We explore this texture-first, styling-led edit of modern bridal, which delivers sculptural silhouettes and buildable separates. This is a label that’s intentional, refined and one to watch









At its central London press preview, Unbridled Studio introduced Collection IV, a fashion-forward edit defined by sculptural silhouettes, rich texture and a strong sense of styling freedom. As predicted, the collection was full of stunning fabrics, fine and intentional silhouettes, and the buildable pieces the brand is quickly becoming known for.
“It’s been a bit of a crazy year, in a good way,” says designer and creative director Anna Vesty. “When you actually stop and look back, especially over the last six months, it’s like – wow! Things have really ramped up.”
Collection IV continues Unbridled’s distinctive approach to modern bridal; less about chasing trends, and more about refining a clear aesthetic rooted in contemporary ease and quiet confidence. “I personally try not to lean into trends if they don’t feel right for us,” Anna adds.
The latest edit is designed with versatility in mind. Rather than a single fixed look, the collection encourages brides to build their style through separates and layered elements that shift the mood and silhouette. “It is a dynamic experience,” says Anna. “It’s not just ‘here’s a dress’. It’s a process. We build the look together.”
At the heart of Collection IV is an elevated focus on fabrication. Nostalgic 3D textures and indulgent jacquards are brought into focus, contrasted with clean contemporary satins. “Fabric for me is the starting point of everything,” Anna says, explaining that many of the brand’s most tactile textiles are developed in collaboration with mills. “We design our jacquards from scratch – selecting yarns, adjusting scale, changing construction and weight until it’s exactly right. Everything we develop is exclusive to us.”
The result is a range where texture has become a design language, rather than decoration. Pieces feel confident; the fabric choice and proportion take the lead. The attention to cut remains central, too, with each style underpinned by careful construction. Anna’s approach is also grounded in real-world wearability. “I am quite commercially minded,” Anna says. “I design with body types in mind, not just silhouettes."
The press preview itself reflected the brand’s confident and cool philosophy. The space was elevated with subtle floral touches by artist Fiona Fleur, a refined nod to Unbridled’s previous creative collaborations. Also, a reminder of the studio’s fashion-minded approach to presenting bridal as a complete visual story.
Founded in 2023, Unbridled Studio is a female-founded label launched by Vesty, joined by fellow director Ruth Malton. Together, the duo bring fashion industry experience to a brand that continues to carve out a distinct identity in the modern market. The collection is available from the brand’s flagship studio in Liverpool, as well as select UK and international stockists.
