Choosing the Perfect High Neck Wedding Gown
While varying materials and levels of embellishment or transparency will influence the appearance of any high-neck wedding dress, the style is especially suitable for those tying the knot in the winter months or brides seeking a more modest look. For brides who love the elegance of a high neckline but desire more exposure for visual or physical reasons, sheer illusion fabrics are ideal. We suggest consulting with your personal bridal stylist to discover the high-neck wedding dress that best aligns with your unique vision.
Advantages of High-Neck Wedding Dresses
Utterly chic and sophisticated, a high-neck wedding dress is ideal for brides seeking an elegant and high-fashion bridal ensemble. The drama of the neckline also exudes a stunningly regal aesthetic making it perfect for a black-tie affair. Equally important, the high neckline offers physical security, comfort, and coverage from the moment you walk down the aisle to the very last song on the dance floor.
Popular Designers and Brands
Pnina Tornai, Sareh Nouri, Rivini, and Martina Liana are just a few of our world renowned designers who offer an exquisite collection of high-neck wedding gowns.
Fabric Choices
Wedding gowns featuring a high neckline require fabrics that offer a bit more stretch or mobility in comparison to other necklines. From sheer illusion and delicate laces to more opaque fabrics, such as stretch mikado and crepe, there is still a wide assortment to choose from. While transparent materials offer a more romantic and delicate appearance, opaque fabrics exude a modest, regal, and more formal aesthetic.
