At By Watters, we live for the bride who does things a little differently. You know the one—bold, effortless, stylish, without trying too hard. So naturally, we’re tuned into the fashion moments that are moving the needle this wedding season. From sculptural shapes to color-soaked gowns and accessories with attitude, Summer 2025 is giving brides full permission to ditch tradition and make their own rules. And we’re right there with you—designing dresses that fit the mood and the moment. Here are the trends we’re loving (and designing for) right now: The Two-in-One Moment Convertible Gowns & Second Looks, The By Watters Way Why settle for just one vibe? Our latest collection leans into mix-and-match bridal moments—like detachable skirts, removable sleeves, and short-meets-long silhouettes you can twist to match your energy. Ceremony drama, meet dance floor freedom. Try it: Think satin minis paired with sheer tulle overskirts. One dress, multiple slays. Wedding White, Reimagined Pastels, Hints of Blush, and Something Blue At By Watters, we’ve always believed in coloring outside the lines. Our Summer 2025 palette brings in hints of blush, ice blue, soft lavender, and moody midnight tones—woven into our signature clean lines and playful proportions. It’s giving editorial bride, but make it wearable. Sleeves With a Point of View Soft Volume Meets Sharp Design Oversized sleeves? Always a yes. From floaty bishop sleeves to structured shoulder puffs, we’re dialing up the drama in all the right ways. These sleeves frame your silhouette beautifully and add just the right amount of whimsy. Design crush: Gowns that pair a strapless neckline with sheer sleeves that can be removed post-ceremony? Chef’s kiss. All About That Texture Sculptural Shapes, Pleats, and Playful Details We’re experimenting with structure and movement in a big way—think modern pleats, sheer layering, and tactile contrasts. The goal? Dresses that look stunning in person and on film (because, let’s be real, your wedding content deserves a main character moment). The Power of a Good Accessory Statement Jewelry That Brings the Look Together From veils that feel like vintage editorial finds to modern satin gloves and even bandana-inspired headpieces, we’re encouraging brides to have a little fun with it. Your dress is the canvas. Now layer on some personality. Chunky gold earrings to custom chains and pearls, this season is all about bold finishing touches that say something about you.
TLDR? Summer 2025 is about the bride who chooses her own narrative. By Watters is all about designing for the bride—color, texture, silhouettes that shift with your mood, and details made for the spotlight. So go ahead—ditch the rules, wear the gloves, and choose the dress that feels like you.
And don’t worry—we’ve got just the one.
