Emilia Wickstead Unveils Collection 04
Today marks the release of Emilia Wickstead’s 04 bridal collection, and in anticipation of our exclusive interview with Emilia in print in Together Journal Issue 43, we are delighted to share a first look at the latest collection online.
Few designers have shaped modern bridal fashion quite like Emilia Wickstead. The New Zealand-born, London-based designer has unveiled her latest bridal collection, a refined and romantic offering that further cements her position as one of the industry’s most influential voices in contemporary occasion dressing.
Exclusively housed within the brand’s Sloane Street boutique, Emilia Wickstead Bridal has become synonymous with timeless elegance, exceptional craftsmanship and a quietly confident approach to dressing modern brides. This latest collection continues that legacy, introducing new silhouettes while remaining grounded in the architectural precision, femininity and enduring sophistication for which the house is known.
Drawing inspiration from cinema and architecture, the collection explores the interplay between structure and softness, romance and restraint. Signature fabrics including duchesse satin, silk Mikado and crepe sit alongside a more prominent use of lace, adding a fresh layer of delicacy and texture to the season’s designs. Throughout the collection, meticulous construction remains central, with each gown designed to offer both beauty and ease of wear.
Among the standout pieces is the Kaida gown, a striking new silhouette for the house. Reimagined for the bridal collection following the success of a similar ready-to-wear design, the gown features an ivory jacquard corseted bodice, pleated ball skirt and dramatic tie-back train, embodying the modern grandeur that has become a hallmark of Emilia Wickstead Bridal.
Renowned for her refined aesthetic, impeccable craftsmanship and distinctly modern approach to femininity, Emilia Wickstead Bridal has become a destination for brides seeking elegance, confidence and timeless design. This latest collection continues that legacy, introducing new silhouettes, intricate detailing and a fresh perspective on contemporary bridal dressing.
In our forthcoming print interview, Emilia reflects on the inspiration behind the collection, the evolution of her bridal offering and the changing way brides are approaching wedding-day style.
When discussing the collection’s creative foundations, Emilia tells us:
“The central inspiration behind this bridal collection comes from my love of cinema and architecture. Across all my collections, I draw inspiration from both these references.”
She also shares an insight into one of the most notable shifts she is seeing among today’s brides:
“We have noticed a shift towards brides wanting to wear a single look throughout the day.”
