BON BRIDÉ

We have been working with Pippa’s unique brand, Bon Bridé, since 2021.

Bon Bridé brides chose an individual and uncompromising take on femininity, for certain evocative. They are unafraid to make non-conformist choices, putting their personal stamp on how they celebrate their wedding.

The typical Bon Bridé bride’s look is often brave and bold, representing self-expression. It is about strong individuality and making a personal statement. It can sometimes redefine the modern bridal look: radical low back and front lines, oversized sleeves, corsets, and tulle dresses worn over wedding shorts, as well as more structured, corseted gowns.

Pippa’s tag line: “Bon Bridé brides dresses are about women and for women who dress for themselves with feminist principles at their core, breaking the norms of the modern wedding”.  Her design references include fashion, culture, raw urban elements, and history-based themes. The cutting-edge bridal look primarily refers to existing bridal designs in terms of colour choice, rather than anything else.

BON BRIDÉ ALTERATIONS

With high-quality fabrics and non-conformist styles, Bon Bridé dresses are well-suited for alteration, and alteration costs usually remain affordable. We can advise brides on their choice of undergarments to have support if necessary.

BON BRIDÉ & SUSTAINABILITY

Like we do, Pippa feels strongly about sustainability.  Each of her styles can be easily worn again, either altered or slightly restyled to create a unique post-wedding party look.  We offer a 10% discount on post-wedding Bon Bridé alterations and restyling to extend the joy of wearing Pippa’s beautiful dresses again and again.

Appointments: We work by appointment, within which you will be looked after by one of our experienced fitting consultants. They will advise you on alterations needed to fit your bridal wear well. A price estimate will be established at the end of the fitting for you to decide whether or not you are comfortable going forward with the alteration. We can offer a variety of solutions to alter your garment; some might save costs. Please ask. 

*Please bring your shoes to your appointment or some with a similar heel height as well as your undergarments to ensure we can fit your bridal garments perfectly. 

Fittings are available in our spacious studio in Battersea. 

Charges: Due to many styles and finishes, it is difficult to provide an estimate for you on the phone. We need to see your bridal wear, the inside construction and also you wearing it. Charges for similar alterations may vary, in particular for complex, constructed dresses and heavily detailed designer wear. Our bridal charges are based on time at a rate of £90 per hour. For bridal alterations closer to your wedding date than 6 weeks, express charges will apply. 

Discounts: We offer a 25% discount on the alterations for all members of the bridal party including bridesmaids, mother-of-the-brides and grooms, the groom and the father-of-the-bride or groom.
