After graduating from Central St Martins in 1994 with a BA in Fashion Design and Printed Textiles, Matthew Willaimson’s collections have continued to gain momentum and today he is known as one of the UK’s leading designer talents. Following the success of his former Bridal Spring/Summer 2010 collection designed exclusively for Net-a-Porter, 2011 will see the launch of the complete bridal range. The collection will be showcased exclusively at White Gallery London on the catwalk show and also on a stand where buyers and retailers from around the globe are invited to preview.

Fong Ee, a spokeseperson from Matthew Williamson, commented on the new launch: “Elements of the designer’s signature style, such as embroidery and intricate beadwork, are re-worked to create a collection with an elegant, yet bohemian spirit.”

“They [the designs] also feature a high level of craftsmanship, which is evident through the fine embroidery, ornate beading and use of luxurious fabrics.”
