When preparing for such an important event as a wedding, many tasks arise. For the bride, the main problem is choosing a wedding dress. Newlyweds are increasingly moving away from stereotypes, using non-traditional ceremonies, and some creative ideas. The same applies to the image of the newlywed - the wedding dress does not necessarily have to be white. An interesting and unusual solution is a blue wedding dress, which will certainly attract the attention of others and bring novelty and originality.
Color Features
Blue-colored items are chosen by newlyweds who like to show their individuality. The most important thing is the choice of shade and the harmonious image created. Since a blue wedding dress is a kind of challenge to tradition, then the usual foundations should be broken with brilliance. If the shade of the dress is chosen incorrectly, a failure in the eyes of the guests is possible. For example, any shade of blue will make the blue eyes of a young woman more expressive, but can give the complexion a pale and sickly look. The principle of choosing a shade depends entirely on the girl's color type:
- Winter. Bright colors are perfect for this appearance: turquoise, azure, electric, ultramarine, bright blue, indigo.
- Autumn. Subtle but not too pale tones are perfect: sky blue, sea wave, denim shade, steel, greenish-blue.
- Summer. A non-bright palette is appropriate here: gray-blue, cobalt, sea wave, blueberry, dark shades.
- Spring. The most suitable tones are not too dark without a hint of gray: aquamarine, cornflower blue, greenish-blue, azure, topaz, cyan.
The shades of blue also depend on the style of the wedding event. They start from an almost black tone and end with a translucent pale cornflower blue. The shades include cool and warm tones. To especially emphasize some part of the outfit, it is possible to use several shades of blue.
Creating a chic image for a newlywed will cost quite a lot!
Variety of models and styles
Bridal dresses usually have a special style. Most often, products are presented in such options as "Ball", "Princess", "Godet". Empire style or products in the Greek style are perfect for blue colors of the material. Models are united by a length that always reaches the floor, decoration in the form of a cascade, pleats or drapery, as well as multi-layering made of lace. The blue mini wedding dress does not lose popularity. The model is distinguished by femininity, an innocent style in the style of "hipsters". An interesting option is considered to be a bustier dress, which is distinguished by voluminous decoration on one shoulder. Of interest are original transformable dresses, which during the marriage registration look to the floor, and when the ceremony is over, they turn into a bright model for a cocktail party.
For sewing a wedding dress in blue, airy fabrics are usually used: chiffon, taffeta, silk fabric. But designers increasingly use velvet, panne velvet, cotton for sewing blue models. To emphasize the airiness of the bride's outfit, much attention is paid to tulle, lace, translucent chiffon. The aristocratic nobility of the tone is successfully emphasized by embroidery with metallic or silk threads, decorations in the form of pearl elements, semi-precious stones.
The blue dress is perfect for gothic, country, and nautical styles!
White dress options with blue elements
Wedding dresses with blue elements are trendy for several reasons. Blue means devotion, white means purity, so they are a great combination for registering a marriage and continuing the celebration. Blue and white models are created in a variety of styles: maxi, mini, multi-layered, narrow, straight, with inserts on the chest, waist, at the bottom of the garment, on the sleeves. Various elements help to make the image of the bride in a blue and white dress spectacular:
- satin or lace ribbons;
- bows;
- feathers;
- flowers.
Lace or satin ribbons
If you want to emphasize your waist, it is better to choose a model where blue or light blue ribbons are attached to the belt. The element will perfectly suit various styles. The blue satin belt can be so long that it turns into a train, which can be narrow, decorated with applique or embroidered patterns. The universal combination of white and blue is suitable for a summer and winter wedding. In summer, such a tandem is associated with marine themes, in winter - with frosty weather. In order for the bride's image to match the overall style, accessories are used: shoes, a bouquet, a petticoat.
Bow
A bow is used to add brightness, emphasize the advantages of the figure, and mask the disadvantages. It is fixed on the area that needs to be emphasized: shoulder, back, front, side. Bows can be large or very small, with an original shape and long edges. They should be fixed to satin ribbons, decorated with rhinestones, lace details, and embroidery. Butterfly bows harmonize well with lush dress models. If the dress is short, then a small bow on the shoulder goes well with it. To create the image of a princess, you need a huge lace bow, which should be fixed at the waist so that it turns into a train.
Feathers, flowers
A white wedding dress can be complemented with a bridal bouquet of real or artificial flowers in shades of blue. An addition in the form of exotic peacock feathers looks great. But you need to make sure that there is no overkill - there should be one large bright accessory. A very fluffy skirt decorated with several artificial feathers looks beautiful. A blue bouquet is good for such an outfit. It is not at all necessary for the color to be blue, details can be added in light blue, turquoise, ultramarine.
How to choose the right accessories
Etiquette allows the bride to use costume jewelry with her wedding dress. It is considered ideal to choose pendants and other jewelry made of precious stones in combination with a blue dress. Silver and platinum jewelry are perfect for this color. A stylish bride can wear diamonds, turquoise. You can choose jewelry depending on the type of the bride's appearance:
- For the “summer” or “winter” type, necklaces or pendants containing precious stones such as moldavite, cubic zirconia, and emerald are best suited.
- Color types “spring”, “autumn” can safely use rubies and corals.
If someone thinks that the color of the jewelry should be the same as the color of the bride's dress, then this is a mistake. This rule is only suitable for blondes who have porcelain skin. In case the white dress is decorated with blue elements, the jewelry should match the trim.
A choker, which is an original bracelet for the neck, has become a popular decoration. The choker is ideal for a model with a large neckline and open shoulders. If the bride prefers a blue bow, then it is ideal to wear a satin choker with pearl details or decorative flowers. It is also good to use a metal choker with precious or semi-precious stones that match the wedding dress.
As for shoes, they should not stand out too much. When choosing shoes, there are some nuances:
- The best option is sandals or pumps in a classic style, but with the condition that they should match the color of the dress.
- It is possible to use classic white shoes.
- If the bride is wearing a white dress with a blue belt, then the shoes are chosen to match the color of the belt.
You can use a beautiful cape made of white fur or in the same color as your shoes. A translucent shawl made of lightweight material looks good. The hairstyle for a bride in blue also depends on the style of the outfit. For example, a classic hairstyle suits a Gothic or Greek dress, while a country style suggests loose wavy hair or a braid. Particular attention is paid to the bride's makeup. It should not be too bright, the emphasis is on the eyes.
Noble blue in the bride's clothes is very beautiful. It is important that the bride's image in blue is light and airy, with perfectly selected accessories, but in no case overloaded with elements of this color.
