The holiday season is a time of magic, celebration, and sparkling beauty, making it a perfect inspiration for bridal fashion. At Ivory & Main Curvy Bridal Boutique, we love helping curvy brides find gowns that reflect their unique style and capture the spirit of this festive time of year. If you’re a bride planning a holiday wedding, or you simply love the glamour and warmth of the season, here are some stunning bridal gown trends to inspire you.


1. Metallic Magic

Nothing says “holiday sparkle” quite like metallic accents. Metallics bring a luminous touch to any bridal look, whether its shimmering gold embroidery, silver metallic patterns, or rose gold beading. Gowns with metallic details are perfect for candlelit ceremonies and glittering receptions. For curvy brides, strategically placed metallic elements can highlight your favorite features, such as a cinched waist or a dramatic neckline.


2. Luxurious Lace

Lace is a timeless fabric that feels even more enchanting during the holidays. Consider gowns with intricate lace sleeves, illusion necklines, or full lace overlays. For added holiday charm, look for designs featuring floral or snowflake-inspired lace patterns. Lace gowns exude elegance and are a beautiful choice for brides seeking a classic yet festive look.


3. Bold and Beautiful Colors

Holiday-inspired bridal gowns are breaking tradition with rich, bold colors. Deep reds, emerald greens, and sapphire blues are making their way into the bridal world, offering a unique twist for brides who want to embrace the season’s palette. Jewel-toned gowns are especially stunning on curvy brides, creating a striking silhouette while exuding confidence and sophistication. Don't want your whole gown to be in color? Talk to our custom design studio about adding some jewel-toned details or accessories to your bridal look.


4. Velvet Elegance

Velvet is synonymous with winter luxury. Bridal gowns or accessories incorporating velvet details—such as a sash, cape, or bodice accent—add depth and richness to a holiday-inspired look. The soft texture of velvet pairs beautifully with curvier silhouettes, offering both comfort and glamour. Our custom design studio can create custom velvet pieces perfect for the winter season.


5. Illusion and Sparkle

Illusion bodices and sparkling tulle skirts are another way to channel holiday magic. Imagine walking down the aisle in a gown that glistens like freshly fallen snow. These details create a whimsical, dreamy aesthetic that feels right at home in a winter wedding setting.


6. Festive Accessories

Don’t forget the finishing touches! Accessories can enhance your holiday-inspired bridal look. Consider statement earrings, jeweled hairpieces, or a faux fur stole for added warmth and style. Metallic shoes or a sparkling clutch can also tie your ensemble together, ensuring you’re the star of your winter wonderland wedding.
