Unconventional Wedding Dress Ideas for Rebel Brides


For a rebel bride that’s always pushing the envelope and looking for something different, bridal gown shopping among the ocean of ballgowns can get tedious! We get it: you want to look classic, but still be fresh and unique for your special day. And it seems we’re not the only one, here are three unique ideas from the latest Oscar de la Renta collection to inspire brides seeking something beyond the fluffy white dress.

She’s a Rebel

A mix of classic Oscar de la Renta silhouettes and floral motifs with modern elements is just what the doctor ordered. But wait, a slight change, white denim jacket’s embroidered with ‘Just Married’ across the back have been accessorised with statement jewellery to heat things up. Getting married on a beach? Keep it casual with basic tees and tutus – dare we suggest canvas footwear?

 

Rebel in the Rye

If a ballgown seems so far from your style, perhaps a silver sequin corset and and illusion neckline is more up your alley. True to the designers word, these unconventional wedding ensembles are as light as air — nothing too stiff or plain. Got a thing for stretched blazers and ponte bottoms? You too can be a rebel of paradise, pretty in clean, crisp outerwear.

 

Rebel Without a Cause

Little Bo-Peep goes chic! The creative directors of Oscar de la Renta were inspired by sashes, ferns and foliage that soon became the inspiration for embroideries. From a fitted bandaged gown to an abundance of tulle strapped around a high-low dress, channel your rebellious nature with the unusual attire perfect for any season.
