What would happen if, years later, you could revisit your wedding dress? Would you choose differently? This is what designer Marmar Halim explores in her latest bridal collection, 1998. Named after the year she first got married, the collection reimagines what she might wear if given the chance to walk down the aisle again. Through twelve gowns—each representing a different version of herself and a different expression of love—Halim transforms nostalgia into a wearable feeling. The designs move effortlessly between sleek and fluid silhouettes to ones that play with volume and light. Luxurious fabrics like satin de ches, pleated lace, tulle, and crepe reveal this delicate balance of structure and softness, echoing Halim’s impeccably elegant aesthetic. Every gown is an embodiment of growth, memory, and transformation. The 1998 bride is self-assured, sentimental, and beautifully complex; she is a woman who honors her past while fearlessly rewriting her own love story.
