5 Modern Wedding Dress Designers

For all of my modern/simple girlies! What can ooze more elegance, timelessness and sophistication than a jaw-dropping, effortless gown on your big day. These types of gowns are coming back hard but in brand new fabrics and silhouettes, perfect for 2023/24 brides.

PROS OF SIMPLE GOWNS

1. Essentially a stunning, simple gown gives you a sort-of blank canvas to go nuts on other aspects of your wedding. You can go crazy with colour and textures on florals, go extra with accessories such as a unique veil, head piece, gloves - whatever you want with no fear of anything clashing!

2. Photos and videos will be timeless! Remember looking back at your parents wedding photos with those spectacular 80's wedding dresses and thinking - good lord Mother, what in the taffeta and lace is that?? You're (thankfully) not going to get that with a simple, modern dress. Clean lines and beautiful luxurious fabrics will always age gracefully.

3. Huge price range!. For my Queens on a budget - you can easily find a gorgeous, simple gown. For my Queens with no budget - you can easily find a gorgeous, simple gown! Everyone wins hooray. The prices may stretch a little depending on fabrics used. Generally, materials such as crepe or chiffon will come out cheaper that silks and satin.

While there are a lot of designers that dabble with minimalistic gowns - Here is a compiled list of designers KILLING IT in beautiful, show stopping modern/simple gowns.
