Wedding Dresses Come In Many Shades of "White"

To the untrained eye, most wedding dresses are thought to be white. In reality, what your guests see as "white" is most likely another color, or rather a different shade of a classic white. Our bridal boutique in Miami, as well as our online wedding dress store, feature an array of exquisite bridal gowns in many different shades to compliment any woman's skin coloring and bring out her natural beauty on the wedding day.

Brides of America is here to help you find the wedding dress that looks amazing on you, and sometimes the color of the gown plays a huge part in the one that looks the best. White, ivory, and champagne colored dresses can look very similar from a distance, but they each have their own special qualities. 

Back in the 1980's, nearly every single wedding dress sold was made with white fabric. No one was interested in an ivory bridal gown, but this is mainly because in the '80's ivory had a very yellow tint to it. 

Eventually, designers began using an ivory that was much softer and more pleasant to the eye. In the 1990's, bridal gown sales changed and nearly half of the dresses being purchased were ivory, and the other half were white.

Currently, those numbers have shifted even more. The women that shop in our wedding dress store in South Florida are more interested in ivory gowns, or combinations of ivory and another similar color. About 50% of the wedding dresses sold by Brides of America are ivory, 40% of them are either ivory/gold, ivory/champagne, or ivory caramel, and only 10% of our brides choose to wear actual white.

When you come in for your wedding dress shopping appointment, the talented consultants at our Miami bridal boutique can help you narrow down which shades look the best on your particular skin-tone, as well as which shapes and styles flatter your body the most. Our goal is for you to have that magical moment when you look in the mirror wearing the bridal gown that was made to be worn by you and know, without a doubt, that it is "the one!"
