Rustic style is now at the peak of its popularity, it manifests itself in design decisions, the interior and, of course, in clothes. Even wedding dresses were not left untouched by this style. Rustic-style wedding dresses are brimming with simplicity and naturalness.
Summer open-air weddings, charming autumn ceremonies with rich flowers and tender spring weddings - every season is suitable for a rustic style. And even for a winter wedding, you can find a worthy embodiment of a rustic.
Where did the rustic style come from?
Not so long ago, the "rustic" style was acceptable exclusively for design. He helped recreate in a confined space that cosiness that has long been able to give only a rustic style.
Residents of large cities have actively used it to decorate their homes, focusing on naturalness and environmental friendliness. For this, special building materials were selected: wood, stone, brick and others.
A little later, this style went into the design of wedding halls and found a lot of fans. This figuratively rustic style is called rustic, but in fact it is not quite like that. European wedding standards began to recede under the onslaught of the rustic style.
Style
If you decide to hold a wedding ceremony in a rustic style, then the dress should be appropriate - a simple and straight cut style with a simple silhouette that resembles a vintage.
Simplicity is the key to determining the relationship of a wedding to a rustic style. The image of the bride is completely devoid of pomposity, which carries a crinoline, ruffles and sparkling elements.
But a cocktail dress in the floor, made in pastel colors (white, milk or beige color), is the best option for a rustic style. Ornaments and decorative finishes have the right to exist even in such simplicity, but in moderation.
Lightness and airiness in a wedding dress is also allowed by the canons of a rustic image. Even a snow-white sundress can be beaten in such a way that no one doubts that we had before us a bride dressed in a rustic style.
Here, of course, one cannot do without accessories that will make the image truly rustic (beads, an interesting cape, an unusual handbag).
A dress in a rustic style does not have to be long and short models can be quite acceptable. The main thing here is simplicity - without fitted lines, fluffy skirts.
When adding jewelry and accessories to your image, remember that pretentiousness and gloss will not be appropriate. In rare cases, light puffiness in the dress may be present, as well as the original skirt with a slight inclusion of ruffle or flying fabric.
The presence of a sleeve in a Rustican style wedding dress is very welcome, as it creates harmony and a sense of completeness.
Long sleeves acquire relevance closer to the fall.
A good option would be sleeves made of transparent fabric, which taper in the wrist area. Even the sleeves in the form of flashlights will not spoil the overall impression of the dress.
Do not be afraid to bare your back - a bit of sexuality has not hurt anyone. And even the rustic style welcomes such elements. Quite often, wedding dresses in the Rustican style are created on an individual order, because this is the only way to take into account all the features of the figure and create the perfect style.
Material
If the bride gave preference to the rustic style, then you need to observe it in everything and to the end. For example, the choice of fabric for the dress is dominated by simple dullness, without a crazy scattering of rhinestones and a dazzling sparkle of sequins.
The choice of color is also somewhat limited - white, ivory, pood shade or, in extreme cases, pastel.
The main criterion by which the fabric is chosen for a rustic wedding dress is lightness. The leaders in this parameter are unchanged: chiffon, tulle and lace.
Lace is an eternal and unchanging companion of a rustic, as well as embroidery in a light, even weightless design. For a winter and autumn wedding, it is definitely worth choosing a long sleeve that can be fully or partially filled with lace.
And remember, a rustic is, first of all, simplicity, lightness and naturalness. When shaping their image, the bride actively uses the upper elements of clothing: stoles, boleros, capes and shawls. Not the warmest weather and an open ceremony only add to the image of zest.
Additional items
Accessories are very welcome in an image that is created according to all the rules and canons of a rustic.
The linen belt, which makes a significant emphasis on naturalness, looks very successful with a simple dress.
The choice of jewelry that will look harmonious in a rustic way is quite large - modest, without much emphasis or, on the contrary, massive. Everything that has a natural basis can serve as a material: wood, leather, natural stone. A strict taboo lies on any jewelry, pearls and other accessories that have a hint of classics.
Shoes, as well as the whole image, can only be simple and comfortable. About any hairpin and speech can not even be. But even simple shoes can be very tender and truly wedding: ballet flats, sandals, pumps with a very small heel, boots that are more welcome in the west, but for cool weather can be a great option.
Indeed, European brides often choose cowboy boots, and a short jeans or shirt with a large plaid print is put on top of the dress. But more modest and not so bold young ladies show interest in shoes without a heel, for example, ballet shoes.
The veil, as such, is practically not used in the formation of a rustic wedding image, giving way to wreaths of live flower arrangements, rims and tiaras. Although some brides manage to harmoniously enter a short veil in the original performance.
It is better to leave the hair loose with light curls, to collect in a braid or bun, while leaving the effect of light disheveled.
