders and upper arms, and add a touch of romance.
Glitz and Glamour
Shimmering fabrics, sequins, and beaded embellishments are making a dazzling comeback in 2025. It’s your moment to shine—literally!
Why You’ll Love It: For brides who want to light up the room, glitz and glamour are the ultimate statement-makers. Just imagine that sun hitting your dress as you move. BREATHTAKING.
Find It at Lily Francis Bridal: We love a bit of glitter and sparkle at Lily Francis Bridal, with a huge range of sparkly gowns on our rails. And if your chosen dress doesn't have any sparkle, we can add it on!
