Wedding Dresses 2027 — Trends, Silhouettes and Colours for the New Season
The new Demetrios 2027 collection has arrived at Areti, and with it come the trends that will define the wedding season. If you are planning a 2027 wedding, this guide will help you get oriented fast: which silhouettes are back, which fabrics lead, and the details you will see most often on the runway and at real weddings. Every example is from the 2027 collection, which you can try on in person in Sofia.
The silhouettes of 2027: mermaid and clean A-line
Two silhouettes dominate the new season. The mermaid is back strong — fitted to the body down to the knee, then flaring out to accentuate the curves. In the 2027 collection it often comes with a detachable overskirt, giving two looks in one gown: dramatic for the ceremony, lighter for the party.
Opposite it stands the clean A-line — versatile, elegant and flattering on almost every figure. New for 2027 is the basque waist: a soft accent at the waistline that lengthens the figure and makes the transition into the skirt more graceful. If you are unsure which silhouette is yours, take the free "Which dress suits you?" quiz or browse the mermaid gowns.
The fabrics: French lace, sparkling tulle and structured mikado
Fabric decides a gown's character. This year shows three clear directions:
- Beaded and French lace — the most romantic choice, often hidden under airy tulle for depth and texture. Browse the lace wedding dresses.
- Sparkling tulle — light, voluminous and striking in photos. It catches the light without adding weight, a favourite for brides who want shine without satin.
- Structured mikado and satin — for a modern, clean look. The dense fabric holds its shape and reads expensive with minimal embellishment.
Many 2027 styles combine two fabrics in one gown, so you do not have to choose between romance and clean lines — you can have both.
Colours: beyond classic white
Pure white stays, but more and more brides choose warmer, more photogenic shades. For 2027 the leaders are ivory, a nude underlay beneath the lace for a natural skin-tone effect, and combinations like ivory/sheer/nude that add depth in photos. These tones suit most skin types and read soft and expensive in both daylight and evening light.
The details you will see everywhere
- Detachable sleeves and overskirts — one dress, several looks. Long sleeves for the church, off for the party.
- Sweetheart and straight necklines — a classic returning in modern form, often with thin straps.
- Basque waist — the soft accent at the waist that marks the 2027 season.
- Cathedral trains — the long train is back for a more ceremonial look.
When to choose your dress for a 2027 wedding
The most sought-after styles and sizes go first, and alterations take extra time. We recommend choosing your gown 6–9 months before the wedding. If your wedding is in summer 2027, autumn and winter 2026 is the comfortable time to decide. Read more about timing in our guide on when to buy your wedding dress.
Try the trends in person
Trends look good in photos, but the real decision is made at the fitting. At the Areti salon in Lozenets you can try on the whole 2027 collection with no limit on the number of styles, a personal stylist consultation and alterations in our own atelier. Book a fitting and come see which silhouette and fabric are yours.
