Know What’s Trending in 2023 When You Shop Modest Wedding Dresses

As documented by many online bridal sites, New York Bridal Fashion Week offered a mix of fun, unique, and modest wedding gown styles for 2023. These fashion trends can help inspire you to create the wedding dress and look you want without sacrificing budget, style, or modesty. Below are some of our favorite trends paired with White Elegance’s best modest wedding dresses.

Sheer Fabrics

Layered, sheer fabrics are trending for modern brides, both as a single layer and layered with other materials for a whimsical, fantasy bridal look. At White Elegance, we have three styles of modest wedding dresses that incorporate sheer fabrics and create an elegant, modest gown. Our Marseille Bridal Gown has sheer, scalloped trim at the neck and sleeves that match the material of the front fly-way panels. Our Springville Bridal Gown has sheer lace that overlays the dress for a beautiful look. Our Madison Bridal Gown has light fabric over a fully-lined skirt, creating a sweeping, elegant look.

Capes & Gloves

Floor-length capes offer an elegant, flowing look that stands out in pictures and are easily removed without messing up hair or altering the dress underneath. Capes can be made using semi-transparent fabrics to make your dress stand out, or they can be more detailed and opaque, allowing you to detail them with beading, ruffles, sequins, or other embellishments. White Elegance does not currently offer capes, but you could easily purchase or make one that would match one of our conservative bridal gowns.

Gloves are another trending item you can easily pair with one of White Elegance’s simple, modest wedding gowns. Whether you pair elbow-length gloves with our short-sleeve dress, A Simple Affair, or opera gloves, wrist gloves, or glovelettes with our long-sleeve collection, it’s easy and affordable to jump on this trend.

Our long-sleeve dresses that would look best with a cape, gloves, or both include:

Feather Embellishments and Floral Detailing

Feather embellishments and floral detailing are other popular trends that you could easily add to our more simple dresses. You can do so by stitching large 3-D florals or feathers to the skirt or bodice of our Holland Bridal Gown or London Bridal Gown. If altering dresses isn’t your thing, check out our dresses that already highlight intricate floral detailing in the lace, such as our Savannah Bridal Couture, Springville Bridal Gown, and Venice Bridal Gown.

Bows

Bows are a popular feature in 2023 wedding dress trends. You can easily add a large bow, either with a sash or attached with a few stitches, to any of our dresses. Or, you can add smaller bows or ties using the same stitching method. Imagine a row of tiny bows down the back of our Venice Bridal Gown or a beautiful sweeping satin bow at the back of our Marseille Bridal Gown. Your bows could even hold a hint of color, such as pastel blue or pastel pink, which are both popular colors this year. Our styles that would best highlight beautiful bows are our Venice Bridal Gown, Marseille Bridal Gown, or Springville Bridal Gown

Long Sleeves

Long-sleeve bridal gowns are in style this year, making White Elegance gowns an excellent affordable choice for your wedding day. All save one of our beautiful modest wedding dresses have long sleeves, including: 

Our long sleeve gowns are constructed with soft, stretchy fabric that is comfortable for all-day wear and fits all different body types. With White Elegance’s simple and affordable long-sleeve styles, you can look your best for your big day. Whether you purchase our bridal gowns for your piece de resistance, as a second wedding dress for your rehearsal dinner or small ceremony, or as a temple dress, we know you’ll love the price and the style.
