Nature, art, architecture – Ines Di Santo finds inspiration in some of the most dynamic spaces. And the styles, both complex and fluid, in her new collection celebrates the unification of art and life – a philosophy that resonates deeply with Ines’ vision for modern brides.

Iconic & Impactful 

For over two decades, Ines Di Santo has been a leading name in luxury bridal, known for her signature blend of romantic drama, couture-level craftsmanship and visionary design. Based in Toronto and beloved worldwide, she has dressed generations of brides with gowns that balance structural precision with ethereal femininity. 

Ines has always had a huge passion for designing for real women, and this has always shone through her styles. Her pieces are considered, well planned, unique and full of movement. Brides and retailers love the level of exquisite detailing, the sculptural silhouettes and how they make every bride feel like the centre of a cinematic moment. This collection has been created as a garden full of floral impact, not shrinking violets.

Le Nouveau Jardin by Ines Di Santo

Le Nouveau Jardin is the Spring 2026 collection; it has been crafted to reflect the balance of life and art in unity, and as a shared inspiration. Through the mix of fabrics, colours, details and bold shapes, the styles elevate the conversation around what modern bridalwear can be.

Presented during New York Bridal Fashion Week, the collection – reflecting the sinuous beauty of the Art Nouveau movement – is filled with organic lines, nature’s rhythm, and the unification of art and life. There are so many bold options, and even the sleek looks have been packed with texture and layers of detail. 

“To embrace nature is to embrace oneself,” says Ines. “To connect with the world around us – its beauty, its flow, its imperfection – is to find harmony within.”

That sentiment is visible in every stitch. This season’s gowns are adorned with textural beadwork that catches the light like morning dew, and three-dimensional botanical motifs that appear to bloom across bodices and trains. Silhouettes are elongated and fluid, echoing the graceful movement of vines or flowing water — structure softened by nature’s hand.

Designed for the unconventional, expressive bride, “Le Nouveau Jardin” leans into couture-level artistry without ever losing its soul. These are gowns that don’t just fit the body — they frame a feeling. There is so much use of colour, in the details and all over – something Ines Di Santo is known and loved for. She once again shows that white is just one option for a wedding day, there’s a whole rainbow of possibilities.

Collection Highlights

Elisabeth Sonrel, a painter of the Art Nouveau era, once said, “Art is the bridge between the soul and nature.” Ines Di Santo’s Spring 2026 collection becomes that bridge — poetic, personal, and profoundly beautiful. Some of the collection highlights are:

• Billowing skirts and delicate layers that create natural movement
• Botanical embroidery and hand-appliquéd florals rendered in fine detail
• Transparent sheers and sculptural shapes for a multidimensional, cinematic effect
