Look your big-day best with help from Blush by Jena Louise

Finding your dream gown couldn't be easier with help from Blush by Jena Louise. We caught up with the owner Jena to discover what dresses will be trending this year. She says, "The year 2021 promises to give me the highest call for my seamstress skills in 15 years. After a year indoors, brides are reappearing out of lockdown with amazing ideas for their wedding gowns. The marry now party later concept has made couples focus on celebrating with their close family and social bubbles. As weddings are being scaled back to focus on the intimate ceremony, more emphasis is being centred on a personal soft wedding outfit.

"Despite simple classic shapes such as fit-and-flare skirts or simple soft tulle shapes remaining popular, customers want to customise their gowns to create bespoke details on their wedding dress. Tulle is becoming a staple in my studio as soft fabrics are taking centre focus. I’m being asked to add fluffy capped sleeves into shouldered gowns to create a relaxed touch, and help the bride feel comfortable with problem areas such as the backs of their arms. 

"Handmade single-layered veils are becoming even more popular to add rich texture to the simple soft laces in gowns. Pairing this tulle bohemian look with traditionally structured bodices helps the post-lockdown bride feel excited about finally saying ‘I do’."
