Simple and minimalist wedding dresses

A simple wedding dress lets the cut and the fabric speak. Without much embellishment, it is the silhouette, the neckline and the drape of the fabric that give the dress its character. At Karim Design in Copenhagen, we design minimalist wedding dresses in satin, silk and crepe, and you will find them among all our wedding dresses in Copenhagen.

What defines a minimalist wedding dress?

A minimalist wedding dress has clean lines and few or no details such as lace, pearls and stones. Instead, it is the sheen and drape of the fabric, a clear neckline or an open back that create the look. The simple shape makes it easy to style the dress with a veil, hair accessories or a pair of statement earrings.

Imelda is a slim column dress in silk with a bateau neckline and a low, draped back. Leah in satin has spaghetti straps, a deep V-back and a train, and Anais in satin has a cowl neckline and a high slit. Elara in crepe has a V-neck and an open back, and Joceline is a strapless wedding dress in satin.

If you would like a little more character in the cut, take a look at Gemma, a satin column dress with a square neckline and a high slit, or Celine and Pia, which both have an off-the-shoulder neckline. Elva is a minimalist wedding dress with long sleeves and a high front slit.

For city hall, church or celebration

A simple wedding dress suits many kinds of weddings. At city hall it is easy to move in, and in church a train gives a calm finish as you walk down the aisle. Read more about the different silhouettes in our guide to wedding dress styles.

Costume Design or Couture Made

All our made-to-order dresses are made to your measurements. As Costume Design, the dress is made to your three measurements – bust, waist and hips – and production typically takes 3–4 months. As Couture Made, it is created entirely from scratch to your full measurements and typically takes 6–9 months. Wedding dresses from DKK 7,900 – Couture Made from DKK 25,000.
