Bridal fashion has always drawn inspiration from the past, and as we step into 2025–2026, vintage-inspired gowns and celebrity styles are making a glamorous return. At Princess Bridals, we’re seeing brides gravitate toward timeless designs influenced by icons like Marilyn Monroe, Meghan Markle, and the roaring 1920s.
The Allure of the Roaring 20s
Flapper-inspired gowns with beaded details, drop waists, and flowing skirts are resurging. Brides who love vintage elegance are embracing gowns reminiscent of speakeasy sophistication—updated with modern fabrics and silhouettes available in our Long Island wedding dress collection.
Hollywood Glamour: Marilyn Monroe-Inspired Gowns
Think curve-hugging satin, sweetheart necklines, and understated sex appeal. Marilyn’s iconic style continues to inspire gowns that blend sultry elegance with timeless bridal fashion. Pair these looks with accessories from our Finishing Touches Appointment to complete the Old Hollywood vibe.
Royal Simplicity: Meghan Markle’s Legacy
When Meghan Markle wed Prince Harry, her plain yet luxurious long-sleeved gown changed bridal fashion. The focus on fabric quality, cut, and fit over embellishment is now a must-have for brides seeking understated elegance. Princess Bridals specializes in sourcing upscale fabrics for gowns that exude refinement without excess.
