Wendy Makin Couture Collection 2016

Modern Wedding Posted: May 6, 2016

ARIETTA Back

Wendy Makin gowns lave long been loved by brides in Australia and around the world.  After more 30 years designing for brides, her gowns have become known for their quality of design, fit and manufacture and she is recognised as one of Australia’s best bridal wear designers.

Using only the best quality fabrics and laces from all over the world this multi award winning designer produces a unique collection of gowns for today’s bride.

Wendy’s newest collection is an eclectic mix of modern and classic designs. It incorporates unique fabrics and sexy silhouettes to create a sophisticated collection. Styles range from figure-hugging silhouettes to more classic ball-gown shapes, and even a 50s inspired swinger gown. The focus of this collection, like all of Wendy’s collections, was stunning gowns with a flawless fit.

The inspiration for the collection came from diversity. Wendy wanted to create a collection that incorporated styles that not only looked different, but would suit different body shapes. The gowns work together because of their simple lines, but their unique fabrics called for unique styling, which is why this collection is so captivating.
