One of the New Hottest Trends - Bridal Separates Including Crop Top Two-Piece Wedding Outfits!

I hesitate to call them "Wedding Gowns" because they aren't one piece, most being tops with separate skirts, pants, shorts, skirts, overskirts, a gown with pants, and sometimes even three pieces together. Bridal Separates are a great idea for personalizing a look and allowing a bride to create a vision for herself that feels unique and right for her. Being able to mix colours, fabrics, casual with formal, sweaters with lace, halters with tulle, adding colourful ribbons - the combinations can be as individual as the bride herself.

Socialite and reality tv actress and style-blogger Olivia Palermo brought Bridal Separates into the spotlight when she chose to wear a unique 3-piece Carolina Herrera outfit for her wedding to Johannes Huebl earlier this year. Featured on her blog, the outfit is described as:

As unusual as it may seem, I love that look of a long sleeved sweater paired with a feminine, flowy and delicate skirt...

Separates allow a bride to choose a colourful skirt that can offer a pop of colour tying in with the wedding flowers and decor, as well as adding warmth and freshness to a wedding. The gorgeous bridal shoot "Coral & Rose-Gold Wedding Inspiration" by Mirelle Carmichael + Noonan’s Wine Country Designs and featured on the Green Wedding Shoes blog has the bride in a bright white crop tank, a Watters blush skirt paired with a bright scarlet ribbon that picks up the shades of scarlet, pink and coral in her beautiful bridal bouquet, floral headpiece and altar decor.

Crop top Bridal Separates are perfect for the beach bride. They can allow a bohemian bride a casual and feminine vibe, or a more formal full skirt lets for the bride who wants that touch of princess and still feel beachy and fun.

Destination Wedding Attire can be a little more risque, especially if the wedding is being held on a tropical island where it's perfectly acceptable for the bride to wear a bikini top with a lace wrap skirt or something sheer or adorned with sparkly starfish

In addition to beach casual and destination-exotic, Bridal Separates can also be surprisingly elegant.

And last but not least, separate corsets which can be embellished to the nth degree for the bridal who loves bling with huge ballgown skirts to complete the Cinderella look many brides dream of. My Lady Designs, for instance, creates a variety of corsets and gowns that can be mixed and matched to 
create a bride's dream dress.
