Happy 25th Birthday Bertossi Brides!

Our lovely friends at Bertossi Brides are celebrating their 25th anniversary! We’ve been fans since the beginning and we’re still falling in love with their work.

At the heart of Bertossi Brides is the talented woman who started it all, Anne Bertossi. Growing up surrounded by fabrics (her father was a pattern cutter and her mum is a seamstress who still works with Anne today), Anne was first inspired when she was working in a bridal shop and noticed that many dresses weren’t exactly climate-friendly – and so Bertossi Brides was born!

Three years quickly flew by and after making a name for herself, Anne opened the award-winning Paddington Weddings with her sister Gill as business manager. It’s here she still meets with brides and creates timeless dresses from the highest quality fabrics. “Fabric is always my inspiration for my collections – a fabric mill to me is like Disneyland to a child,” she explains. Twenty-five years have quickly passed and we’ve loved seeing all the gorgeous dresses (and brides) along the way. So, of course, we had to ask: what’s next for Bertossi Brides? “I want to continue to make my brides’ dreams come true with beautiful dresses,” says Anne. “I’ve never taken for granted how lucky I am to do what I love!”
