Calling all brides -to-be.

I know it’s only the end of January but if you’re getting married this summer, and you’re on a budget, now is the time to start planning.

Brides have an increasing number of budget op­tions. Monsoonwas always the ‘High Street Go To’ for wedding dresses under £250 but now French Con­nec­tion’s 2019 bridal col­lec­tion has become a strong contender. Collectively, they beg the ques­tion, “why spend three months wages on one sin­gle gown”.

Those look­ing for a tra­di­tional dress for their up­com­ing nup­tials might find the Emilina dress ap­peal­ing. With lace sleeves and a full-skirt, it’s an up­date on the Palermo gown, which was a best­seller from the re­tail­er’s 2018 col­lec­tion. While there are no cup­cake gowns this sea­son, there is a slick col­umn dress and a lace midi-dress with a fluted skirt and pock­ets that feel very con­tem­po­rary.

Brides­maid aren’t for­got­ten either. In sor­bet shades of rasp­berry, straw­berry and lemon, this mi­cro-range is de­signed to com­plement the bridal wear. Each dress has hero de­tails such as flo­ral em­broi­dery, lace or bursts of beads.

Af­ter such a pos­i­tive re­ac­tion from cus­tomers to­wards their de­but bridal col­lec­tion last year, launch­ing a sec­ond cap­sule for 2019 was a no brainer.. The essence of the col­lec­tion re­tains its mod­ern fem­i­nine French Con­nec­tion iden­tity, evolv­ing the most pop­u­lar de­signs.

The Palermo dress from 2018 was a best­seller, for the cus­tomer who loves in­tri­cate hand-em­bell­ish­ment and a clas­sic bridal shape. But the beautiful Emelina dress for 2019 brings a new el­e­ment to this time­less de­sign.

 

The latest col­lec­tion launches on the 18th of Feb­ru­ary, but keen brides-to-be can pre-or­der from FC’s ‘The wedding Shop’ on­line from the 1st of Feb­ru­ary.

Now to find the shoes…
