For decades bridal dresses have led the way.
But, that all changed in 2018, as celebrities ditched tradition in order to champion trousers for their wedding celebrations.
Putting a contemporary spin on bridal wear, Priyanka Chopra recently stunned in a pale peach crop top and trousers by Ralph and Russo for her pre-wedding ceremony. A look which was reminiscent of Amal Clooney's Stella McCartney two-set during her 2014 Venetian civil ceremony to George Clooney.
In 2018 Gwyneth Paltrow also shimmied into a Stella McCartney jumpsuit during her wedding reception in September. A modern bridal look that was first debuted by fashion-forward Solange Knowles, who broke the bridal mould when she cycled to her ceremony in 2014 wearing a cream Stephane Rolland jumpsuit.
Millie Mackintosh also went for an alternative bridal look, arriving at Chelsea Old Town Hall in a Bianca Jagger-inspired sleek white ensemble made up of Max Mara trousers, a Les Heroine trumpet sleeved top and wide brim hat.
If you want to embrace the modern bridal trend, here are three designers to go to:
1. Stella McCartney
The fashion house behind Gwyneth Paltrow and Amal Clooney's alternative bridal looks revealed its first bridal collection this year and among a replica of Meghan Markle's famous wedding reception dress were two stand-out trouser designs.
The contemporary collection puts a new perspective on modern bridal dressing by featuring one impeccably tailored all-white suit, as well as a figure-hugging jumpsuit covered in traditional lace detail.
2. Andrea Hawkes
