Wedding Dress Fabrics

Our wedding dresses in Royal Palm Beach are made from the most beautiful fabrics. If you've never been wedding dress shopping, you may not realize the vast amount of fabrics that your dress can be made from. Each fabric will create a different look for each gown and depending on the look you are going for will determine which type of dress fabric is right for you. Today, our bridal boutique in South Florida would like to share with you a few of the popular fabric types.


Tulle

This fabric is a sheer netting which can be made of silk, nylon, or rayon. Tulle is the fabric that tutus are made of, and for wedding dresses, it is generally used to make full, bouncy skirts and for veils.

Satin

Possibly the most often used due to its extreme versatility, durability, and style, this fabric has a smooth, somewhat shiny finish and lots of body. It works beautifully for creating gowns that are ruched, draped, or structured in any way. It is a heavier fabric, perfect for weddings in cooler temperatures, but equally wonderful for those in warmer settings.

Organza

Organza is sheer and lightweight, which makes it a nice choice for summer weddings. It is stiffer than chiffon, much like tulle is, yet still light and ethereal to wear. You will see this often used for skirts, sleeves, backs, and overlays.


Lace

Wedding dress overlays are usually made with some variety of lace, and there is a wide variety of those. Below are three of our favorites that are very popular for elegant bridal gowns.


Chantilly

This detailed type of lace is named for its origin city, Chantilly, France. Delicate flowers and dainty ribbons give it a very light, romantic, and sometimes vintage look.

Alencon

This is another French style lace that was used as early as the 16th century. The bold motifs have a distinct floral pattern, along with the appearance of a 3-D effect.

Guipure

Bold, interwoven patterns make up Guipure lace, looking a lot like macrame or a type of embroidery. A bride can make a very dramatic statement in a gown with this detail. It is a little heavier than other laces and works best on gowns with a structured shape.

This is only a small selection of the many different fabrics that a wedding gown can be made from!
