I am more than a little embarrassed that this is the first year Theia is being featured on Chic Vintage Brides, indeed I am hanging my head in shame as I write this post. For those of you who haven’t heard of Theia, it is the label of Irish Designer Don O’Neill, who trained at Christian…

The unveiling of  Jenny Packham collections are always special, the designer does deco like no other! She has a way of designing a dress that is unequivocally evocative of eras past and yet equally perfect for the modern bride. Each collection is met with eager anticipation – and speculation at which will be the next…

Whilst we can always rely on Vera Wang to push the bridal boundary in terms of colour, there is one designer who reigns supreme when it comes to evoking romance through exquisite embellishment; and that designer is of course Monique Lhuillier. Not one to shy away from colour herself, the designer’s Fall 2014 collection included shades…

Just when I thought Chic Vintage Brides birthday week couldn’t be topped, I start to see glimpses from New York Bridal Fashion Week and we are talking serious icing on the cake here ladies, prepare to be wowed (and to want every dress you are about to see) With Vera Wang you know to expect the unexpected…

I can’t quite believe it, I don’t know where the time has gone, but this week Chic Vintage Brides turns 2?! Truly it only seems like yesterday that I sat down to type my first post and I could never have imagined then where my little blog would be today….. Of course it is all thanks…

Hello everyone and welcome to another brand swanky new week! How was your weekend? Mine was spent with Mr E making our new house a home and glamming up the garden! There are already buds and blossom a blooming with Spring officially starting this weekend – and today’s post couldn’t be any more perfect for…

If you loved Collette Dinnigan‘s last bridal collection, the Princess Diaries (and I know you did), then just wait until you see her latest offering to soon-to-be-brides! (how lovely is that bow on the back??) It is easy to see why Collette Dinnigan’s designs have been worn by some of the world’s most elegant and…

Nobody does vintage inspired, ethereal and beautiful wedding dresses quite like designer Claire Pettibone (you can see some of her previous creations here on Chic Vintage Brides) I eagerly anticipate each and every one of her collections, and so couldn’t be more thrilled to be sharing her latest (and greatest?) offering for Spring 2014 ‘Decoupage’……..

No designer creates outfits for the modern-day goddess quite like Jenny Packham and her recently unveiled Spring 2014 Collection, inspired by the Belle Epoque, contained everything we have come to expect from this deco-divine designer – vintage-inspired dresses that simply ooze glamour and luxury, sleek sheaths and stunning gowns with plunging necklines, shimmering with embroidery and embellishments….. From the great lady…

Oooh it was going to be pretty tough to top yesterday’s post for gown gorgeousness – Karen Willis Holme’s 2013 Collection really is breathtaking….. but if any designer can be trusted to create a collection that exudes luxury and is packed full of wow, it is Monique Lhuillier! Monique’s innate sense of style and understanding of…

Vera Wang‘s latest collection is ever the much anticipated event. You can always trust VW to push the bridal boundaries, and to create a collection of bridal gowns to make you gasp (who could forget this time last year, her beautifully bold exploration of red!) And her 2014 Collection unveiled this week at NY Bridal Market is no exception………
