23 Sexy Wedding Dresses for the Bold Bride

Sometimes simpler means sexier and Jenny by Jenny Yoo's Marnie gown proves just that. Throw on this V-neck satin for a look that's effortless and carefree.

Attention, boho brides! You can also channel sexy on your wedding day. Just look at this number from Jenny by Jenny Yoo. Figure-hugging and plunging—all with a little sparkle.

While this can work for a variety of bridal styles, we can't stop picturing this number at a beach wedding. Barefoot and carefree, that's another definition of sexy to us!

Practically made for a beach wedding or low-key garden ceremony, this Reformation dress personifies a more casual, carefree vibe. Form-fitting and with a low cut bust, its semi-sweetheart neckline is especially flirty.

To us, this Reem Acra look has everything a bride could ask for in a sexy wedding dress. Between the strapless neckline, corset bodice, figure-hugging silhouette, and all-over lace, it's both romantic and sultry and made for a flawless walk down the aisle.

This column gown takes cut-outs to a new level. Featuring an asymmetrical neckline, the left side of the dress not only sports a single long sleeve, but a series of bows that serve to affix the bodice of dress together—reveal plenty of skin before meeting a thigh-high slit.

Mira Zwillinger's "Molly" dress leaves little to the imagination. Yet, besides being quite revealing, the look also has an ethereal, mysterious quality thanks to the A-line skirt.

So sheer it’s barely there, this Galia Lahav gown still epitomizes class. This dress works for the romantic bride that’s also looking to serve sexiness in her wedding look. With tasteful appliqués and a full, billowing skirt it retains a certain sensual dreaminess.

This inviting Lillian West gown is built on illusion, especially with its sheer boat neck giving way to a more covered sweetheart neckline. Cut-out panels on both sides of the bodice emphasize both the shape and silhouette of the torso, plus a low cut back to show serious, actual skin.

While this Berta gown hugs your whole figure, it adds extra attention to your backside. With a low-cut back, mermaid skirt and sheer details, this dress dials up the sexiness in the most sophisticated way.

This Galia Lahav number is all about the silhouette. Sure it’s ballgown style, but its sheer fabric makes it appear as though it’s barely there and instead all about the silhouette of the legs that glide underneath.

Strapless neckline, slitted skirt, detachable train, this gown has it all. We do, however, love how the delicate lace off-the-shoulder straps give off a hint of romance—the perfect addition to an otherwise daring dress!

Both sultry and whimsical, the "Cecilia" dress by Liz Martines features billowing, off-the-shoulder bishop sleeves, and strategically placed floral appliqués. If you’re looking to create a barely-there fairytale effect, this sheer white gown sets the standard.

Designer Naeem Khan combined regal and daring with this "Melissani" wedding dress. The sexiness comes out in the deep V-neckline while the stitched A-line skirt add to the statement.

What is sexier than a mini? Here, a high hemline is paired with a plunging neckline and all-over illusion material. The perfect reception or after-party look!

This look by Pronovias is all about contrast. The mermaid silhouette hugs the body while its deep V-neckline drops low to show off maximum skin.

With a form-fitting bodice and a neckline that travels to just above the waist, this Isabelle Amstrong dress is ideal for a bride looking to play up their bust. But, it is not without gorgeous details like all-over embroidery.

This strapless gown from Reem Acra steps into its full sexiness when viewed from the side. It features sheer paneling from the neckline to the bottom hem of its floor-length skirt. Not only that, but the gauzy material giving to the illusion is also emblazoned with delicate, sparkling bejeweling that serves to draw the eye to that section even more.

This Galina Signature dress has many sexy features including a deep V-neck that plays up the bust which is an asset for the bride looking to play up that particular attribute. Its chapel train successfully frames the figure, drawing the eye inward to the gown’s sheer, hip-hugging skirt. This dress is not only flattering, but actively works to exhibit the body, working especially well on an hourglass figure.

Another simple option, Vivienne Westwood's draped satin mini dress works at a variety of venues—whether you're bringing the sexy to your at-home "I dos" or flaunting your legs on the reception dance floor. Either way, this is a gown to consider for the big day.

The crux of this design is its commandingly high slit that recalls Angelina Jolie’s iconic moment of when her leg stole the show on the red carpet. But that’s not the only sexy element. This gown’s off-the-shoulder, semi-sweetheart neckline compliments the risk below.

Tuxedo dresses are perfect for chic city ceremonies. The traditionally masculine tuxedo jacket takes on a playful, flirty vibe when worn as a dress by a bride and this slinky, ivory one is made for an elegant, modern wedding.

We love the notched lapels and double-breasted front and, with a plunge neckline and short length, it shows off a sexy amount of skin.

Mermaid gowns create that gorgeously flattering hourglass effect that draws all eyes to you. Covered in floral lace motifs over glitter tulle, it's a fun, feminine design that youthful brides will love (plus it'll subtly sparkle under the dance floor lights!).

The sweetheart neckline and illusion plunge are as beautiful as they are racy.
