Wedding Gown Trends - Spring 2020
It’s time to say yes, and we aren’t talking about the answer to the proposal. Arguably the second most important question a bride will be asked – are you saying yes to the dress? This moment is not only something that almost every bride has been looking forward too since she was a little girl but it is a moment no bride will every forget. There is something so magical about finding the dress! While the process can be a bit daunting, when you step into that perfect dress all those stresses seem to melt away.
Now, more than ever it can feel overwhelming to even start the search. With so many looks, where do you even begin? Luckily, Little Bird is here to help. We have narrowed down our top five favourite wedding dress trends of 2020 and are so excited to share them with all of you!
A Statement Sleeve
We are here for this trend! The statement sleeve is back and more beautiful than ever. Whether you’re looking at a puff, lace, off the shoulder or even a ruffle sleeve, it is a welcomed trend! There are so many different styles – from a cap, to a long or an illusion sleeve - we honestly don’t think you can go wrong with any of them. A sleeve can turn a classic dress into a much more modern and trendy look. Bonus points for finding a sleeve with more than one feature, think puffy and off the shoulder!

Keeping it Minimal
Sometimes less is more! Ever since Meghan Markle stepped out in her breathtaking wedding dress, the minimal dress style has soared in popularity. It definitely looks like this trend is here to stay, as more and more designers are creating jaw dropping dresses with little to no detail, and focusing more on fit, cut and defined lines. This style screams chic, modern and classy, and will leave you feeling like absolute royalty! (Pun totally intended)
