Think back to all of your favorite childhood fairytales. Thrilling adventures, flying dragons, magical fairies, and a gorgeous dress (or ten). In 2025, we’ve captured that magic in layers of tulle, touches of gold, and finished with a veil of pure romance. Oh yeah, the fairytale wedding is back! But this time, it’s reimagined with the Modern Renaissance…where historical elegance meets today’s effortless, expressive style.
Our Modern Renaissance capsule collection has officially launched and honestly? No notes. Take “happily ever after” from a storyline to a silhouette in the form of romantic bridal gowns, ethereal bridesmaid dresses, and awe-inspiring accessories worthy of a princess.
What Defines a Fairytale Wedding?
Today’s fairytale wedding isn’t about recreating a scene from a storybook; it’s about writing your own. It’s blending romantic silhouettes with artisan craftsmanship for an aesthetic that’s dreamy without doing too much (unless doing too much is what you’re into—we won’t stop you).
- Corset Gowns: Structured bodices paired with flowing skirts offer a figure-flattering fit with a regal presence fit for a throne.
- Bridal…with Sleeves: Puff sleeves, sheer blouson shapes, and delicate lace details evoke a sense of nostalgia and whimsy. Count us in!
- Handcrafted Details: Embroidered tulle, layered jacquards, and rosette embellishments make each piece feel one-of-a-kind (without paying a one-of-a-kind price).
The Fairytale Wedding Trend is EVERYWHERE
We’re willing to bet you’ve already spent way too long scrolling through your FYP today (no judgement) but open up TikTok and you’ll spot the Modern Renaissance instantly.
