2023 Wedding Dress Trends Predicted by Maggie Sottero Designs

Few know wedding fashion trends better than those who design the gowns themselves, which is why we asked Maggie Sottero Designs to give us some insight into the wedding dress trends we can expect to see in 2023. Without further ado, these are the 2023 predicted wedding gown trends.

3D Florals

Hello, it’s 3D . . . Need we say more?

Allover Lace

Lace has been growing in popularity in recent years, so it’s no surprise that lace all over is now in. Lace, we’ve been waiting for this moment!

Architectural Details & Complex Pleating

Classic weddings have been cropping up more and more as the preferred theme for weddings, and the classic and contemporary vibe of pleating is bound to be a fan-favorite, too.

Asymmetrical Design

Looking for that wow factor? You just found it, because this will have all of your guests and your love doing a double-take.

Bow Details

We’ve seen the oversized bow trend and loved every second of it. In fact, a wedding that was recently featured on Wedding Day Match had one of the greatest oversized bows we’ve seen. So more bows? We’re totally on board.

Bridal Jackets

These are not your mothers’ bridal jackets, breaking the mold in all the right ways — sometimes made out of lace, bridal jackets add an extra flair to the dress.

Color

Breaking the mold this year, Maggie Sottero Designs brought us colored wedding dresses that have us rethinking the white dress tradition. Have you seen the new Scarlet and Zander Lane designs?

One word for you . . . Whimsical.

Minidresses

Mock Necks & High Necks

This trend gives you a choice, you can either cover your entire neck or partially cover it. Hello, winter vibes!

Audrina by Maggie Sottero

Open Backs

Backless dresses have always had a reputation for being sexy, and because it looks sexy it has the ability to make you feel sexy (which is all that matters!), so own it because the backless dress trend is about to make you strut yourself down the aisle like it’s a runway.

Oversized Floral Motifs

Psst… a certain celebrity recently wore a floral wedding gown that made this a favorite! Now we say bring on the 3D florals, because it’s a game-changer.

Sleek & Sophisticated

Classic! Silk is basically synonymous with sleek in wedding dress lingo, and the traditional (and modern) beauty will fall in love with this look.

Straight Necklines

The straight or square neckline can be paired with any type of gown, whether A-line or ballgown.

Thigh-High Slits

Fashion just gave you a reason to jut out that leg of yours. This dress gives you space to make a picture-perfect pose.

Voluminous Sleeves & Skirts

The puffy sleeves and skirts are here to stay. They’re light, airy, and add a breezy flair to the dress, why shouldn’t they stay?
