Hello!
​
I am Ruth Bronwen Bridge, the designer behind the label. My passion for dressmaking began at a young age, and over the years, I have honed my skills through hands-on experience and a drive to push the boundaries of couture design. Being self-taught has given me a unique, unconventional approach to couture dressmaking, allowing me to bring fresh perspectives to every piece I create.
​
Now, with over a decade of experience in luxury and bridalwear industry, I approach each wedding dress with a technical mindset, focusing on precision in pattern cutting and tailoring, while also embracing texture, transparency, and modern forms. Every wedding dress is crafted with the finest fabrics, paying careful attention to both structure and fluidity to create a distinctive look that is as individual as the wearer.
​
For me, design is personal. I truly enjoy getting to know my clients and understanding their unique stories. This connection is at the heart of every gown I create, ensuring that it not only reflects their vision but also feels like an extension of who they are. From the first sketch to the final fitting, the process is a collaboration, with every detail considered to ensure a perfect fit and lasting impression.
