Last week, the arrival of New York Bridal Fashion Week led to a dramatic increase in the amount of lace, tulle, and taffeta seen throughout the city. With more runways, presentations, and previews than ever for the spring 2027 collections, it was clear that the bridal market has undergone a major shift in the last few years. Not only were designers competing for time slots in a packed schedule to showcase their newest wedding dresses, but many vintage bridal retailers were also making a mark on the scene as more and more to-be-weds look for “something old” for their wedding wardrobes. Despite this old-yet-new entry into the market, the latest bridal collections showcased an impressively broad mix of designs for people to wear throughout their wedding weekends.

While some designers turned towards classic constructions and materials for timeless looks, others pushed the envelope with avant-garde ensembles that are perfect for the non-traditional bride hoping to shake up their wardrobe. The entire scope of a wedding weekend was also considered, with many styles that could fare beautifully at a chic rehearsal dinner or day-after brunch. There was also a rise in tailoring and separates this season for those who might not want to wear a dress down the aisle—or could use a fun change for their after-party look.

After seeing all of these designs in person, we had to round up our favorites from this season’s top bridal brands. See the 98 best looks from New York Bridal Fashion Week to shop for your celebrations ahead.
