17 Perfect Pantsuits & Jumpsuits for the Bride

Fashion & Jewellery

Tradition puts brides in the princess-style ballgown every time, but for those of us who feel as uncomfortable in a skirt as we’re ever likely to be – why on earth should we be forced to wear one on one of the most special days of our lives!? Enter just about every great bridal designer currently on the circuit and indeed, the bridal jumpsuit.

The bridal trouser and jumpsuit has been creeping into the mainstream for a couple of years now, but it wasn’t until Amal Clooney – channelling the iconic Bianca Jagger – stepped out in the most chic of chic white Stella McCartney jumpsuit after her civil ceremony in 2014 that people started to take note. And when Solange Knowles followed suit (cough) for her wedding a couple of months later with a more daring take on the trend, fashionistas everywhere were officially captivated.

In the last few years designers have been perfecting the look and it’s going absolutely nowhere for 2016. From statement-making separates like retro style palazzo pants and sexy sheer shirts to pretty lace playsuits and rompers, anything goes when pairing your unique, iconic, alternative wedding look.

One wedding style that has us all a flutter lately is the bridal jumpsuit, and whether it comes in the form of chic streamlined cigarette pants and a dainty lace top, or full-on disco glamour with bellbottoms and a barely-there V-neck top, sign us up. Modern day non-conformists like Houghton Bride, Laure de Sagazan and the inimitable Delphine Manivet are nailing the look each and every time and giving non-traditional brides everywhere a reason to rejoice. So whether you’re a statement making fashionista looking to surprise, a civil or city bride looking for a unique getup or a bride who wants to look a little different from her wife-to-be, the time has come to wear the trousers.
