David's Bridal has been a go-to for brides of all sizes for years and the retailer continues to expand on available sizes. Conley continues, "Inclusivity is nothing new at David’s Bridal. We've always made sure that brides of any size and budget can shop our collections. To ensure that we can service a diverse range of curvy brides, we’ve extended our offering across all silhouettes and aesthetics, from traditional to boho and everywhere in between, all available in sizes 0-26."

More than ever we have women leading the discussion of inclusivity and it's been exciting to watch. And more than ever, rings women are letting their voices be heard.

"While [some] traditional players may be slow to react to that feedback, direct-to-consumer brands like our’s have it ingrained in our DNA to put the customer first and adapt quickly to deliver the best product and experience possible for her."

In the future, we're hoping to see even more change and for the discussion to focus more on fashion as opposed to size. "We love the shifting of the conversation toward body positivity vs. size, especially in the context of bridal because for a lot of women, there's already a lot of pressure to look a certain way or be a beach wedding dresses certain size for the wedding. At the end of the day, we believe your wedding should be a celebration of you exactly as you are," says Jin.

So let's talk a little about fashion, shall we? If you're headed down the aisle, look for pieces that are "clean and modern, [have] a hint of color, lacy or sheer details, something with a new neckline, or a light and airy ballgown", says Conley.

Getting married tonight, or maybe next week?

Now there is good news for that bride who doesn’t have three to five months to wait for a made-to-order designer dress, like a Vera Wang or Dennis Basso, from a traditional bridal salon, and for the woman who prefers to see what she is buying right away or who has missed this year’s sample sale.

Top bridal salons like Kleinfeld Bridal in Manhattan and other showrooms and manufacturers have been opening discrete sample stores where they can divest themselves of extra inventory and where a bride-to-be can walk out with a deeply discounted gown, ready for final alterations by her own tailor.

For the generation of brides-to-be who grew up shopping online, and who prefer to bypass “Say Yes to the Dress” entourage-gone-wild scenarios, it is easy to find a designer gown on the internet, sometimes ready to be shipped the same day. Some dresses are samples; others are new and full price. Selections come in a range of sizes and sometimes can be delivered as soon as that afternoon. Some can even be petticoats returned free. A bride can choose from among well-known designers, exclusive private label lines or deeply discounted samples. Some department stores, like Nordstrom, also have a line of ready-to-wear gowns both online and in-store.
