Bridal Fashion Week Fall 2019 Preview Sketches
See All of the Latest Wedding Dresses

There's no better time than right now to be engaged. Why? Fall 2019 Bridal Fashion Week is just around the corner, and that means we're about to be treated to a whole array of brand-new, beautiful wedding dresses. Twice a year, bridal fashion designers debut their latest collections in New York City, giving brides-to-be a first look at the trends to watch for. But before they do that, they give Martha Stewart Weddings an inside look at their wedding dress designs and the inspiration behind each new collection.

This season, 62 designers gave us a sneak peek at what's to come, and you can trust us when we say the looks do not disappoint. One overarching trend? Old Hollywood glamour, which multiple designers site as this season's inspiration. Statement-making silhouettes, long trains, and vintage-inspired details that any big screen starlet would have love to wear are all on order. Another form of inspiration that came up over and over again? Nature. From flowers to the seasons, many of these bridal fashion designers looked outside for new ideas. But those aren't the only ways these designers were inspired as they created their newest wedding dresses. One collection was inspired by (and named after!) a Rolling Stones song; another used today's modern bride as its muse; others still were inspired by favorite places, including Iceland, Oregon, and a family ranch in Idaho.

To see how all of these ideas came to life, click through to check out sketches and inspiration from our favorite bridal designers, then check back to see how your wedding dresses came to life on the runways.

Alexandra Grecco

For her latest collection, designer Alexandra Grecco drew inspiration from a recent vacation in Italy. "One of my favorite memories was walking through an olive grove, listening to the crickets and taking in the untamed beauty of it all, which led to the inspiration for this collection," she says. "I wanted the gowns to feel really wild with lots of bold floral embroideries." Tying the knot in a wild garden? Then you'll connect with Grecco's latest designs, which she says were created with this specific venue type in mind.

Allison Webb

If you're looking for a supremely elegant wedding dress, consider Allison Webb's latest collection. "It's an ode to dramatic simplicity; clean lines, fresh textures, and classic details converge to create gowns that are simultaneously modern yet timeless," Webb explains. This season, the designer drew inspiration from an unexpected muse: the fabrics themselves. Expect to see plenty of French micro sequins, Italian floral jacquards, and silk faille. And, as evidenced by this sketch, there will be at least one incredibly architectural number in the collection.

Then you'll want to watch closely when Anne Barge sends her latest collection of wedding dresses down the runway, as she said this type of woman would be most likely to choose her latest styles. "Look beyond what meets the eye; the Anne Barge Fall 2019 Bridal Collection is full of mystery and surprise," the designer explains. "Past the clean, graphic lines of the collection lies layers of rich detail and meticulous craftsmanship. This season, inspiration is taken from perspective photography, with each dress open to interpretation based on the viewer's lens."

If "sexy," "figure-flattering," and "unique" are buzzwords you'd use to describe your dream wedding dress, keep a lookout for Berta's Fall 2019 bridal collection. The designer is known for toeing the line between sensual and demure, and their sneak peek sketch proves they're back at it again this season. With a high neckline and what appears to be illusion detailing, this silhouette looks like it will deliver the brand's signature aesthetic.

"There is a mood-lifting charm about this season; only kind and happy thoughts allowed," Hayley Paige says of her latest designs for her Blush collection. Inspired by a summer packed with love, travel, and laughter, Paige strove to create a selection of joyous designs. And what could be more fitting for a wedding dress than that? The Fawn gown, seen here, is actually a two-in-one style, complete with a detachable overskirt for the bride who wants a little versatility.

"Carole Lombard, one of the beloved leading ladies of Hollywood's Golden Age, largely inspired this collection," says designer Catherine Kowalski. "Her impeccable style and zest for life had a strong influence on the design process of each gown and the overall aesthetic of the collection." Just take a look at the sketch here and you'll understand how that inspiration came to life—the layered bodice looks like something an Old Hollywood starlet would have worn.

With a goal of creating timeless, spectacular wedding dresses for each of their brides, the brand is known for quality and style. This season the designer was inspired by Claude Monet's home and gardens, which feature hundreds of different flowers and plants, so that means brides-to-be can expect plenty of floral inspiration from this collection.

Call it the Meghan Markle effect: Off-the-shoulder wedding dresses will surely rule the latest bridal fashion runways. Case in point: This brand-new design from David's Bridal. "We wanted a gown with an off-the-shoulder neckline to frame the face," the brand's designers say. "Something that felt a little more contemporary but was still timeless. We think we got the balance right with the more traditional lace hand appliqued bodice, but the sheer sleeve, mermaid silhouette, and soft skirt to reflect the more relaxed trend in bridal."

"We designed a simple, short-sleeved, delicate Venise lace illusion bodice with a stunning open back," the Galina designers say.

Lakum's latest collection, dubbed "Nonlinear," explores the idea of trying to find true love. "We modern day humans shift, often moving in circles around each other before the effect of time and space bring us together," the designer says. "I looked to Kandinsky and the Georgian sculptor Tamara Kvesitzadze for inspiration. Specifically, her piece 'Ali and Nino' which involves two humans moving through one another." That color you see in the slit of the "Anjali" gown featured here? It's the brand's latest embroidery, a collection of floral appliques, laser-cut leather flowers, and stones.

Wedding dresses can be described as many things, but "light" often isn't one of them. That is, until brides-to-be get a hold of LEIN's latest bridal collection. "I wanted to make easy, lightweight pieces from cotton and linen with tiny details to elevate a simple silhouette," says founder and designer Meredith Stoecklein. "I love the weight of all the fabrics from this collection; they are easy, natural, and can be packed up and ready for the honeymoon." Inspired by summers spent at her family's ranch in Idaho, the newest designs are unique, relaxed, and beautiful. Spoiler alert: You may even see a gingham number in the mix!

Hollywood has always been a source of inspiration for the designers at Oleg Cassini, and this season was no exception. The dress seen here, a hand-appliqued lace column gown with a full tulle overskirt, reminded them of something a silver screen starlet would have worn to a movie premier.

Dubbed "Snow Flake Queen," Persy's latest collection was inspired by the transition between seasons. "We were deeply inspired by how a delicate flower can metamorphosis into something stiff and frozen in the peak of winter, when ice covers everything, and catches moments in time," Yaniv Persy says. It's only fitting that there's plenty of snow-inspired elements on the brand's Fall 2019 collection, including Swarovski beading.
