12 High Street Wedding Dress Alternatives That Would Give Designer Gowns A Run For Their Money
Who said you have to spend thousands on a white dress?
Earlier this week Emily Ratajkowski shared pictures on social media from her off-the-cuff wedding day, and while the pictures are insanely romantic – there is one thing in particular which caught our eye.
Emily’s unusual choice of dress for the occasion sparked alternative bridal talk all around the globe.

Swapping the usual white lace gown for a mustard-yellow power suit, Emily gave us all the modern Bianca Jagger vibes, and we’ve decided to delve deeper.
Alongside Emily, past brides such as Solange Knowles and Keira Knightley showed that a white fluffy gown isn’t the only option for brides, and luckily for us, high street brands now provide these alternative options in plentiful.
Emily’s now-famous two-piece suit is in fact from high-street brand Zara, costing well under €200.
So, with that in mind, we have scoured the high street far and wide to find the best wedding dress alternatives. Whether you’re after something a little boho, something more tailored or just hoping to spend as little as possible – there’s a style for you.
