When Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle stepped out in a floor length, halter Stella McCartney gown to depart for the couple’s second wedding reception last May, she left many wondering why on Earth the British designer label hadn’t launched a bridal collection yet.
Well, now it has, and it was worth the wait. This week, Stella McCartney announced the launch of their first collection of bridal wear, called ‘Made with Love’.
The collection features 17 pieces, including an embroidered lace jumpsuit and an ivory tuxedo “for the modern woman; a new perspective on the traditional that is effortless, confident and naturally sexy, made with signature Stella attitude,” the label said on its website.
Each piece is made in a factory in Italy with a history of meticulous craftsmanship, and made of sustainable fabrics as per the brand’s philosophy.
“Staying true to Stella’s environmentally-friendly ethos, garments are crafted using luxurious sustainable viscose and updates on traditional couture fabrics.”
Making every piece that much more special is a ‘Made with Love’ blue tag attached to the dress, intended to act as the bride’s ‘something blue’.
