Fashion experts say that clothing trends run in cycles – sooner or later, everything comes back into style. For brides, the cutting-edge look is retro: bridal shops are noticing that many of today’s brides are selecting looks that have roots in the 1920s. Even hat veils and short veils are enjoying a new found popularity. With this news, we’d like to share some of the retro styles that have inspired us.

There are a few sites out there offering a range of divinely retro headpieces. We just love this retro birdcage hat from Batcakes Couture. All of their pieces are hand crafted and made to order, so you can be sure to get exactly what you’re looking for.
When it comes to cakes, your imagination may very well be your only limit. But if you’re looking for some inspiration, check out this fabulously retro cake from the experts at I Dream of Cake.
Of course it wouldn’t be a retro themed wedding without a vintage or retro inspired wedding dress. And it just doesn’t get much more retro than this classic 50′s sheath dress from Whirling Turban.
To complete the retro theme, wouldn’t it be great to send your guests home with these charming martini salt & pepper shaker wedding favors?
Hope you’ve enjoyed our retro inspirations, now let us know what inspires you!
