Simply beautiful Designer wedding gowns for the bridal look of the year.

hen Meghan Markle married Britain’s Prince Harry in 2018, her choice of a wedding dress, tailored with a simple silhouette, seemed surprising for a royal wedding. Fast forward to 2020, however, and many of today’s grandest weddings are also opting for simplicity. Of course, this choice of streamlined gowns is undeniably linked to the unprecedented challenges that everyone is facing amid a global pandemic. For brides-to-be these challenges include limitations on guest numbers and also a general mood in which ‘less’ has suddenly become ‘more’. At Fifty One East’s Bridal Lounge, this trend of simpler gowns is amply reflected in a wide range of offerings from leading international designers. Reassuringly, while silhouettes are pared down, these dresses still exude impeccable luxury in every detail. For the bride that desires to stand out in beautiful style, this season’s understated glamour is therefore the choice par excellence.
