THE NAMES YOU NEED TO KNOW

Many international brands are putting the finishing touches into the collections they will show at European Bridal Week, 1-3 April, where they are certain to make a big impression.

From Australia is a collection with an innate sense of style that marries the contemporary with the rediscovered classics. Madi Lane is the brand, and Elizabeth Young is the visionary behind it, making the absolute best of her knowledge, experience and skills gathered over 20+ years in designing, manufacturing and retailing. With her highly-talented team, Elizabeth creates a look that is very much her own – distinctive, different, delicious – that shows a true understanding of what today’s brides want.

In Essen you’ll discover the wonderful detail that makes Madi Lane stand out – the brands own interpretation of the newest necklines, be they deep Vs with illusion panels, or fashion’s favourite sharp-cut squares. Sequins partner with fabulous botanical laces, and detachables add a second – and often third – dimension, from long puff sleeves cuffed in lace or frill-edged, to full balloon sleeves and off-the-shoulder highlights. And echoing the same designer features are some of the very best cuts for brides with luscious curves.
 

For the not-so-grown up gorgeous young ladies, Germany’s Emmerling is a brand known and loved across the weddingwear community for its delightful flowergirl dresses and communion collection. 

Taking the prettiest features from their big sister’s favourite styles, this is a collection of sweetly shaped silhouettes and fabrics with all the girly finishing touches. The accessories story is just as exciting with scaled, down sparkles for those finishing touches.
