Love At First Sight – We Are Swooning Over These Stunning New Dress Collections

Modern Wedding Posted: January 16, 2019

1. Stella York Style 6716 2. Essense of Australia Style D2603 3. Martina Liana Style 1004

Florals, royals and shimmer … oh, my! The newest collections from award-winning wedding dress designers Essense of Australia, Stella York and Martina Liana bring us a multitude of new gowns to dream about—with vibrant, organic-inspired stylings and on-trend details so full of life, it will be love at first sight when you see what this season has in store. 

Essense of Australia: Wildflower Inspiration

This season is inspired by the carefree romance of wild, abundant botanicals! The beauty of nature is perfectly captured by Essense of Australia in this collection, especially with styles like D2642. Organic-inspired laces create natural harmony with 3D florals throughout this fit-and-flare gown, gracing the delicate bodice and drapey, off-shoulder straps with sheer romance.

Essense of Australia: Gossamer Details

Speaking of sheer … let’s talk about Styles D2760 and D2597! Sheerness continues to trend in bridal, but Essense of Australia finds the most innovative ways to incorporate such detail throughout intricate patterns and classic detailing—for a dreamy, gossamer-like effect that boasts an elegant touch of sexiness. But that’s not all … sheer effects are also intermingling with floral laces to play up exquisite train details for a dramatic finish.

Stella York: Royally Chic

If you haven’t heard, the Royal Wedding still has brides everywhere talking … and Stella York has taken note! Meghan Meghan’s timeless gown inspired many of her styles this season—with classic silhouettes and clean fabrics, these styles will evoke the regal spirit from every bride. Of course, including some modern touches like square open backs, deep V-necklines and pockets … what’s not to love about these modern dreams come true?

Martina Liana: Luminous Details

Martina Liana Style 1082

No one elevates a trend quite like Martina Liana—and this season, shimmer is taken to a whole new level. Inspired by the eye-catching brilliance of sunlight flashing over ocean water, this latest collection captures these breathtaking moments in the form of extraordinary beaded details—featuring bugle beads, water pearls and Diamante beading. This beadwork in Style 1082 elegantly complements the matte laces throughout the bodice, for an incredible radiance that will have the bride glowing at every angle—especially when she catches your eye at just the right moment.
