ALL TRENDS
The fashion of formal dresses 2019 is based on three fundamental trends:
1-The trouser suit will worthily replace the long formal dresses for the whole of 2019 and we can say, without fear of making a mistake, that wearing a male outfit at a wedding will never represent a fall in style. Whether it's a jumpsuit or a real suit with jacket / blazer and trousers, the woman who wears it will certainly be very elegant. On the feet, remember to wear a high heel to slim the figure and highlight the clothing line.
2-Precious jackets and trousers protagonists of the catwalks. Applications of beads and sequins, creative and brilliant inserts, rhinestones and stones make a fine show of themselves on the suits of the most famous brands. Armani, for example, has dedicated a large part of its Privé line to models of this type and we have no difficulty in believing that they will be among the most loved choices of women who must participate in a wedding to which they particularly care.
3-Prints or floral applications. Well yes, the formal dresses 2019 are floral! Whether they are prints or applications, the flowers on the clothes have two particular functions, on the one hand they embellish the outfit, see Pronovias formal dresses, on the other they lighten the whole figure. If you want an elegant and romantic formal dress, but that is not heavy and austere, floral patterns are the right choice.
As for the colors, we can say that the 2019 formal wear trend presents a wide chromatic choice: the inevitable black, the traditional pastel colors, the bold bright shades such as fuchsia, yellow, Tiffany blue, green and this year, the nude look with ton sur ton applications is also very fashionable.

In the meantime, regardless of the brand you choose, here is the guide to choosing the perfect ceremony dress!
HOW TO CHOOSE THE PERFECT CEREMONY DRESS
When you choose the formal dress you must certainly take into account fashion and trends, we talked about it, but you should never underestimate the importance of your personal tastes and the type of wedding to which you have been invited. That's why it is necessary that you have a small guide at hand that will help you choose the perfect ceremony dress.
The first thing to do is to think about where the ceremony will take place and what style. If the wedding takes place in a non-formal location (farmhouse, restaurant, sea), then the suitable formal dresses are: short cocktail dress, sheath dress, asymmetrical dress, slipped, preferably with a pattern, jumpsuit or formal trouser suit. If the wedding is in a formal and ceremonial place (castle, villa, luxury hotel), the ideal ceremonial dress is long and precious mermaid, like the classics of the Empire Couture or soft and slipped, but with jewel applications, such as in the Pronovias collection.
The second thing to consider is the time of day when the wedding and the season will take place. Morning weddings require short dresses, while evening weddings can be chosen for long evening dresses. For winter weddings it is better to choose the suit, while for the ceremonies that take place in spring / summer it is better to choose a dress.
The third fundamental aspect is the degree of closeness to the spouses. If you are the witness, then agree with your spouses on your outfit, they will dictate the rules of clothing and do not forget to agree on your clothing with the other witnesses. If you are the mother of the bride or groom you will have to be impeccable, because a series of choices will depend on you, such as the possibility for the other guests to wear the hat (in this case it is the mother of the bride to determine it). Even if you are the sister of one of the spouses you should generally abide by the basic rules described above and agree with the spouses and the other women of the family a unique style. If you are a guest, inquire about the type of clothing of the ladies in the family and try to be sober. Always aim for something soft.
And the shoes to combine with a formal dress? Heel for weddings day and night, but not too high if you are not used to wearing it. Low sandal and ballerina perfect for evening weddings. Sneakers, unless the theme of the wedding requires it, better to leave them at home or in the car for any emergency changes.
THE COLORS OF CEREMONY DRESSES
Black can be worn for elegant and formal weddings in the evening, but not during the day. If you really can not give it up, combine a colorful accessory. White is preferable not to wear it because it is the bride's exclusive prerogative, however, it is allowed in its nuances, if combined with other colors or if the wedding dress code explicitly requires it. Pastel colors are particularly suitable for weddings that take place in spring and summer, preferably during the day. For evening ceremonies opt for slightly darker shades or for dresses with bright inserts and jewel applications in pastel tones. Until a few years ago, purple and red were to be avoided, in the first case if you were superstitious, in the second because it is a too bright tone that could divert attention from the bride. In recent years, however, these taboos have fallen and many stylists insert these beautiful colors in their proposals, so if you like, you can wear them. Fantasy: it depends. Surely floral patterns are fine, abstract and unstructured, certainly the animal prints, spotted, zebra, leopard and various excesses are to be avoided.
These are some of the rules to be able to choose among many formal dresses the perfect one for you, but to conclude two last tips:
- Avoid all excesses, in make-up, hairstyle, accessories, lengths and necklines and focus on sobriety and simplicity.
- Always respect the dress code required by the spouses.
- But more than anything else, before choosing the formal dresses you will wear, try to understand, perhaps with the help of professionals, how to enhance your strengths and hide what you don't like. Only in this way can you choose the right ceremony dress, the one that will make you feel comfortable and represent you in every facet, in a word the perfect ceremony dress for you!
