The Modern Goddess bridal trend offers dramatically simple lines, creating a streamlined style for the bride who is looking for showstopping elegance with clean and timeless cut
The Modern Goddess bridal trend is an elegant look for brides who want to keep things simple. Here, the focus is on figure-enhancing and clean cut using fine fabrics. The details are restrained, for a strong silhouette that will never date.
Pure magic
With simple straps and a neatly fitted bodice, Lyla is a relaxed and contemporary ensemble that is also easy to accessorise with overtop, jacket or cape. The deep plunge neckline is the perfect foil for a statement necklace. carolinecastigliano.com
Fine line
Lucina is a dramatic pleated gown with elegant shoulder reveal and split-front bodice. The textured fabric and fine jewelled belt add interest to a slimline and super-flattering silhouette. amandawakeley.com
Timeless chic
The last word in pared-back day-to-evening dressing, the Abel gown from Andrea Hawkes has a translucent panel at the neckline and soft darting at the waist. Finishing at the ankle (perfect for showing off sparkly heels) it is made of fine silk and channels timeless elegance for the city bride. andreahawkes.co.uk
Curve queen
A tailored bodice with sweetheart neckline and masterful draping create a sleek but curvy profile for this wedding gown by Suzanne Neville. Simplicity is key here, but the bejewelled thin straps add a flash of decadence to a look that’s pure vintage Hollywood. suzanneneville.com
Dramatic draping
With an almost vintage evening-gown line, this simple plunge-neck gown with tie belt has soft and flowing lines – the perfect choice for a destination wedding. We love the slouch pocket detail to keep this look relaxed. cymbeline.com
Satin style
Kate Halfpenny’s latest gowns tick all the boxes for modern-meets-vintage glamour. We particularly love the sleek Ava skirt and Loretta corset combination (left) and Cheryl, a shimmering silk-satin halterneck with oversized bow feature at the nape of the neck. halfpennylondon.com
Grecian classic
Pleating across the body and a fabulous lightweight fabric combination add up to a Grecian classic with a twist. Made of soft tulle with a nude underslip, Lyric features an Italian silk taffeta and freshwater pearl statement brooch detail at the shoulder. shehurina.com
Tailored glamour
Perfect for a destination celebration, this cleverly shaped strapless number is by Canadian bridal label Mikaella. We love the simplicity of the curve-enhancing cut. mikaellabridal.com
