What is a keyhole back?
A keyhole back features a delicate oval or round cut out at the back bodice of the wedding dress. These cutouts can range in size but all deliver a surprise detail that deliver a pop of whimsy and allure.
Who should wear a keyhole back wedding dress?
Keyhole backs are perfect for brides who want to show some skin, but not go completely backless. An open back can look amazing on all brides, no matter your body type or personal style. They are available with long sleeves, short sleeves, no sleeves and with loads of different surrounding details such as lace, illusion fabric and beading.
Remember, the back of your wedding dress is just as important as the front, especially during the aisle walk and ceremony. Below are some of our favorite keyhole backs available here at VOWS!
