The “Melt Into Your Skin” Illusion 

You know the phrase, “Made just for you?” That’s exactly what this hot wedding dress trend accomplishes! The “melt into your skin” illusion style gives you that ‘barely there’ coverage and is all the rage right now.  To get the look, you’ll have to find a nude mesh that blends effortlessly into your skin, allowing the dress to feel like it’s part of you. Just like foundation, getting a near-perfect match is pivotal to achieve this hot wedding trend. 

Here’s how our current nude mesh colors look on different skintones. Ask your store to see samples during your appointment to find the right color for you!

Martina Liana 1334

2021 brides are loving that ultra sexy ‘melt into your skin’ illusion trend. Martina Liana brings the heat with Style 1334. The illusion lace sleeves and neckline provide delicate coverage for that barely there look. The form-fitting silhouette and dramatic floral train give the entire gown a timeless finish. And we can’t get enough of that sexy keyhole back! The gown on the left features mocha tulle and mocha lining, while the gown on the right uses ivory tulle with a porcelain lining.

Ornate Bodice Details

Brides-to-be are loving elegant details this season, especially off-the-shoulder bodices. If you want all the stylistic elements of a low V neckline but none of the adjusting-all-night slips, a nude mesh neckline will help keep everything in place without covering up ANY of that sexy decolletage.
