Trends & Inspiration behind the 2024 Bridal Shoe Collection

Here at The Perfect Bridal Company we keep a close eye on both bridal and shoe trends, so we can incorporate both into our unique collection of wedding and occasion shoes. Each year we aim to bring our customers something which is new and different, whilst also being beautifully on trend and wearable.

This year is no different and we were thrilled to launch the 2024 shoe collection at Bridal Week Harrogate, where we showcased all of the brand new wedding and occasion shoes and bags. It seems we weren’t the only ones, as the collection attracted huge levels of interest and excitement!

So what are the key themes of the new collection, and which are the styles you can expect to see walking down the aisle in 2024? Here we give you an exclusive insight into the inspiration behind the designs…

STATEMENT SEVENTIES

One trend which has dominated the catwalks in clothing, shoes and homeware is seventies chic- think bold prints, chunky silhouettes and a touch of disco glam! This is a look we can totally get on board with and you can find it in abundance with new styles, Birdie, Paloma and Camden.

With a statement platforms and chunky block heels, this impressive trio definitely stand out from the crowd and brings a fabulous excess of glamour to any occasion. Available in super soft silver or gold leather (Birdie), and classic ivory satin (Paloma/ Camden), these fabulous shoes are as comfortable as they are stylish, with the platform also giving extra height without compromising on practicality.

REFINED FLORALS

Ever popular in bridal design but with a new twist, florals are set to be even bigger for 2024. This year however it’s all about how those florals are presented, with sheer, ethereal materials popular as well as three dimensional petals and leaves.

Our beautiful new trio London, Milan and Peony bring this romantic trend to life beautifully. Crafted from beautiful floral lace overlaid onto delicate ivory mesh, the unlined fabrics give these styles a truly high end and luxurious feel. They also feel wonderfully lightweight on the foot, making them effortlessly cool to wear.. in both senses of the word!

ELEVATED SIMPLICITY

Sometimes less is more, especially when that less is beautifully elevated, with just the right amount of embellishment and carefully considered detailing. This trend keeps silhouettes understated and minimal, adding luxurious elements which elevate this simplicity and result in shoes which are the perfect balance of classic and perfectly on trend.

This elegant trend is demonstrated beautifully with styles Aimee, Chantel and Dolly. Using classic ivory satin, each style has it’s own unique embellishment of diamanté, pearls and delicate seed beads adding just the right amount of sparkle and sophistication.

SNEAKER CHIC

Comfort is no longer a dirty word, or something which has to be sacrificed in the name of fashion. Comfort is officially cool. This is where bridal trainers really come into their own. Having been around for a whilst now, these laid back yet uber cool trainers are no longer niche and have hit the mainstream with a bang!

We’ve introduced three new bridal trainers for 2024- meet Codie, Cameron and Ezra. All incorporating the latest bridal and footwear trends, all with maximum comfort and laid back style they’re set to be bestsellers for weddings and beyond!
