Monique Lhuillier Bride

Monique Lhuillier made a striking return to the New York Bridal Fashion Week runway with her Fall 2026 Bridal Collection. Romantic silhouettes, rendered in luscious shades of ivory and cream, appeared as though sculpted through an ethereal lens. A sharp bridal mini dripping with dimensional blooms, a hooded gown in expressive lace, and a dramatic cape crafted entirely from pleated floral motifs stood out as defining moments. Tactile florals anchored the collection with oversized 3D rosettes and textured laces that were seen in nearly every look. As always, the gowns moved with weightless grace, their fluidity revealing the couture-level precision behind each piece. The Lhuillier bride feels fearless and bold, balancing sculptural minis and cathedral-length veils with sleek tailoring and refined touch. Jewelry doubled as unexpected closures or intentionally mismatched accents, highlighting the designer’s embrace of individuality and playful tension.
