About the designer

Founded in 2008 by New Zealand-born, London-based designer Emilia Wickstead, the label built its reputation on a modern interpretation of classic femininity, pairing refined tailoring with sculptural silhouettes and a sophisticated use of color. A Central Saint Martins graduate, Wickstead debuted her bridal line shortly after launching the brand, beginning with her own wedding gown in 2011.

Wickstead's bridal designs carry the same architectural elegance that defines her ready-to-wear: structured necklines, clean lines, and unexpected yet timeless details, softened by fluid textures and romantic sheerness. The result is a sophisticated, minimalist approach to bridal wear favored by aristocrats and modern brides alike, made for anyone who wants a refined, understated elegance on her wedding day.

Clientele | Wickstead has dressed Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle, Gwyneth Paltrow, Rosamund Pike, and Gillian Anderson, and her designs have also been worn by Samantha Cameron, Kate Bosworth, Diane Kruger, Alexa Chung, and Emma Stone. She is widely known as one of the Princess of Wales's favorite designers, having created several bespoke pieces worn on official royal engagements.
