Anna Schimmel - European Bridal Designer

We were recommended to Claire by her friend Libby who was already a client. She was looking for something very luxurious, romantic, soft and unique. A feminine, petite woman of presence she had her heart set on a lace jacket and a strapless gown.

When discussing options with Claire she loved the idea of a vintage feel with contrasting textures of lace and chiffon.

Choosing a slender, classical shape we layered luscious satin, fine chiffon and delicate Spanish lace. Highlighted by an antique brooch, the beautiful lace edging trailed down the front, adding detail and an element of surprise. The gorgeous hand beaded lace jacket sparkled, framing the brides' beauty and completing the look.

Claire sent us her stunning photos and a card,
