Against the crisp April air, we moved from polished uptown grandeur to experimental downtown romance, with ragu, ribbons, and reverie in between.

“Soirée’ Collection, arriving in Summer ’25”
Jenny Yoo invites us into a world of softened edges and sculptural romance with her upcoming Soirée’ Collection, arriving in Summer ’25. Moodboard moments of vintage muses, blooming florals, and draped fabrics hint at a story steeped in elegance and intimacy. Blending quiet luxury with modern femininity, this is bridalwear reimagined for the woman who commands a room—softly.

MONIQUE LHUILLIER | St. Regis Presentation

St. Regis Presentation, NYC

Set within the ornate walls of the St. Regis, Monique Lhuillier’s latest offering was all elegance and elevation. Signature embroidery and voluminous ballgowns returned with a sense of lightness. Timeless silhouettes were reworked with ethereal layers, illusion necklines, and cascading lace. This was a showcase for the bride whose fairytale begins with heritage but lands in the now.

KYHA STUDIOS KYHA BRIDE | Moon Plain Presentation at the Guggenheim

“A boundary-pushing, 23-piece collection”
Set against the sweeping curves of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, KYHA Studios unveiled Moon Plain, a boundary-pushing, 23-piece collection where interstellar glam met desert minimalism. Inspired by the haunting beauty of the Australian outback beneath a moonlit sky, the presentation redefined the future of bridal.
Metallics shimmered like stardust, with high-shine silvers and sculptural silhouettes making a bold case for celestial drama. A mirrored bubble mini, corseted gowns with exposed back lacing, and space-age accessories captured the brand’s signature fusion of strength and sensuality. This was bridal for the brave — an open invitation to walk down the aisle and into the unknown.

“A play between drama and delicacy“
Ines Di Santo’s runway felt operatic in scope. Sculpted tulle, daring silhouettes, and intricate beadwork were balanced with softness through sheer paneling, floral applique and feather detailing—a masterclass in scale and storytelling.

Spring/Summer 2026 ‘Pearla’ by Francesca Miranda

“Unfolded like a whispered conversation between the sea and the soul”
Francesca Miranda’s Spring/Summer 2026 bridal presentation, Pearla, unfolded like a whispered conversation between the sea and the soul. With a palette rooted in iridescence and an intimate atmosphere, the collection guests into a deeply textural, emotionally resonant moment.

The collection’s theme, a poetic interplay between women and the sea—came to life through tactile contrasts and fluid silhouettes. One gown, in particular, featured a luminous finish that gave the illusion of being wet, a deliberate nod to water’s reflective, mercurial beauty. It shimmered like moonlight on the ocean, sculpted with architectural elegance and emotional softness.

CINQ | Collection V Runway

The day closed with CINQ’s spellbinding Collection V, staged inside a candlelit West Village salon draped in moss and old-world charm. Offbeat accessories, corseted gowns, and ruffled aprons unfolded like a storybook. Cinematic and nostalgic, this was bridalwear for the romantic renegade.

LUME WEST VILLAGE | Editor’s Pause
We stopped at Lume in the West Village between shows for a bowl of rich ragu Bolognese and a glass of wine. A warm, elegant pause that perfectly mirrored the day’s theme: bold, beautiful contrast.
