The best of British bridal design talent are busy preparing for the sixth edition of White Gallery London.
The show, which will take place in Battersea from 17 to 19 May, will feature collections from internationally renowned designers including Ian Stuart, Alan Hannah and Naomi Neoh.
Multi-award winning bridal designer Ian Stuart will return to the exhibition with yet another show-stopping collection. For his latest collection Ian has revisited vintage sketches from his time at couture house Bellville Sassoon and has combined the essence of true couture with his innovative style.
One British label making its White Gallery debut is Louise Bentley. The gorgeous new line is the brainchild of Christine Wilke and Jane Hancock, the British designer duo behind Loulou. The dresses in this elegant new collection use pure silks and corded laces, which will be a must-see for visitors.
Meanwhile, from Lyn Ashworth by Sarah Barrett’s 2016 collection buyers can expect to see the signature shapes, style and quality that the designer is notorious for. Alan Hannah will also return to White Gallery with a selection of dresses that combine exquisite embellishment with delicate laces and organza skirts.
The English Roses collection from Eliza Jane Howell is bound to impress buyers come May. The collection takes inspiration from the backless trend with new styles including Tuscany, Chianti and Angelica. The range will also showcase even more complex beading techniques.
Inspired by the silk and beautiful English woodlands, Naomi Neoh’s 2016 collection comprises ethereal gowns in blush pinks and peachs plus a new oyster hue. Along with Noami’s signature soft, floating silk chiffon skirts there will also be the introduction of a guipure lace used for illusion necklines.
Ivory & Co will also return to the prestigious event with a collection of feminine dresses made with flowing silk fabrics. The gowns also incorporate stunning corsetry, with bodices embellished with sparkling Swarovskis and lace appliques.
Silken fluid bias cut gowns, daringly low backs and beautiful beading will all feature in Charlotte Balbier’s new collection. The range will too include Bohemian free-spirited designs with dream-like dresses in delicate fabrics.
Other British brands taking part in White Gallery include Stephanie Allin, Sassi Holford, Blue Bridalwear, Qiana, Zaeem Jamal, Katya Katya Shehurina, Mooshki, Emma Hunt, Terry Fox, Catherine Deane, Andrea Hawkes, Savin London and Sabina Motasem.
