8 Ways To Elevate Minimalistic Wedding Gowns

Minimalist and minimalistic have been buzzwords in the fashion industry for a long time. They describe a type of aesthetic that means simple, clean, and often monochromatic. However, according to expert stylists, the term minimalist does not necessarily mean casual. When designers create minimalistic pieces, they always focus on the lines and silhouettes and make sure they stand out.

This is why some of the most popular wedding gowns and evening dresses in Dubai fall under this style category.

Another quality of minimalistic pieces is that they create different opportunities for slight tweaks or upgrades. Therefore, if you are gravitating toward a minimalist wedding gown for your big day and you wish to give it some oomph or extend your unique personality to it, it should be easy to do so.

Here are easy yet brilliant ways to style a minimalist wedding gown.

1. Belt it.

If the dress doesn't come with a belt, why not throw one in? This is one of the easiest styling tricks that you can do not only to break up the pattern of the dress, but also to introduce an interesting element to the simple design.

To make the belt look quite intentional as a styling piece, opt for sparkle or a standout color, such as black.

2. Brighten up the bridal bouquet.

Complement the simple dress with a pop of color that will not at all alter its style and silhouette. One of the quickest ways to do that is by making sure that your bridal bouquet completely contrasts your dress. The overall effect is lovely, and you'll appreciate how the contrasting hues play up each other.

For example, blood-red roses highlight the purity of a white silk dress. Meanwhile, a white silk dress can show off the rich red color of the bouquet.

3. Go for a bold lip color.

If you want to vamp up the minimalist style of your outfit, one way to do so is by wearing a bold lip color.

Again, this makes for a delicious contrast of hues. Proving this is Chanel's research at Gettysburg College, which reveals that bold lip colors such as classic red achieve a thing called "face" contrast, which makes women look younger and more attractive.

Therefore, anytime you want to make something simple look more alluring, direct attention to your lip color and choose a hue that contrasts well with what you're wearing, as well as with your complexion.

4. Consider a hat as headwear.

There are two ways in which opting for a hat can elevate your minimalist wedding dress.

A pillbox hat, for instance, can achieve a particular logical look for the entire ensemble. Meanwhile, a fedora or a cowboy hat can serve as a complete game-changer for your whole look.

Whichever of these two you go for, you can be confident that your entire wedding day get-up will look glamorous and more high-fashion.

5. Go for a gorgeous veil and train.

According to the top source of designer and made-to-order wedding gowns in Dubai, if you wish to maintain a more traditional look, opt to fancy things up with a gorgeous veil and train. This would really elevate a minimalist style dress. A veil and train with an intricate design would be just the right touch of drama for the entire ensemble.

6. Focus on the fit.

French fashion designer Justine Leconte says that stunning minimalist outfits are all about the fit. Therefore, when choosing your dress, make sure that it fits you to a T and that it is cut in a way that emphasizes the strong points of your body.

For example, if you have a long and graceful neck, you can show it off by opting for a mock or asymmetrical neckline. Or, if you have toned, slender legs, choose a dress with a slit to display those stems elegantly.

7. Throw in a surprise element.

Although minimalist wedding gowns are all about clean cuts and lines, you can make them slightly unique by requesting a surprise element. How about a brightly colored under fabric for the skirt of your dress, which peeps out from the slit? This would make for a nice, unexpected element of a rather simple dress.

Alternatively, go avant-garde with the shoes. Popsugar.com cites hot pink flats, two-toned mules, and accordion platforms as some of the high-fashion options for wedding footwear.

8. Wear statement accessories.

Finally, if you're going minimalist with the dress, deck out with the accessories. Wear big chunky earrings, adorn the dress with a big and sparkly brooch, or bring attention to the feminine neckline using tribal jewelry.

Consider layering pieces as well. A light and billowy kimono-type dress would make an excellent layering piece, especially during the reception. It's a clever addition to a minimalistic wedding dress that gives it a different silhouette and new style.

Minimalist wedding gowns certainly do not need to be (and are anything but) boring. With smart styling, you can easily elevate their style so they can become not only more sophisticated, but more "you" as well.
