Weddings in 2026 will be all about layering stories and styles. Picture wild, untamed florals, vintage touches with accents of gold and accessories that feel like wearable art with each piece telling a story.
The bridal runways at Barcelona Fashion Week captured this perfectly with designers such as Cortana, Immaclé, Yolancris and Lorena Panea all opting for flowing silhouettes, sheer fabrics and intricate floral details. This new wave of boho is expressive and bold, with a gentle nod to fine art.
