Sleeved Dresses for the Reserved Ladies
Not one to shout, you’re quietly confident and see yourself as more of an introvert. You lean towards demure simplicity though lace sleeves, modest necklines, and classic silhouettes. You have that less is more approach and crave simplistic, feminine designs with a timeless feel, that allow you to shine as a bride without having to show too much skin.

Dramatic Dresses for the Divas
If you view yourself as more of an extrovert, live life to the full, or thrive off being the centre of attention, this is your moment to go all out and choose a dramatic dress that really turns heads. If there’s ever a moment to channel your inner Disney princess the time is now, think grand ball gown silhouettes - the bigger the better - with a statement train, extravagant veil, or why not a crown. It’s time to unleash the inner diva.

Bohemian Dresses for the Free Spirited
For the bride that’s more relaxed, is happy to go with the flow, or in touch with her inner zen, why not opt for something more simple and relaxed? If you’re one to go against society's expectations, why should your wedding day be any different. Think off white, relaxed silhouettes, vintage embroidery and whimsical touches. Your dress should be effortless in design but with an artistic flair that will bring out your free-spirited side

Qipaos for the Traditionals
For the traditional bride, wearing a Qipao is an elegant way to pay homage to your culture. Though they’re typically seen in red, to symbolise happiness and good luck, modern brides have been tailor making theirs with a twist, choosing alternative colours and mixing up the silhouette to reflect their personality. The Qipao is for the bride that values their heritage but doesn’t want to skimp on being chic.
