For future brides who have planned their weddings for the spring/summer, the deadline for purchasing their gowns is fast approaching. Many even say yes to the dress one year in advance, but there are also many undecided brides-to-be who have dithered or postponed until now.

But what is the ideal gown for a country wedding in the Val d’Orcia? There isn’t just one answer to that question, but certainly gowns with long trains or endless veils or rhinestones are a little out of place among the hills and olive groves. It would be best to opt for a romantic style, retro or boho chic.

One of the biggest trends for 2020 is lace. Chantilly, rebrodé, guipure, macramé: many precious variations on a great classic which has dominated the fashion shows, for a bride that is a little vintage, a little romantic and surely elegant. Perfect for a country wedding in Tuscany.

Here are some of our favourites.
