Bridal Buyer’s Hot Pick:

Oversized Bow Wrap

Ellis is known for their clean, elegant, and understated designs. This season on the runway, they incorporated statement accessories into their dress range that infused the collection with more trend-focused elements. Their floral wraps and small back bows made a big statement on the runway, but it was their oversized bow wrap that we loved most, and it's clear why—slipping over the arms and draping across the back, its exaggerated proportions add a playful yet chic element to their modern bridal looks.

Sherbon

Andreaa from Sherbon added, "seeing my designs come to life on the catwalk was truly a spectacular and emotional experience. I draw inspiration from the fabrics, laces, and textures, letting them speak for themselves in the collection. It's an overwhelming feeling of pride to watch these carefully selected materials transform into something vibrant and alive on the runway. The beauty of the black fabrics I’ve worked with is particularly stunning—they offer a sense of elegance and mystery, which was a breath of fresh air when they sparkled and moved on the catwalk. It’s like seeing a vision fully realized, and the emotional impact is powerful."

Bridal Buyer’s Hot Pick:

Kristala

Introducing a new Gothic era for bridal couture: Sherbon. The brand showcased a plethora of black bridal gowns, but one caught our eye in particular: Kristala. This dress feels like pure magic – a striking mermaid gown that feels like a fairytale. The entire gown is dripping in intricate crystal beaded applique, which catches the light beautifully giving an almost otherworldly glow. What we love most is the detachable statement shoulder pads, which come adorned with draping black beads and transform the look into something both fierce and regal.

Bridal Buyer's Hot Pick:

Melinda

We’re captivated by this stunning off-the-shoulder black gown, Melinda, by Lia Bella. Its intricate lace detailing contrasts beautifully with the sheer sleeves, giving the dress an elegant yet dramatic. We love how the intricate bodice flows into a voluminous tulle skirt - it's the perfect reimagining of a fairytale ballgown.
