      Convenience: Short wedding dresses are usually more comfortable to wear than long dresses. They offer more freedom of movement and are lighter because they generally require less material. This can be particularly beneficial at weddings where there is a lot of dancing.

      The break with tradition and the increasing acceptance of short wedding dresses is an interesting trend in bridal fashion that can be traced back to a modern view of weddings and the individual wedding dress.

      Modern brides are increasingly breaking with traditional ideas about weddings and bridal fashion. Many prefer weddings that reflect their personality, and that often includes choosing a non-traditional wedding dress without a veil or train. Short wedding dresses offer the opportunity to wear something unique and personal.

      Different wedding types and locations: Weddings are increasingly no longer just taking place in the church or at the registry office. Beaches, gardens, city parks and rustic locations are now popular locations to get married and celebrate with your loved ones. Short wedding dresses are often more practical and appropriate for these environments.

      Availability and Selection: With the increasing demand for short wedding dresses, more and more bridal stores and designers are offering a wide range of options. This means brides have more choices.

      Inspiration from Celebrities and Influencers: Celebrities and influencers who have worn short wedding dresses have helped promote this trend and serve as role models for modern brides.

      Society in general is becoming more open to different wedding styles and looks. This means that brides are increasingly daring to deviate from traditional expectations.

      Overall, the trend towards short wedding dresses shows that brides today are looking for more freedom and self-determination when it comes to their wedding and their wedding dress. It's important to note that choosing a wedding dress is about wearing what you feel most comfortable in and what best suits your personality. The break with tradition and acceptance of short wedding dresses is a reflection of these changing attitudes and preferences.

      Short wedding dresses: The most popular styles and designs

      Short wedding dresses come in different styles and cuts to suit the different preferences of brides. We present the most popular styles to you here:

      A-line: An A-line dress has a narrow waist and a skirt that opens downward to create an "A" shaped silhouette. A-line dresses are classic and flattering on most body types.

      Sheath: A sheath dress is tight-fitting and emphasizes the figure. It often has a simple and elegant aesthetic that fits well with minimalist or modern weddings.

      Tutu or Ballerina: This type of dress has a full tulle skirt and is reminiscent of a ballerina tutu. It gives the look a playful and fairytale touch.

      Lace: Lace dresses are romantic and timeless. They can be short sleeves or strapless and often have beautiful, detailed lace embellishments.

      Fit and Flare: A short fit-and-flare dress emphasizes the waist and then has a skirt that opens at the bottom. This style creates an elegant silhouette and is suitable for brides who want to accentuate their curves.

      Boho or Vintage: Boho or vintage-inspired short wedding dresses are often loose and flowing dresses with romantic details such as lace, floral patterns or fringe.

      Simple wedding dresses: Minimalist short wedding dresses are purist and understated, often without excessive embellishments or details. They are ideal for brides who prefer a clean, modern and uncomplicated look.

      Which short wedding dresses suit which body type?

      Short wedding dresses can flatter different body types, provided you choose the right silhouette and cut.

      A-Line: A short A-line dress is a versatile choice and fits well on most body types. It accentuates the waist and then falls loosely over the hips and thighs and can help balance the silhouette.

      Pear-Shaped: If you have a pear-shaped figure where your hips are wider than your shoulders, a short A-line dress or sheath dress can balance the figure and draw attention to the waist.

      Hourglass: A short dress with a fitted fit that accentuates the natural hourglass figure can highlight your curves. Fit-and-flare dresses are a good choice.

      Apple-shaped: If you have an apple-shaped body, a short dress with a high waist can draw attention to the narrowest part, your waist.

      Rectangular: For a rectangular body type where shoulders, waist and hips are approximately the same width, short dresses with ruffles or ruffles at the hips can create additional shape and volume.

      Short Stature: For brides with short stature, short wedding dresses can create the illusion of longer legs and enhance the impression of size and height. However, avoid dresses that are too voluminous, as they tend to compress the figure.

      Tall stature: Tall brides can wear short wedding dresses that show off their legs and make them appear smaller. High-low dresses that are short in the front and long in the back can also be a good choice.

      Plus Size: There are many short plus size wedding dresses that are specifically designed for curvy brides. Look for models with a good, comfortable fit and structure that flatter your figure.

      The best accessories accompanying short wedding dresses

      Choosing the right accessories for your short wedding dress also depends on your personal style and your wedding theme. We present the most popular bridal accessories to you here:

      Veil: A short bridal veil that reaches around the shoulder or elbow can add a romantic touch to your look. You could also pair a flower crown or hair accessory with a short veil or wear it as an alternative headpiece.

      Jewelry: Delicate jewelry such as pearl earrings, necklaces and bracelets go well with short wedding dresses. Anything you like is allowed. But still pay attention to a balanced ratio of jewelry and dress. Since you have already chosen a less traditional, short-length wedding dress, make sure that the jewelry you choose complements your outfit harmoniously.

      Hair accessories: Headbands, hairpins or hair combs with pearl or rhinestone embellishments are a great way to customize your wedding look. They act as little eye-catchers and usually suit every hairstyle and hair color.

      Belt or sash: A narrow bridal belt or sash around the waist gives the dress shape and flatteringly emphasizes the waist.

      Shoes: Special bridal shoes in a striking color or with sparkling details can add a great accent. A very clear advantage of short wedding dresses, which we haven't mentioned yet, is that your pretty shoes don't disappear under a floor-length skirt and thus make a grand entrance. As with all other wedding dresses, the following applies here: comfortable shoes that are easy to wear all day long and don't pinch or cause blisters are the most important thing!

      Gloves: Short or long gloves can add a touch of vintage charm, especially if they're made of lace.

      Bag: A small handbag or clutch in a matching color can be both practical and stylish.
