Bardot wedding dresses have long been on the wedding scene, with brides looking for something in-between a sleeve and something strapless, a style that happens to be demure enough for any kind of wedding ceremony, breathtaking and jaw-droppingly romantic too.
More than pretty to look at, the shape of a bardot bridal gown is universally flattering on every type of body shape - the off-the-shoulder style seems to elongate the arms, and neck, highlighting your upper body in a way that isn’t just elegant, it’s a bit sexy, too (thanks to that subtle flash of skin on show). The style is also great for big busts, draping over without concealing. Basically, this type of wedding dress is all kinds of genius.
It’s not just us claiming the bardot is having a moment, celebrities too have been choosing this style for years - from Meghan Markle’s royal nuptials to Prince Harry, where she wore a classic bateau style with a Givenchy gown designed by Clare Waight Keller to Anne Hathaway’s Valentino off-the-shoulder wedding dress, this classic shape seems to be going nowhere.
If you’re wondering whether a bardot gown is too trendy, we have some news for you: You’re wrong. Most off-the-shoulder wedding dress designs are delicate and whimsical, think floaty chiffon, tulle or lace, or structured, giving you a style that’s more traditional than you probably think.
The best part is that bardot silhouettes work hand-in-hand with every single wedding gown shape, whether that’s a figure-fitting lace gown, silk satin column gown or mermaid or ball gown, with everything from sheer fairytale straps to a long-sleeved bohemian blouson. The shape also works with church weddings as it does with a toes-in-the-sand ceremony, as well as being a perfect choice for a summer or winter celebration.
So, if you're still looking for The One, we bring you are 15, bardot wedding dresses, each with a stunning off-the-shoulder style, no matter your budget.
