You may only get married once, but Bridal Fashion Week happens twice a year, meaning innovative ideas—and new takes on old ideas—are forever renewing. Of course, we love the classics, but we're always searching for fresh silhouettes, colors, and details that make us do a double-take. From lingerie-inspired elements to capes and capelets, here's what new wedding dress styles we noticed at Spring 2017 Bridal Fashion Week.

3-D Embellishments

Three-dimensional details have the ability to transform a wedding dress into a work of art. This spring especially, we saw an explosion of texture by way of beading, appliqués, feathers, and more that seemed to reach right off the runways and into our hearts. Next stop: your closet!

Capes and Capelets

Credit: FirstView

Brides, bow down to the most regal of wedding accessories since the tiara: The cape and the capelet. Just in time for the generation that made "Yas, Queen" more than a statement but a state of mind, the Victorian piece is back and better than ever. This season's lovely caped creations offer coverage like a coat or stole and cascade down the back like a veil.

Lingerie-Inspired

Simultaneously sultry and sweet, lingerie elements have broken out of the boudoir and into bridal. And this season, designers welcomed them more warmly than ever. Think corset bodices, slinky slip dresses, oh-so-sheer fabrics, plunging necklines, and dangerously high slits à la Angelina Jolie.

(Off the) Shoulder Details

Credit: FirstView

Go and brush your shoulder off. It's your day, after all. Necklines were off the shoulder and all over the runway this season. The modest-meets-sexy, collarbone-bearing bridal look calls to mind style icons like Audrey Hepburn and Elizabeth Taylor, while all at once being decidedly modern. We saw updates on the trend, including embroidered illusion necklines, capes with 3-D detailing, and sleeves with peekaboo slits.
