As we look ahead to the wedding trends of 2025, one fabric stands out above the rest: crepe.
Known for its elegant drape and luxurious feel, crepe dresses are set to be the must-have choice for brides who want to combine timeless sophistication with modern style. Following in trend with the “Clean Girl Aesthetic” that is currently taking the bridal world by storm, crepe styles can be simple or more ornate while still fitting the bill.
If you are wedding dress shopping and looking at of all of the gorgeous and romantic bridal gowns, it can seem a bit overwhelming. A good place to start is to answer the question, “What do you see yourself wearing walking down the aisle?” If you are thinking along the lines of simple and elegant wedding dresses, the Clean Girl Aesthetic may apply to you! Consider dresses made from the luxurious crepe fabric.

Crepe Is For Every Body!
One of the standout features of crepe fabric is its ability to flatter the figure. Crepe is slightly stretchy, which allows it to hug the body in all the right places while still providing enough structure to create a smooth, streamlined silhouette. This makes it an excellent choice for brides who want to emphasize their curves without sacrificing comfort.
There is a common misconception that not all body types can wear a crepe gown and that you have to be a standard size 6 or 8. This is absolutely incorrect! Some of our most popular and best-selling crepe wedding gowns come from our plus size bridal collection!
Madi Lane Jona
Jona is a crowd favorite amongst our plus size brides for the way the gown emphasizes the bride’s curves. Jona is a square neck fit and flare with a low back and a delicate tulle bow detail. So lovely!
Sophia Tolli Beatrice
Brides have also been loving Beatrice! This gown features a leafy lace, plunged bodice with a sheath skirt with the added option of a detachable tulle train. Perfect in plus size, the lace straps and full cups support the bust, and the scooped illusion back with full button line are romantic and modern touches.
Essense of Australia D3930
Another curvy crepe gown brides adore is the D3930. This fit and flare has a sheer lace and bead bodice with deep side plunges, a leaf and illusion back, and an incredible scalloped train with lace cutouts.

2025 Crepe Trend
In 2025, crepe wedding dresses will continue to capture the hearts of brides everywhere. The ethereal beauty of the gowns can be felt immediately upon trying on. You can choose the type of crepe – maybe lined in charmeuse and a layered heavy crepe (lovely in the colder months), or in a lightweight crepe (lends beautifully for the spring and summer affairs). Once you find your best fit and style, you can explore those with lace or beading details or keep it crisp and clean.
Their blend of elegance, comfort, and timeless beauty makes them a perfect choice for any wedding style. Whether you’re drawn to the flattering fit or the variety of designs, a crepe wedding dress promises to make your special day even more unforgettable.
