First and foremost, it doens't matter how trendy a wedding dress is if it doesn't fit correctly. Be sure your niece tries on many styles of dresses so that she'll know which one looks best for her. If she's one of the few select lucky people and anything looks good, the strapless wedding gowns are still a big trend. Poofy skirts are definitely out. Simplicity is ruling the day!
