This year marked a major milestone for Bridal Collective; the global design house celebrated its 20th anniversary. Two decades of shaping modern bridal fashion with vision and unmistakable style, beloved by brides and retailers across the UK.

To honour the occasion, the company hosted a spectacular multi-day celebration in Amsterdam, welcoming retail partners from around the world for runway shows, exclusive previews of the 2026 collections, immersive training sessions and the chance to connect directly with the brand team. The event celebrated both the evolution of Bridal Collective and the people who have supported its journey from the beginning.

Each label within the group paid tribute through standout anniversary collections. Enzoani embraced bold, body-loving silhouettes; ÉLYSÉE leaned into its heritage of exquisite Chantilly lace; PEN·LIV championed versatility and detachable elements for transitional styling; and Portrait elevated modern minimalism through sculpted simplicity, particularly within its curve-inclusive offering.

As Bridal Collective reflects on two decades of innovation in an ever-evolving bridal landscape, it credits its longevity to strong retailer relationships, craftsmanship and a culture of collaboration. From a single line in 2005 to eight distinctive global brands today, the group continues to shape how modern brides express themselves.

To continue the celebrations, we spotlight some of the silhouettes and styles that defined Bridal Collective’s anniversary season.

Five Silhouettes In Focus 

Style Name: GENEVA
Silhouette: Ballgown
Line: Portrait
Bridal Collective on why brides love it: “This year has shown that minimal can still be major – Geneva embodies quiet luxury with structure that makes brides feel secure and special.”
Bridal Buyer’s Style Notes: This ballgown is all about minimalist grandeur. It is crafted in luminous satin, finished with subtle sequinned floral detailing that elevates the style. It features a flattering scoop neckline and a modern, sculpted back. While it has a simple, elegant look, it still managed to feel regal.

Style Name: VANESSA
Silhouette: A-line 
Line: Enzoani
Bridal Collective on why brides love it: “Brides love Vanessa for its ‘soft shine’ – sparkly enough to feel special, subtle enough to feel timeless.”
Style Notes: This dress is a romantic take on the classic A-line. It has just the right level of shimmer thanks to the sequinned botanical floral lace, which complements the glitter tulle that catch the light. The soft scoop neckline and optional detachable sleeves brides styling freedom, while the sweeping sculptural train brings gentle drama.

Style Name: GEM
Line: ÉLYSÉE
Silhouette: Mermaid
Bridal Collective on why brides love it: “For brides seeking bold beauty, Gem delivers beaded floral lace, baroque-inspired details and a silhouette that hugs and highlights every curve.”
Bridal Buyer’s Style Notes: Wow! A dramatic mermaid masterpiece! There is a lot to take in, from the baroque lace to the floral embroidery and layers of Chantilly lace, this is a dress designed for rich texture and dimension. The plunging V-neck frames the décolletage and the low back adds a striking touch; a sculpted train completes the look.

Style Name: TATUM
Line: Blue by Enzoani
Silhouette: Trumpet
Bridal Collective on why brides love it: “Clean, sculpted lines and beautifully draped off-the-shoulder straps create a look that feels effortlessly sophisticated and confident.”
Bridal Buyer’s Style Notes: This is a marriage of understated elegance and architectural precision. Available in Mikado or satin, the structured trumpet silhouette is elevated by a ruched scoop neckline and optional off-shoulder straps. The button-lined train gives the dress a refined finish with just the right amount of movement.

Style Name: DELANEY
Line: Pen·Liv
Silhouette: Shape Shifter! Sheath to Ballgown
Bridal Collective on why brides love it: “Brides adore Delaney for its versatility – a gown that evolves with the day and with her energy.”
Bridal Buyer’s Style Notes: A standout 2-in-1 design that shifts seamlessly from a soft, romantic ballgown to a sculpted fitted silhouette. Pearl-beaded floral lace and satin create texture and glow, while the asymmetric neckline brings an element of modern Hollywood glamour.
