One of my favorite new trends of the year features wedding dresses with pockets! Seems like this has been a bit of a controversial topic--brides either love it or hate it... but have no doubt, it is the new hot trend in bridal gowns. Pocket gowns have been featured quite a bit at Kleinfeld Bridal with brides specifically asking for that style!
Wedding dresses with pockets can be on just about any style gown, including short gowns and sheath. However, the ball gowns with pockets are just maginificent (see the video for my favorite from the Vineyard Collection at Priscilla of Boston). J. Crew also has a fabulous line showcased in the the slideshow below.
Why pockets on a wedding dress?
Pockets make the dress hip and chic. Different poses can be done for the wedding photos--a hand in one pocket, a bouquet in the other--how great? When the pockets are not being used, they are not visible, so no worries about taking any of the elegance away from the dress.
Pockets are also a great way to staff a tiny mirror for make-up checks, tissues for those tearful moments, or whatever tiny tidbit you feel is needed! No need for a bridal purse with these gowns!
