Satin wedding dresses

What draws you to a satin wedding dress?

It might be the sheen or the way a fold catches the light. Satin brings attention to the shape of a dress, from the neckline to the sweep of the skirt. Depending on the fabric and the design, it can drape softly or hold a more defined shape. Try on a few styles to feel the difference.

Simple satin wedding dresses

A pared-back dress leaves room for a detail you love: a draped bodice, an open back or a sharply defined waist. Think about where you want the eye to go, then choose jewellery and a hairstyle that work with that detail. A simple dress can still feel bold.

Choosing a silhouette and neckline

An A-line dress widens from the waist towards the hem. A closer cut follows the body, while a fuller skirt creates more volume. The construction and lining also affect how each dress feels. At your appointment, look at the dress from the side and back, and take a few steps to see it move.

Satin, lace and sleeves

Lace can add pattern against a smooth satin surface. Sleeves, a bare shoulder or an open back each change the mood. If you are considering a particular neckline, ask your boutique about suitable underwear for your fitting. Seeing everything together will help you judge the finished look.

Try on your favourites

A satin wedding dress can suit a civil ceremony or a larger celebration; choose the length and volume you enjoy.
