The Kate Middleton Ensemble That Captured Major 2025 Bridal Trends

Loud luxury is becoming more prevalent, and people are incorporating the trend into their walks down the aisle. Today’s bridse want to show off their unique attributes with maximalist updates to the classic wedding routine. This is especially evident in the types of wedding ensembles that are being chosen. The typical ball gown or A-line wedding dress is being transformed into new formats like jumpsuits or separate pieces and embellished with large capes or veils and other accessories to make a bold statement. Other boundary-pushing bridal sets include a bra top with an exposed mid-section. 

Celebrities have also made a large influence on wedding fashion with their choice of stylish attire. We spotted the next big bridal trend at the 2025 Oscars when “Wicked” star Cynthia Erivo wore a white gown blinged out with floral embellishments, and Kate Middleton’s VE Day look will surely be used as inspiration for a new normal in wedding wear. The Princess of Wales showed off a playful way to update the traditional all-white bridal look, with a small hint of color for contrast. She also included a subtle touch of femininity by styling a black bow in her hair. Hair bows are the accessory of the moment because they’re cute and adaptable, perfect for any bride that wants to feel like a princess on her big day. They’re a great wedding-day hair accessory, and brides that want to go bold with their details could consider a dress with a chic bow on the gown itself.
