Established in 1975, Suzanne Harward is a renowned bridal fashion house from Melbourne specialising in exquisite hand-made couture wedding dresses. The label comprises a couture collection, ready-to-wear range and a made-to-measure service. The collections have a major influence on the Australian bridal fashion industry because they are fashion-forward and unique, inspired by art, nature and the world itself.
Inspired by timeless femininity, the Victorian era and 1970’s fashion, Suzanne Harward’s new bridal Neo-Victorian collection offers a modern take on the vintage trend. She combined contrasting elements to create wedding gowns that are unmistakably romantic and unique. Styled with unexpected and quirky bridal accessories such as bunny ears, statement jewellery and black sunglasses.
The Neo-Victorian collection refers to different historical periods and different definitions of feminine beauty. From simple cotton dresses to elaborate laces, it is eclectic, versatile and offers a range of styles for the modern, fashion-savvy bride-to-be who wants something unusual and not the traditional ball gown. She wants to wear a wedding dress that truly reflects her fashion forward style.
One of the most striking pieces from the collection is a floor-sweeping, fit-and-flare lace gown with a long train and a high-neck collar. It is romantic and feminine but also has a vintage bohemian vibe to it. The perfect alternative for a bride-to-be who wants a glamorous, elaborate dress without the drama of a huge ball gown skirt, princess-style overlays and illusion detailing. Another one of our favourites is a simple backless column gown with a train and a single 3D bloom attached to the neckline.
Seventies-style streamlined flared gown with a deep V-neck and a detachable choker collar is another show stopper from the collection, and brides-to-be who prefer a more relaxed, shorter style for a summer wedding will love the gorgeous cocktail dresses including a black lace number and a mini white frock with tassels.
The Neo-Victorian collection has just been released on Suzanne Harward’s brand new website and it can be purchased online with free worldwide shipping. Brides-to-be interested in seeing the wedding dresses live can attend a private Trunk Show from 26th to 28th February 2016 at the Establishment Hotel in Sydney. If you attend this exclusive event, you will be offered professional styling guidance from one of the talented couture stylists.
