Left: Sleek and sophisticated, this Ariamo jumpsuit, £899, is a dream. “A bride wearing trousers is basically the antithesis of all things wedding. It’s an empowering look and I adore the androgyny of it,” says Unbridaled Boutique ’s Emily Plunkett; right: The organza Lullaby skirt and bolero, £POA, by Liretta are certified crowd-pleasers. The sleeves on the upper half can be removed to change the look up for an evening of dancing. Available at Ayr’s Unbridaled Boutique
Left: “I love historical features done in a modern way,” Alyce Jayne Bridal’s designer Alison Malcolm reveals. The Eliana polka-dot tulle corset and skirt is most definitely a fresh take on a Bridgerton-inspired vibe, £3,250; right: Made in Chelsea’s Sophie Habboo donned a cute, corseted Vivienne Westwood mini for her home wedding. Get a similar look with the Aurora Lace gown by the esteemed British label, £POA, available at Rachel Scott Couture in Edinburgh
Left: The flutter-sleeve mini dress, £POA, from Glasgow’s Flossy and Dossy is a slice of swinging ’60s style. Flirty dresses like this are fun to wear with OTT accessories, like the statement-making veil in this instance (photo: Lena Sabala Photography ); right: “For brides seeking something out of the ordinary we might look to Australian designer Wendy Makin,” says Michelle Kelly at Kudos Bridal Boutiques (Edinburgh) . “This brand’s hallmarks are luxurious and unique fabrics and simple styles with unexpected details, such as the pearl-dotted sleeves of this Pearl gown.” £POA
Left: A bride wearing the trousers? Yes please! With puff sleeves and a deep V-back, the Seraphine jumpsuit by Wendy Makin, £POA, wouldn’t look out of place on the Studio 54 dancefloor. Available at Reflections Bridal Boutique ; right: “We are seeing brides step away from more ‘traditional’ gowns; instead, we’ve found that they want to show more skin in styles with splits and tattoo lace,” Chloe at Kelso’s Reflections Bridal Boutique tells us. The Amalfi skirt and Lulu top, £POA, by Wendy Makin ticks these boxes
Left: The puff bow sleeves and detachable train option give Essense of Australia’s style D3822 an alternative edge, but take them off, and you have a look that’ll keep your inner-traditionalist happy. “This style is clean-cut and modern and I love its pleated sweetheart bodice. Its removable elements makes it great for a bride who wants it all,” says Megan Carberry at Kudos Bridal Boutiques (Dunfermline) ; right: Add a pop of colour into your look with the Lavinia veil from Maggie Sottero, available at Kudos Dunfermline
