3D Floral: New York Bridal Market Wedding Dress Trends
Although we weren’t able to make it out to NYC this year for the Fall 2012 bridal fashion week, we have devoured hundreds of wedding blogs and coverage to determine what the major trends were.
Once we have the top trends in place, our goal is to help smart brides like you get that trend for less.

One of the big trends we spotted this year is 3D floral details on wedding dresses. Sometime these flowers were all over the dress (like the Reem Acra above left), other times a bit more sparingly for effect (a la Angel Sanchez above right).
