One of Hollywood’s biggest nights of the year turned into a love letter to bridal fashion on the red carpet at the 97th Academy Awards, with A-listers trading classic award show glam for aisle-worthy elegance. This year’s bridal fashion trends for 2025 took center stage, with ethereal white gowns, delicate lace and pearl-studded masterpieces making the Oscars feel like a bridal fashion show in disguise. Let’s break down the swoon-worthy styles and how you can bring fashion-forward looks to the aisle with True Society’s red-carpet wedding dress inspiration.
Pearl-Embellished Wedding Dress Inspired by Lupita Nyong’o
Lupita Nyong’o dazzled in a custom Chanel gown dripping with over 22,000 pearls – yes, twenty-two thousand. With a structured bustier, crystal bugle bead accents and pearl-embellished straps, the look exuded goddess-level opulence. Styled by Michaela Erlanger, Lupita completed her ensemble with Chanel’s “Signature de Perles” earrings and a pearl-accented updo.
Brides craving that same luminous pearl wedding dress detail can turn to Essense of Australia Style D4084, a timeless A-line dress featuring pearl spaghetti straps and a draped sweetheart neckline. Looking for even more pearl drama? Martina Liana Style 1741 brings Gatsby-esque glamour with its strappy pearl-embellished open back – perfect for a Hollywood-inspired bridal style.
Wedding Dress Inspired by Cythia Erivo’s Botanical Beauty
Taking center stage in a dramatic white ballgown during her Oscars performance, Cynthia Erivo wowed in a floral-detailed masterpiece. A blend of grandeur and modernity, this gown was a fairytale moment come to life.
Brides looking to bloom in bridal beauty can try a colorful wedding dress like Essense of Australia Style D4217. This strapless ballgown features exquisite floral lace in soft pastel hues, flowing tendrils and a subtle sparkle that catches the light with every step.
Elle Fanning’s Vintage Romance with a Bow
Elle Fanning embraced timeless sophistication in a custom Givenchy creation designed by Sarah Burton. Intricate lace and vintage-inspired silhouette made this gown a dream, but it was the dramatic black bow cinching her waist that truly stole the show.
For brides drawn to statement bow wedding gowns, Stella York Style 8031 delivers. Its oversized detachable Mikado bow is a striking contrast against the sleek A-line silhouette, offering a balance of classic and contemporary.
Lindsay Lohan-Inspired Simple and Sleek Wedding Dresses
Making her return to the Hollywood spotlight, Lindsay Lohan stunned in a sleek white gown at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

Her look embodies the minimalist wedding dress trend that continues to captivate modern brides.
For a take on Lohan’s look, Essense of Australia Style D3901 is the answer. The high boatneck neckline and chic column silhouette deliver timeless sophistication, while a low back accented with three elegant bows adds just the right amount of drama.
Kim Kardashian: The Grand Entrance
Kim Kardashian knows how to make an entrance, and her custom white Balenciaga ballgown at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party was no exception. With a fitted bodice, voluminous skirt and classic bridal elements, she gave us all a lesson in modern-meets-regal fashion.
For a showstopping bridal look inspired by Kardashian, Martina Liana Style 1595 delivers high fashion drama with its silk fit-and-flare silhouette and detachable overskirt. Brides who love that rich jacquard fabric, sultry scoop neckline and bridal ballgown trend can look to Martina Liana Style 1823 for structured elegance and runway-worthy volume.
