Our Newest Designer Collection: Melissa Sweet for David’s Bridal

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2012

by Melissa Sweet

I’m thrilled to be able to collaborate my design perspective with the David’s team.  I have always admired the way David’s Bridal is able to deliver an amazing quality wedding gown for such an affordable price.  No one else seems to have mastered this.  My partnership with David’s enables us to bring the Melissa Sweet aesthetic to brides who may never have otherwise had the opportunity to experience it.

The Melissa Sweet Collection combines a softly modern aesthetic with classical dressmaking techniques. Exquisite detailing includes cascading lace, beautiful ribbon trims, and intricate hand-sewn beading. The gowns are polished yet pretty, fluid and captivating…the perfect gown for the modern romantic. For me, as a designer, I’m excited to get to know a whole new world of brides.
