How to choose the color of the wedding dress?
Previously, there was only one color for wedding dresses – white. Today, the bride can choose an outfit from a wide variety of shades, both traditional (white, ivory, champagne) and non-standard (pink, blue, red, green). The decisive role is played by the color of the skin, eyes and hair, as well as seasonality.
White
White is the first color used in bridal fashion. It is universal and suitable for girls with any color type. The main task is to emphasize the bride’s purity, kindness, and integrity. A white wedding dress is traditionally chosen by young girls who are getting married for the first time. It looks especially beautiful on brides with dark skin, a nice tan or dark hair.
Ivory
Ivory (ivory) wedding dresses are most often preferred by brides from European countries. This is not a banal option that looks expensive, elegant and noble. It also suits many girls, but especially those with a cool skin tone. Ivory color will not make the skin pale, but, on the contrary, will emphasize its freshness and natural beauty. These dresses are decorated with gold trim.
Mocha
Mocha is next in our list. It symbolizes sensuality, sophistication, a symbol of hope. Suitable for older women. Mocha color shades tanned skin. Ivory or powder color decor looks great on it. The image can be beaten through accessories: add another color to the veil, shoes, bouquet.
Champagne color
Champagne color is also considered universal. It emphasizes the skin tone, gives it a warmer tone. The darker the skin of the bride, the better this color will look. Ideal for a wedding in the warm season – spring or summer. You can add natural pearls, gold jewelry, etc. to the image, thereby emphasizing good taste, luxury and wealth. Sometimes champagne color is used as a lining for a lace wedding dress in order to enhance the contrast, give “depth” of color, and also highlight the pattern of the fabric.
Pink
Pink color is not classic, but a very gentle and romantic option. All its shades have won the hearts of brides: it is powdery, dusty pink, peach, quartz. Pink color contrasts well with greenery and is used to decorate spring-summer weddings. For fair-haired girls with fair skin that is not prone to redness, this color will suit best of all.
Azure
This color is popular among brides who are looking for an unusual look – on the wedding day, you will look at least original. It symbolizes a sense of calm and peace. It goes well with light skin. A warm skin tone will set off gentle blue options, pale girls should choose a brighter and more saturated tone. The color looks especially beautiful in winter. Another option is white with an azure tint. It is not so “bold”, but very practical.
Lavender
In the context of the pastel palette, you should pay attention to the lavender color, as one of the shades of purple. It is considered a symbol of youth, energy and freshness. A lavender-colored dress is light, most often sewn from transparent flowing fabrics, in the style of boho, rustic or Provence. The cut is predominantly light and simple, without puffy skirts, crinolines, etc. The main focus is on color.
Gray
Gray color (metallic, ash, silver, etc.) is an alternative to the classics, which is suitable for creating a brighter and more festive look. It is mainly chosen by avant-garde designers. Gray color requires more decor, decorations and accessories. For example, a wide belt with stones, a cape with embroidery, shoes or a handbag with large decor will suit here. It is desirable that the jewelry be made of silver, white gold, platinum or pearls.
Gold
A golden wedding dress is an opportunity to emphasize original taste. You will look like a queen in this outfit. Ideal for brides with fair hair and tanned skin, it emphasizes blue and green eyes. Keep in mind that gray color should be avoided by brides with pale skin. Inconspicuous curls or a bundle, large and spectacular earrings will help bring the image to perfection.
Mint
Mint is an interesting color for a wedding dress. It suits girls with warm skin tone, red or dark hair. Light skin against the background will look pale, and perhaps even painful. Couples pay attention to the mint color if their wedding is in the first months of spring, the time of the awakening of nature. It is also appropriate if the newlyweds are not indifferent to environmental problems.
