There is so much to love about Ines Di Santo, not least how she meticulously creates gowns that strike the balance of timeless charm with fresh, modern detailing. Her latest line is aptly named "Modern Perspective," and she draws upon her love of architecture and the beauty of the built environment to breathe structure and new life into the styles. The designer wanted the collection to represent and embody strong femininity, shown through the artistry of her styles that celebrate the female form. There is an interplay of transparent layers over frameworks of corsetry, and this magical touch has created new voluminous shapes and silhouettes. There is no shying away from detail here, as the gowns are adorned with translucent beaded accents and embellishments that offer a whole new dimension and plenty of movement and texture.

Nardos Imam is the renowned designer behind this bridal line, and she has a strong reputation for creating the most elegant garments. The new collection, "Embracing Timeless Beauty," is exactly as it sounds. Plenty of romance and beautifully finished dresses that offer a unique take on classic wedding-day fashion. For the line, the designer drew inspiration from the texture and the blossoming essence of a bride's journey down the aisle. The styles are all about texture and detail, with the beauty given in effortless layers and unique structural elements. Think hand embroidery, sequined tulle, beautiful organza mixed with exquisite Italian lace, and pleated silks with 3D florals. There is real impact in the elegance and drama of this line.

It’s easy to spot a Reem Acra dress – look for the mixture of luxury fabrics with handmade detailing. The designer knows exactly how to combine traditional techniques with on-trend aesthetics. The latest collection has been crafted as a tribute to regal femininity and old-world elegance, blending couture styling with intricate yet unassuming designs. There is real variety in the silhouettes, with the long A-line dresses and ball gowns making a real statement, while short dresses and the use of accessories – trains, jackets, and belts – adding layers of definition to the styles. We love the elegance of the fishtail styles, which feel contemporary and alluring, as well as the bold necklines that feel almost architectural.

This is modern love. There is nothing traditional about this designer’s latest line. Styles are fresh and unique, daring but effortless, all with a relaxed femininity that feels perfectly of the moment. The 2024 collection is entitled ‘Astral’, for which she drew inspiration from stars, the mysteries of the universe, and the spiritual realms beyond our sight. This collection was all about pushing the envelope of traditional wedding dresses, showing off an edgy vibe with more than just a hint of rock ’n’ roll. Fluid, free-flowing dresses, two pieces, high hemlines, and some magical necklines. This is the perfect match for modern brides wanting a wedding weekender. This is thoroughly wearable attire for cool-chic brides who still want styles packed with layers of interest.
