I don’t know about you, but I’ve gone from having one wedding in the diary to now having eight across 2024 and 2025. And while I haven’t started thinking about the many guest dresses I need to buy or rent, my close friends who have invited me to their upcoming nuptials have already asked me “which bridal boutiques should I visit in London?” followed by: “where should I shop for the best bridesmaids dresses?”.

Luckily, as a fashion editor, this is where I can help. And when it comes to this year’s key dress styles, there are so many wearable trends everyone would be more than happy to be ‘made’ to wear on the big day.

With pastels being a forever favourite when it comes to weddings, of course Pantone’s Colour of the Year ‘peach fuzz’ will be having a moment for 2024. Along with shades of blue, as seen at content creator India Cardona’s wedding who had seven bridesmaids as her ‘something blue’ in dreamy Dôen shirred midi dresses. According to Media Vision, Monsoon have also seen a 316% rise in search for dusty blue dresses and 207% for navy bridesmaid dresses, so it’s big news this year.
