Summer is known as wedding season for good reason. Unsurprisingly, the season’s bridal trends tend to reflect that mood, with delicate, understated and clean-lined designs typically favoured over heavy draping and embellishment. Below, we’ve compile our favourite, effortlessly elegant dresses from the recent collections, each of them a perfect match for any minimally-inclined summer bride.
