The New York-based designer made a splash by securing the second position in the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund 2019, making history as the sole wedding designer ever to participate. Now, she boasts a fan club comprising stars of contemporary style, from Zoë Kravitz and Alexandra Daddario to AnnaSophia Robb and Georgia Fowler.
WED
Amy Trinh and Evan Phillips, the duo behind the London-based brand of wedding dresses and ready-to-wear, Wed. You won't find a Grace Kelly gown here, but you will discover an abundance of sheer raspberry ensembles, ruffled skirts and trousers, as well as veils that cascade over the body like waterfalls of tulle.
JACQUEMUS
Each collection by Simon is infused with hedonism and a love for life — the perfect wedding designer, we say. His collections exude so much lightness, airiness, and audacity! The entire fashion industry discusses them, and brides walk down the aisle in creamy, beige, and white ensembles from the designer, falling in love with the distinctive sculptural forms imbued with a touch of French ease.
ACNE STUDIOS
Among the bold, asymmetrical, and distinctly Scandinavian designs presented by Jonny Johansson, there are models suitable for a wedding celebration. Take, for example, the Acne Studios SS 2023 presentation — a mood board for the kitschy bride: pink satin generously draped around the body, gathered lace adorned with pastel ribbons and rosettes.
CECILIE BAHNSEN
Babydoll dresses, ethereal skirts, and apron-style tops fastened with an elegant ladder of ribbons – it's no wonder that Cecilie Bahnsen has become a steadfast style favorite when it comes to wedding dresses. The Danish designer values not only the otherworldly but also the practical. Functionality is key to the allure of her clothing, allowing you to choose an outfit that can be worn even after the wedding.
SIMONE ROCHA
A wedding look in the spirit of the Brothers Grimm rather than the overly beloved Disney princesses. The designer offers bold models ranging from angelic to vampiric: white and pink dresses with voluminous sleeves, whimsical tulle skirts complemented by iridescent clutches, ultra-feminine headbands, and earrings. The ensemble is perfectly suited for both a registry office ceremony and a more luxurious celebration.
KHAITE
Luxurious, fresh, and minimalist, Khaite by Catherine Holstein is rightfully loved by New York's it girls. Her designs are simultaneously festive and understated. For example, a crepe dress in a creamy hue with open shoulders, flaring into an A-line skirt, or subtly elegant jumpsuits reminiscent of the 1920s.
MAISON MARGIELA
A beloved fashion brand by many, Maison Margiela is not one you would expect to showcase wedding dresses. Yet, there's plenty for the bride to explore here: from asymmetrical taffeta gowns to textured satin sheath dresses cut diagonally, hugging the legs. Enhance your look with any unconventional accessory, such as a pair of sheer gloves or a transparent black shawl.
VIVIENNE WESTWOOD
Modern classic of bridal fashion. Corset dresses with open shoulders and strapless designs have unquestionably become one of the most beloved wedding ensembles of this year, worn by brides such as Georgia Fowler, Rosie Boydell-Wykes, Kaia Gerber, and India Hartford-Davis.
THE ROW
Each piece from The Row carries the magic of simplicity. If you want to look stylish yet as if you didn't fuss too much about the wedding, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen surely know how to achieve that effect.
MAGDA BUTRYM
If you're a romantic bride with a sense of adventure, you'll love the brand Magda Butrym. The secret here lies in the details: the distinctive signature rose attached to the shoulder, 80s-style minis, and, of course, the rhomboid neckline.
