Pearls are nothing new to the bridal fashion realm, but lately, we've been seeing them in a whole new light. The pearl wedding dress trend is in full swing, with bridal designers using pearls in totally different and unexpected ways that go beyond the everyday beading and jewelry. We're talking pearl sleeves, pearl fringe, and even pearl denim, if that's your kind of thing. Gone are the days when pearls were only for the most traditional of brides, and we couldn't be more excited! 

Check out all the different ways to wear the pearl wedding dress trend with these designer looks.
