1. Prabal Gurung

For his Fall 2016 collection, Nepalese designer Prabal Gurung was inspired by Henri Rousseau's painting, Woman Walking in an Exotic Forest. As a result, these dresses flow freely in soft silhouettes, adorned with whimsical forest-inspired prints and textures. If you're planning a casual, bohemian, or rustic wedding, you can get plenty of ideas from this romantic collection.

2. Jenny Packham

A favorite of Hollywood stars and the Duchess of Cambridge, British designer Jenny Packham's collection features gorgeous, breezy, and timelessly feminine dresses. You'll find her collection in the Fall 2016 New York Fashion Week to be particularly irresistible for an alfresco summer wedding, that is, if you love the non-white wedding dress trend as much as we do.

Straight from London Fashion Week, the two-piece outfit on the left will make you look fashionable without needing any additional accessories, while the right one will look gorgeous for your beach wedding.

5. Marchesa

Nobody does feminine dresses like Marchesa, as you can witness from their stunning Fall 2016 collection inspired by John Singer Sargent's lush paintings from the 1890s. These particular dresses are perfect for a garden wedding, and you can opt for the dress on the right for a more dramatic look. For more inspiration, look no further than the dresses worn by Chrissy Teigen and Marchesa's own Georgina Chapman on the Oscars red carpet last month.

6. Michael Kors and Chanel

Say hello to short wedding dresses! Make the aisle your very own runway and pick one of these pieces. We couldn't decide which one we like the most, as these two fabulous dresses simply suit different personalities. For the cute and charming bride, Michael Kors will win your heart. But we'd also love to see the fashionista who can pull off Chanel's combination of cascading tulle ruffles and pearls.

7. Naeem Khan

Nobody can play with glitz and glamour better than Naeem Khan. If you're a confident bride with a bold personality, you should definitely consider his creations. Combining fall's metallic trend with a classic ball gown silhouette, and dominated with royal gold and black, these dresses will transform you into a queen on your wedding day.

8. Valentino

We bet you will be charmed by this collection made from the one and only Valentino. Bring out the Ballerina's lives into the designs, the poised and delicate image are depicted to the collection flawlessly. If you feel the ruffled tutu is not a great match for you then why not go for the other deep V neck cutting dress in nude hues. The dresses spoke frankly on how the modernity in subtle romance could show much of undeniable elegance.

9. Oscar de la Renta

We think Peter Copping did a great job in updating the legacy of this beloved fashion house to meet the modern demands of women's fashion today. For this collection, he juxtaposed high-tech, sportswear-inspired fabric with 18th-century fashion. Both made with damask silk jacquard, the dark patterned dress and the loosely ruffled fuchsia dress will reflect your lovely personality.

These two attention stealers are perfect for an intimate wedding celebration. Julien Macdonald presented an updated 1970s disco look, with glimmering fabric and a plunging neckline. If you'd like something less plain yet still modern, opt for this show-stopping broken-white gown by Rosie Assoulin, who just dressed the gorgeous Amal Clooney.

Velvet ruled the runways this season, and this legendary fashion house did not disappoint. During the Fall 2016 Milan Fashion Week, Giorgio Armani presented a series of evening dresses in rich and luxurious black velvet fabric. There are no rules stating that you can't wear black on your wedding day, and even if there were any, you could always break them!

Calling all modern brides! If the ultra-feminine and elaborate princess look is not what you're aiming for, the Fall 2016 collection from Lanvin and Louis Vuitton might be the ones for you. With their minimalist cutting and masculine details, these dresses will emphasize your strong and independent personality.

16. Christian Dior

At first, we weren't sure that this collection would be suitable as bridal inspiration. But wait, we remembered that some of you are considering an elopement and might want to wear something memorable yet not too hard to handle.
