What's Trending in 2019*
At marry, there is a list page titled "2019 Trends" that summarizes the items and things that are trending this year*
There are several items trending this year, such as jute bags and ring plates, but one of the popular items among brides-to-be is the "American Flower Headpiece"♩
Let's introduce what designs are trending and what types are available♡
What is American Flower?
American Flowers are flowers made from resin. A frame is created with wire and dipped into a liquid resin called "dip liquid", which forms a resin film on the wire, shaping it into petals and leaves to create flowers.
Also known as "Dip Art", it was originally created in America, hence the name American Flower, but it is currently more popular in Japan than in America*
With a glass-like or candy-like appearance, the handmade nature allows for versatile shapes and colors, making it popular♡
As wedding accessories, they are sturdier than fresh flowers, eliminating the worry of wilting, while offering a more elegant impression than artificial or dried flowers.
They capture a retro vibe while also providing a modern, airy feel that is very appealing♡
