As we observed at New York Bridal Fashion Week last October, bridal minis are one of the hottest trends for the 2025 season. More designers are incorporating them into their collections, increasing awareness and variety in this trend. Traditionally, wedding gowns have been viewed as solely floor-length dresses made from lace, chiffon, and satin. However, this new style is a fantastic way to add some excitement to bridal wear. Plus, a shorter gown showcases those carefully chosen wedding heels! If you’re looking for a bridal mini, we have some hot picks to inspire you.
For the bride who fancies detailed and extraordinary styles, check out the “Bardot” mini from Netta Benshabu or the “Anastasia” mini from Bronx and Banco. Both looks made their debut on the NYBFW runway and are absolute showstoppers for the ceremony OR the after-party.


Does simplicity suit you best? The stunning Sien Richer “Macpherson” mini or the Thalia Paul “Tirqouse” mini are perfect choices to consider. Their soft simplicity radiates elegance throughout the venue.


Last but full of love we have the “Wild Rose Pearl Tassel” mini by Hermione de Paula and the “Lulu” mini by Pronovias. These two strapless minis are perfect for the floral-loving bride to show off at any point in her wedding.


If you are embracing the short wedding dress trend or just hoping to stun the crowd with a mini dress at your reception, we hope these recommendations have inspired you on your search!
