Incorporating Black Into Your Wedding Gown

When it comes to weddings, the spotlight tends to be on the bride – from her dress to hairstyle and right down to her shoes. Which is why brides tend to focus most of their time and attention on getting the perfect dress and bridal look.

An increasing number of brides these days are opting for unconventional dresses instead of traditional white gowns. If you’d like to stick to the traditional white with a twist, consider incorporating hints of black to your gown. Here are some of the ways you can play around with black to make your Singapore bridal gown a unique one, without upsetting the more conventional guests.

Black lace

Lace is here to stay. Be it a lace sleeved dress or lace embellishments, your wedding dress is bound to look elegant, feminine and romantic. Opt for the lace on your dress to be black instead of white for it give it more emphasis. This will also bring more attention to that particular area of the dress. However, you might want to use black lace sparingly, especially if you’re considering a full lace dress. The black and white colours will create a great contrast that will make your wedding dress look great and different from the conventional ones.

Black embellishments

Embellishments can transform a plain gown to one that’s elegant or sophisticated. Most wedding gowns have white embellishments on a white gown. However, similar to the lace, show some emphasis on these embellishments by opting for them to be black. Embellishments include items like beads, crystals or lace that can be sewn on to the bodice, skirt or around the neckline.

The train

If you opt for a train, don’t leave it plain. As you sweep down the aisle at your wedding reception in Singapore, your guests will be able to admire the details on the train. Above all, having a train with details or one that adds contrast, will look great in photos. However, do not overdo the details on your train and consider only adding touches of black details to the train’s hemline.

The bodice

If you wish to flaunt the top-half of your figure, you may want to go with a black, figure-hugging bodice. Opt for a full black bodice or one that’s a mix of black and white. Again, this brings more attention to your bust and waist. This can be done with lace or black fabric, should you wish to go with a full black bodice.

Waist details

One of the more simple ways to add black to your wedding gown would be around the waist. Here, you may simply just add a black sash, ribbon, flower or even a band of lace. When shopping, go for a material that will complement your gown. However, if your midsection is not as lean or an area that you would like to emphasise, avoid this idea.

Every bride wants to look her best in her own unique way on her wedding day. As you hop from one wedding shop to another, have a checklist of the kind of gown you want. Alternatively, work with the designers to come up with your unique dress.
