It’s time for weddings and the trend for 2016 is the boho chic bride.

WHAT DOES BOHO CHIC MEAN?

The word boho refers to the style of the bohémien life, FREE AND NONCONFORMIST. The meaning evolved in the fashion field and over time has also taken hippie and gipsy connotations. The boho chic bride interprets this style in a romantic, elegant and slightly retro key.

WHEN IS A BOHO CHIC WEDDING RECOMMENDED?

The boho chic style has a strong appeal to nature and outdoors. It’s therefore ideal for all those marriage with a BUCOLIC ATMOSPHERE: from the Tuscan countryside to a farmhouse. Style and decorations will be country and informal: lines tablecloths, wildflower and candles.

THE BOHO CHIC WEDDING DRESS 

In general, the wedding dress should be coherent with the context where the wedding is celebrated. Therefore, in this case long wedding trains and wide skirts are prohibited. The boho chic bride can choose a vintage dress or a 70s style dress with soft lines. Fabrics are light and have LACES.

HAIRSTYLES FOR THE BOHO CHIC BRIDE

Hair follows the romantic and natural style of the dress: they would be down or half-up. Updo hairstyles are also beautiful, but the common denominator is the SOFTNESS: hair is never too tight. Inevitable elements are braids and flowers on the hair.

BOHO CHIC WEDDING SHOES

Back to nature, informal style and hippie appeal suggest FLAT AND DECORATED SANDALS. Of course, flat shoes are not for all: if you need a few extra inches (it never hurts, especially with a long dress), choose shoes with a vintage style, like the one of Kate Moss.

THE BOUQUET OF THE BOHO CHIC BRIDE

About the bouquet and other floral decorations, WILDFLOWERS will be featured. Nothing has to be too rigid or composed! The bouquet of the boho chic bride will be almost random, deliberately messy (or fake messy). Green light to flowers in season, even those that grow wild in meadows.

THE BOHO CHIC BRIDE’S ENTOURAGE

The other protagonists of the wedding that support the bride will follow the same free and natural style. Here are some pictures of adult and children BRIDESMAIDS, with boho clothes and hairstyles. Very special friends, those with four legs, can’t miss and will support and accompany the bride…
