A wedding is one of the “key” events in a woman’s life. On this day, she must outshine everyone, so buying a dress is the most significant pre-wedding ritual. Shopping centers, specialized salons, online stores and home-based craftswomen vying with each other to offer their services to brides. Thanks to their efforts, fans of any fashion trend can choose or order an outfit to their liking. Recently, retro looks for newlyweds have been gaining popularity.
Retro style wedding dress
The term “retro” (translated from Latin as “back”) means everything that has to do with the past. Therefore, the style of any dress created before the 90s of the 20th century automatically falls into this category. All that remains is to choose the right one based on the parameters of the figure, the age of the bride and the nature of the celebration.
Popular classic models
Most girls prefer long wedding dresses. Sophisticated ladies can choose a dress in the Victorian style of the late 19th century.Elegant, with open shoulders, an accentuated waist and a fluffy floor-length skirt - it will suit tall and slender women. Age does not matter if the skin is not problematic and well-groomed, especially in the chest and neck area.

Brides with an hourglass figure will suit a low-cut dress with a train. It fits tightly around the waist and hips, and then widens downward, resembling a fishtail. The style was widespread in the 30s of the last century.

Free-flowing silhouettes are also in demand. They help hide some figure flaws. These include dresses:
- stylized as art deco of the 20s;
- folklore or eco-motives of the 70s.

“Thumbelina” can try on a medium-length outfit, and at the same time the image of Audrey Hepburn - romantic, airy and extremely feminine.

Original dresses for a themed wedding
Hosts often offer their clients a stylized celebration. The peculiarity of such an event is the recreation of a certain time era. The clothes of all the guests, the surroundings, and the musical accompaniment correspond to it. A midi outfit for the hero of the occasion provides freedom of movement, thereby allowing you to “have a real blast.” In addition, these dresses go:
- both tall and miniature;
- both slender and plump.
The most popular are the 60s, which are associated with a thaw in relations between East and West, with dudes and rock and roll. The dress of those years was fitted, with a clearly defined bodice and a full midi skirt. The shoulders can be covered with transparent guipure inserts. “The theme” would be shoes of contrasting color or a catchy accessory, such as a belt.

A Gatsby-style dress will suit lovers of improvisation and jazz. A straight-cut hooligan mini made of textured fabric, often with fringe, can be complemented with a small hat. A ribbon or other original hair decoration will also work. The color of the outfit can be not only white, but also cream or even silver.

Exotic outfit options for a newlywed
It happens that fashion couturiers include in their collections wedding dresses typical of more “distant” eras, for example:
- Greek - in the form of a toga made of flowing fabric;
- Egyptian, associated, among other things, with Cleopatra’s robe.
The variety of styles of dresses in the retro genre is so great that it can satisfy even the most demanding needs. You just need to take into account all the nuances, and then the main day in your life will become truly unforgettable. And the newlywed will feel the happiest, one and only.
