Q&A Fashion Local experts offer advice on how to look your big-day best BRIDAL BEAUTY Which bridal accessories will be popular in 2025? As an accessories designer, I follow the trends with a passion because my work serves to complement wedding gown styles. My predictions for 2025 are: Individuality and bespoke designs. Unique pieces that add a personal touch to a wedding and emphasise the bride’s individuality. Layered pearl necklaces that will work perfectly with the new corseted basque waist ballgown dresses that we’ve already seen on many runways. Oversized earrings are still en vogue and can make a statement on their own without the need for any other accessories. Pearls galore! They’re still everywhere, on veils, bags and shoes. Pearls of every size and description, from the larger baroque pearls to the traditional classic string of pearls, remain as the accessory must-have for brides-to-be. Jayne Nevins www.camille-accessories.com TREND SETTER What are the latest make-up looks for 2025 brides? Blusher was huge last year and we will see our 2025 brides also requesting a rosy glow. Cream blushers are great for achieving this look and are soft and natural on the skin. Glowing skin is here to stay for 2025. Champagne and goldentoned highlighters applied lightly above the apples of the cheeks and slightly above the cheekbones give that glowy look from every angle. We will be seeing more metallic, reflective and glossy eyeshadows throughout the year and berry-coloured lipsticks to mirror Old Hollywood glamour. Lashes in 2025 will be layered with several coats of mascara to build up a wet, spiky effect.
