The pandemic has changed a lot about our daily lives, including how women approach their all-important wedding day<\/a>. We’ve been forced to swap big white weddings for intimate ceremonies and scale-down affairs. In turn, our fairytale gowns have been completely reimagined for laidback silky numbers and mini lace frocks. And according to Australian bridal wear designer, Cathleen Jia<\/a>, the blush wedding dress has returned to transform the standard white dress.<\/p>\n

“For a long time, we’ve been programmed to think a bride must be in white,” Jia says following the release of her latest styles<\/a>.\u00a0 “But historically, this has not always been the case, the popularity of stark white dresses really took off in the 80’s. I do think this is changing, it will take a little longer for blush to compete with a white gown. But modern brides nowadays are sure of who they are, and if they want to wear blush, they will do it.”<\/p>\n

In 1969 on January 18, actress Audrey Hepburn<\/a> tied the knot with Italian psychiatrist Dr. Andrea Dotti. Not one for the conventional, Hepburn famously wore a blush, long-sleeve shift dress by Givenchy. You will also recall that more recently Mandy Moore<\/a> wed Taylor Goldsmith in a custom Rodarte gown crafted from pink tulle in 2018.<\/p>\n

Jia has ushered in a number of blush styles thus widening the offering of such hue. For women of minimalism – Jia’s translation: “timeless, yet modern” – she assures that “drama doesn’t need to be loud” as revealed by Hepburn and Moore<\/p>\n
