Just before the spring blooms burst into the air in sweet floral perfume the world of bridal fashion with all its lace, pearls, and flights of fantasy, enters the scene and is the perfect prelude to the wedding season to come. This year is no exception and blushing brides to-be can lose themselves in clouds of taffeta dreams. The bride’s gown is a reflection of her love story, each curve, pleat and bow reading like the words of an intimate love letter.
Here is our editor’s choice from the top designer’s this year.
MIRA ZWILLINGER
Mira Zwillinger’s brides are literally dripping in blossoms. Delicate fabrics and three-dimensional flowers create an ethereal and gauzy dream.
“Our S/S 2025 haute couture “Reflections” collection was created with a strong will to
remind ourselves and others that beauty and tenderness exist all around us, we have
designed rich and flowy gowns with elements that echo from the gowns themselves,
and change their shape in every movement, just like reality can change in an instant.
It is up to us to be focused, present and open to see and connect to the magic
surrounding us in life.”
-Mira Zwillinger
KIM KASSAS
Turn up the drama and lean into all your dynastic fantasies, Kim Kassas has created an ode to powerful, sensual women inspired by world renown favorite Game of Thrones series, in her Dracarys Collection.
The collection is bodice focused where she generously elaborates with large jewels, boning, sequins, embroidery and even doves.
It is clear to us that Kassas firmly believes that your wedding photos should look like the cover of your very own romance novel, and we agree.
IDAN
Romantic and glamourous, Idan Cohen, created a modern Hollywood love story. Femininity rules as seduction flirts with fashion.
Chic and exciting, each gown has a core personality that frames brides in-the-know beautifully. Idan took inspiration from his world travels and the floral landscapes he found there creating cinematic worthy pieces.
Flattering silhouettes, loads of lace, ostrich feather accents, and not shy-to-be-shear, Malibu brides and Beverly Hills Barbies will feel the chemistry in IDAN.
DANA HAREL
Art, art and more art. Dana Harel’s collection feels like the fabric has been a canvas skillfully crafted into a masterpiece for the bride. Finely sculpted lines, movement at just the right moment, and ELEGANCE (all caps) culminate into something breathtaking and timeless, where the bride doesn’t create a moment, she is the moment.
In this collection christened “Gaia”, the Greek personification of Mother Earth, each piece drew inspiration from the minimalism found in ancient Greek and Roman art.
Rooted in a deep connection to raw materials, GAIA reflects the organic journey of each dress’s creation. Like a sculptor molding clay or a potter shaping pottery, every pattern, fabric, and silhouette tells a story of transformation and evolution.

INES DI SANTO
Ines Di Santo is no stranger to the runway, color or leading fashion technology. This year she expertly combined this expertise into her magnum opus. Bold silhouettes and the colors of the rainbow featured during her fashion show where she combined cutting edge technology with hand painted and beaded expressions, but we’ll let her tell you the story of “Romanticism Unveiled”.
“In this digital age of algorithms, AI, and an abundance of screens, I wanted to explore the expression of my imagination and the very essential human aspect of creativity amplified by modern technology, blending the two worlds as seamlessly as possible. It was our goal to use technology as a tool to enhance the viewers’ experience, so we designed an immersive environment utilizing projection mapping to showcase our collection of gowns that celebrate heritage craft and construction.“
“Our fabric developments this season led us to adapt and push the limits of modern embroidery and laser cutting machines to create new layered fabrications, pairing them with both hand painted and hand beaded details, a level of craft and artisanship that can never be fully substituted by machines.“
“Showing this collection in an immersive space really allows the audience to feel my intention of emotion on a grander scale and exhibits my vision for how the future of fashion can marry the art of hand craft, storytelling, and technology.”
