LESS IS MORE
Yeah, sequinned embellished bodices are great, but have you ever tried contrasting your fresh glowing wed-ready skin against a crisp white mikado?
Not so much glitz and glam, more polished and demure, here’s our pick of 10 of the best 2022 minimalist wedding dresses for the cool, calm and collected brides.
1) ROYALTY BY POLLARDI
This dress needs more than just a moment. A standing ovation and a stallion-backed entourage will do.
As featured in Belle Bridal’s Digital Edition in our luxe Modern Fairytale shoot at Ellingham Hall, this gown oozes luxuriance and sophistication with dreamy fabrics and an off the shoulder drape. Add to that a leg split and the sexy silhouette just took on a whole new meaning.
Available at Si Bridal
2) LYNN BY EVA LENDEL
If ever there was a disco diva evening bridal look, the Lynn playsuit by Eva Lendel takes the biscuit. And the cakem (and the whole buffet to be frank).
We adore this light and fresh outfit that doesn’t pretend to be anything other than dazzling - as evidenced in our shoot at Kinmount House for Issue 24.
Available at Pretty Woman Edinburgh - exhibiting at Kinmount House LOVE&LUXE 10.04.22

3) TOMMIE BY WILLOWBY
Dreamy and ethereal vibes, Tommie by Willowby by Watters is a sterling example of how chic boho meets modern minimalism.
A gorgeous floral detailed skirt and sleek spaghetti strap bodice make for the perfect match.
Available at Eden Wedding Boutique – exhibiting at Kinmount House LOVE&LUXE 10.04.22

4) 2222 BY JESUS PEIRO
Clean cut and statement. This gown is for the bride who knows her style and sings it with gusto. A beautiful plunging neckline travels to a belt with detailed rose buckle for a feminine flourish.
Available at Bridal Wish Blagdon

5) AUDRE DRESS AND CARDEN TOP BY CHARLIE BREAR
Want to get a little celestial on your special day? We’re starry eyed over this combo from Charlie Brear, evoking max style and minimal effort with chic balloon sleeves and the most dreamy star-embellishments.
Available at Rebel Rock Bridalwear

6) CHICA BY WTOO BY WATTERS
Enter Chica, the rolling rating organza gown with attitude and cheekiness that’s impossible to turn a blind eye to.
There’s pockets, there’s clean lines, there’s leg, there’s a handmade floral bouquet brooch. What’s not to love.
Available at Leigh Hetherington Bridalwear
7) RHONDA BY ENZOANI
Minimalist, dreamt and striking, this sleek mermaid gown is all bout clean lines and sophistication. Turn around and there’s a signature Enzoani scalloped cutout train that will take anyone’s breath away.
Available at Alice Elizabeth

8) COCO BY KATE FEARNLEY
Tassle without the hassle, Coco is the epitome of cool. An open back adds to the drama. Part of Kate’s iconic Awaken collection as featured exclusively in Belle Bridal Issue 24.
Available at Kate Fearnley and her stockists. See here for the full list.

9) VIVIANE BY WATTERS
Enveloped in pearls and clear lustrous sequins, Viviane is coming soon to the rails at 130 Atelier and frankly you should run, not walk. Her molded cups, mini puff sleeves, and a fluted skirt with removable flocked dot skirt for two looks in one.
Available at 130 Atelier

10) PERLA BY EVA LENDEL
Glamour meets minimalism. This mermaid silhouette is one that accentuates the décolleté and with detachable transparent wings, it provides the perfect day to night look.
Available at Hugo and Elliot Bridal
