Discover contemporary wedding dresses and clean bridal gown looks that capture the essence of the sleek, minimalistic bride. “Less is more” is the mantra for today’s modern brides who appreciate the beauty of simplicity. Rather than eliminating details, a clean look highlights the intricacy and intention. In addition, a clean and modern look draws your attention directly where it should be - the happy couple! With these minimalistic and sleek wedding gown trends, you will surely achieve that beautiful desired look.   

Pearls

Pearls are everywhere! Any simple gown whether it’s A-line, fitted, strapless, or adorned with sleeves, can be enhanced so much by pearls. Pearls are a game changer! Imagine a ruched crepe waist providing a fluid, minimal contrast to a sheath gown’s ornate and shimmering pearl beaded bodice. Pearls are a timeless way to instantly elevate your wedding style.  

Wedding Dress with Sleeves

Planning a winter wedding? Sleeves are a must! They come in various styles, from flowy to fitted, lace to chiffon. Sleeves are receiving the comeback they deserve! The design features a clean crepe bodice paired with an airy chiffon skirt. A modern square neckline complements the light chiffon blouson sleeves, creating an irresistibly romantic gown. The exquisite dress is complete with a V-back accented with a simple chapel length train.   

Bridal Slip Dress

The simplicity of a slip dress, popular in the 1990’s, remains timeless. Slip dresses are perfect for that lightweight, sometimes beachy, look. Straight from Savannah Miller, this silky slip dress has a champagne bias cut V neck. The skirt is elegantly cut with side godet detailing to give further volume to a dramatic train. And to take this lovely dress a step further, adding gloves or some sparkle can tie a gorgeous look together.   

Bridal Dress Cutouts and Ties

Our final modern and sleek wedding dress trend is none other than cutouts and ties! You can have a small peek-a-boo moment that adds a little bit of spice. Featured, we have a unique twist on a clean and modern dress that has a bikini twist front with a cutout.  Or, a matte crepe gown that has a statuesque effect. With a low back, the gown ties in the back area creating a statement, yet sophisticated touch. If you are looking for the simple sleek and modern look for your wedding gown, Normans Bridal has a large selection for you to choose from. Located in downtown Springfield, Missouri, Normans Bridal has been helping brides say "Yes" to the dress since 1980.
