One of the quintessential elements of elegant bridal style is a train. If you’re not familiar with what a train is, allow us to give you a lesson in luxe!
A train is the extra fabric that extends from the back of a wedding gown. It is meant to trail behind a bride as they walk down the aisle and can be a part of their skirt. It can also be a detachable piece, and some trains can even attach to the shoulders of the wedding dress like a cape. Trains come in a variety of styles and lengths. Some of the most common dress trains are cathedral trains, chapel trains, sweep trains and shaped trains.
The shaped train is a modern, elevated update to the traditional circular shaped train. Our Martina Liana collection offers a sophisticated selection of fashion-forward bridal styles with shaped trains. Here are a few high-fashion silhouettes for brides who want to turn heads in a wedding dress with a shaped train.
Nothing makes us swoon more than an all-over lace bridal look, especially when it has a shaped train! Style 1171 is a gorgeous mermaid wedding dress with a long train. The glamorous French-inspired graphic lace detailing and beautiful beaded spaghetti straps highlight the feminine and ultra-flattering column silhouette.

There’s so much to adore about Style 1305, from the sexy plunging V-neckline to figure-flattering fit-and-flare silhouette.
