Vivienne Westwood EU
The Vivienne Westwood 2023 made to order bridal collection presents twelve gowns, taking inspiration from the night sky – the shapes, colours and explosions of the cosmos. Sweeping necklines and distinct drapery define the collection – ethereal trains, capes and long line boleros orbit the silhouette, and textures of sequin, rich heavy satin and metallic embellishments give the collection an astral luminosity.
The colour palette – silvery whites, iridescent blush pinks and golds, inspired by the nebulas, are contrasted by rich reds, aquamarine and sapphire blue giving the made to order collection an enigmatic feel. Lower-impact fabric options include tulle, sequins, lace and taffeta certified as recycled and an FSC-certified viscose and acetate crepe satin, georgette and stretch satin. The collection is designed, sampled and hand-crafted locally in England. Select gowns, available in colour for 2023, give brides the option of a timeless dress for all occasions, prioritising longevity and wearability for future generations.

The Made-to-order collection presents a selection of gowns and separate styling pieces including veils, gloves, trains and boleros in ivory each season. Featuring key design notes of the house the collection uses traditional tailoring techniques, combined with historical and experimental pattern cutting. The collection features a selection of fabrics specifically chosen for their ability to consistently deliver reduced impact and increased benefits for the climate, nature, and people against the conventional industry equivalent. These include a delicate recycled nylon lace, as well as crepe satin, soft stretch satin and heavy stretch satin sourced through specific forestry standards and an organic double georgette silk. The collection is designed, sampled and hand-crafted locally in England.
