Warrior Woman

Inspired by the strength of the feminine movement around the world & the warrior queen in each of us; The Bridal lookbook to come up with this avant garde representation of female strength.

Retrochic

As mentioned inspired by a bold use of colours and the retrochic style so popular for the spring/summer season coming up in the Northern Hemisphere we took this lookbook to a bit more in a dramatic interpretation. Slightly toned down in colour and volume it could be a perfect solution for brightening up those Mondays at the office.
