HEIRLOOM MOMENTS: Emilia Wickstead’s new bridal collection distilled her love for mid-century couture rigor into a modern proposition for the big day, with several styles resembling the Wickstead-designed bespoke lace gown Harriet Sperling wore to marry Peter Phillips, the son of Princess Anne, in June.
Silhouettes span the architectural and the fluid. One style, called the Fiona, hugs the body in sculpted pleats that fall into a soft train, while the Parisa and Fano looks explore volume with draped ball skirts and sweeping cascades of pleats.
For brides drawn to the cleaner, portrait‑style elegance seen in Sperling’s wedding gown, Wickstead offered parallel lines in Italian duchesse and silk mikado with off‑the‑shoulder necklines, elongated torsos and linear trains.
