New York Bridal Fashion Week 2025 unfolded in a stunning display of romance, craftsmanship, and innovation. Designers brought forward bold visions that challenged tradition while embracing timeless elegance.

NYBFW 2025 was a celebration of modern romance and powerful femininity, featuring collections that fused timeless silhouettes with contemporary artistry. Here are five standout runway moments that left an indelible mark on this season’s bridal narrative.

1. BERTA’s Commanding Corset Comeback

The BERTA 2026 collection was a show-stopping statement of elegance and edge. Known for redefining sensuality in bridalwear, the label returned to the runway with its signature hand-embellished lace, daring necklines, and figure-skimming shapes.

This season, BERTA elevated the look further with dramatic sculptural bodices, sheer panels, and subtle sparkle—creating a regal yet contemporary aesthetic. The interplay between structured shoulders and fluid lace defined the house’s new chapter: unapologetically bold and sophisticated.

2. Dana Harel’s ‘Ella’ Gown: Minimalism in Motion

Dana Harel’s Swan Collection took a softer, more architectural approach to bridalwear. Clean, strapless bodices and expertly draped skirts exuded quiet confidence, while embroidered veils added romantic dimension.

The highlight was the ‘Ella’ gown—a Grecian-inspired one-shoulder piece that effortlessly fused simplicity with couture detail. With its modern lines and restrained elegance, this gown was a clear standout for brides drawn to timeless design with a sculptural edge.

3. Andrew Kwon’s Watercolor Reverie

Andrew Kwon’s Aquarelle collection felt like stepping into a painting. Shown inside The Ritz-Carlton New York, NoMad, the presentation matched the gowns’ ethereal ambiance.

Soft chiffons, fluid organzas, and delicate embroidery shimmered under the natural light, reflecting the designer’s lakeside childhood inspiration. Each gown seemed to float—crafted to express strength through softness. Kwon’s unique blend of personal memory and couture mastery brought a dreamlike serenity to the runway.

4.  Odylyne the Ceremony’s Celestial Statement

Stephanie White’s Her Majesty the Moon collection for Odylyne The Ceremony was both spiritual and striking. Inspired by lunar mysticism, the gowns combined vintage shapes with modern fabrications. Think voluminous sleeves paired with sheer corseted waists and layers of pearlescent shimmer.

The standout moment was a moonlit ball gown that moved like liquid light. For the romantic bride with a taste for the ethereal, this collection offered an otherworldly escape grounded in impeccable tailoring.

5. Monique Lhuillier’s Coastal Daydream

Monique Lhuillier, ever the dream-maker, unveiled a collection full of floral appliqués and romantic silhouettes. Her gowns this season felt lighter, more effortless—like they were made for barefoot brides on the Amalfi Coast.

Airy tulles, soft pastels, and flowing skirts gave each piece a breezy elegance. And the powder blue lining on one gown? Chef’s kiss. Lhuillier reminded us once again why she’s the go-to for modern brides who want a touch of fairytale with their fashion.
