Kate Middleton‘s gorgeous wedding gown left the world breathless. Here, we predict the top three trends the famous dress is most likely to inspire.
Royal inspiration
With a high necklace, lace sleeves and a modest train, Kate Middleton’s wedding dress was modern and timeless. Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen designed the lace gown with a V-neck satin bodice and nearly nine-foot train. Praised by the fashion world, the gorgeous gown will no doubt inspire a series of copy cat creations for brides looking to channel Middleton on their big days. Designer Allen B Schwartz, well known for his knock offs of Oscar dresses, is already at work on his own version.
But even those against cheap imitations are likely to see signs of the influential piece in upcoming bridal collections. Here we share three trends we predict the gorgeous gown will launch.
Trends inspired by Kate’s dress
LACE
Bridal boutiques have already reported an increased interest in lace designs. Evoking a modern day Grace Kelly vibe, traditional lace detailing is the perfect upgrade for brides looking for a fairy tale touch.
SLEEVES
The standard strapless silhouette, which is appropriate for any black tie affair, isn’t dressy enough. Even though nine out of ten girls will opt to give ’em the cold shoulder on her wedding day, industry experts predict a surge in long sleeved gowns.
SIMPLE
Unlike Diana’s frothy dress and seemingly endless confection of a train, Kate stuck with a sweet, simple style. She looked like the wedding day version of herself and her gown was praised for its ability to be both timeless and classic.
