Anne Barge

For her Fall 2027 collection, Anne Barge's Something Blue was a space draped with powdery blue fixtures inside the Fifth Avenue Hotel. In typical Anne Barge fashion, styles ranged from floral-decorated veils to more sculptural pieces—some in deeper ivory hues. Editors and stylists were seated in fours around mahjong tables for the brand's latest collaboration and launch with Mahj Tile House. Drop waists held a steady presence, as did a range of airy fabrics inspired, according to the designer, by "the effortless beauty of a life lived by the water."

Berta

On a sunny Tuesday morning in SoHo, Berta debuted their Fall 2027 wedding dress styles during an intimate runway show. The audience enjoyed tiramisu scooped into ever-so-on-trend silver coupes as they took in the romantic and sultry silhouettes of the collection's gowns. The looks spanned from coquette-esque lace dresses adorned with ruffles and bows to silky, sparkly frocks, many of which were accompanied by thoughtful matching accessories like lace chokers and one sparkling, fringed, draped hooded capelet that offered a unique alternative to a veil. Most were constructed with a slightly sheer corset bodice and, though plunges and unique takes on the sweetheart neckline were also ever present.

New Berta Wedding Dress Styles:

• A strapless, drop-waist gown with a tulle skirt topped with a sheer corset of delicate lace with exposed boning
• A strapless lace mini adorned with long strands of beaded fringe attached at the neckline, extending past the hem to the mid calf
• A lace, drop-waist A-line gown with a corset top, detached opera-length sleeves with ruffled cuffs and a bow on each hip

Fresh off of designing the bridal suite at the historic Beringer Vineyards in Napa Valley, the ever-ethereal Claire Pettibone presented four new gowns as part of her Rococo collection at a 10th-floor salon in the Garment District, inspired by the intricate design aesthetic and unabashed romance of the era. Amongst the wistful, frothy details were candy-colored pastels, gold filigree, sparkling embellishments reminiscent of estate jewelry and some of the most intricate lace you can imagine. Not to mention: The all-Lana Del Rey playlist was the perfect soundtrack to view these deeply nostalgic, romantic designs.

New Claire Pettibone Wedding Dress Styles:

• An ivory, drop-waist gown lined in blue silk with flowing long sleeves and floral applique embellishments
• A tiered French embroidered empire silhouette dress with draped sleeves, ornate beading and dangling jewels
• A strapless chiffon bustier dress with lace inserts, floral appliques and a lightly sheer skirt

Elie Saab

Elie Saab presented their Fall 2027 wedding dress styles beneath the buttercream frosting-ornate crown molding of The Elizabeth Collective in Midtown. No less intricate: the gowns sprinkled throughout the space like pieces of art (and they are). Embellishments like floral appliques and sparkly bits like sequins, feathers and beads abounded in tasteful excess, along with quite a few full skirts, long trains and slightly sheer fabrics. The unique juxtaposition between the linear and the feminine, however, is what struck us most. One gown had the ladylike lines of a bustier adorned with a bow on the bodice, contrasting with its skirt's beading pattern, which shimmered with geometric rectangles. Another balanced a sleek silhouette and a bodice constructed with chevron-like pleats with frilly, three-dimensional flowers adding volume at the hips.

New Elie Saab Wedding Dress Styles:

• A square-neck gown with a voluminous skirt that's decorated with crystals.
• A column-style, ankle-length dress with fluffy floral detailing on each hip and a train attached at the knees
• A full-tulle gown with an extra-long train and extra volume at the hips that makes the wearer appear as an angel with clouds at their waist

HONOR

HONOR hosted a line of eager attendees at their cotton-candy dreamscape of a SoHo salon to preview their latest collection. A vision board positioned at the entrance of the space was filled with scraps of lace, vintage horror film title cards, dark-surrealist art, black-and-white photographs and a wiggled bow that mimics that stark-white squiggle of the Bride of Frankenstein's iconic hairdo gave guests a taste of what was to come. The curation of gowns inside aptly balanced the ethereal with the gothic, with dashes of coquette femininity and '20s cinema siren. The detail of the day: delicate black lace. (Hi it's Cat, breaking the fourth wall: This presentation was so gorgeous it gave me chills.)

New HONOR Wedding Dress Styles:

• A '20s-esque charmeuse slip dress with a lace bottom trim and a bow and button illusion neckline
• A spire lace and tiered pin-dot tulle gown with a chantille bow drape detail and black lace bow straps

Ines di Santo

In a sunny, high-ceilinged studio in Flatiron, Ines Di Santo presented two new collections for Fall/Winter 2027. The first: Fade into Light, a slate of gowns from the eponymous designer inspired by "sun-drenched landscapes, weathered architecture and the interplay of light and shadow." The frocks presented were rich and sensory with lush ballgowns and kisses of color, and referential details to lush tropical florals like bougainvillea. The second: "Tanto Amor" by Veronica Di Santo captures the magic and hidden beauty found in a sunlit afternoon. The dresses shown displayed contrast between clean silhouettes and Talavera-inspired patterns, and all felt effortless, yet refined.

New Ines Di Santo Wedding Dress Styles:

• A sheer lace fit-and-flare with frontal buttons, long sleeves and a sheer construction revealing a bodysuit underneath
• A dramatic terracotta-pink gown with an extra-long train, voluminous organza skirt and strapless sweetheart bodice and an abstract pattern with highlights or sun-baked orange and pale mauve

Julie Vino

Julie Vino showed off her new collection, "L'Aura," during an intimate runway show that took place on the parlor level of a historic Greenwich Village brownstone on W 10th Street. In between the herringbone floors and crystal chandeliers, models swanned in looks inspired by the feeling that unfolds before a bride enters the room, a sense of light, presence and feminine energy. (A fitting muse, given how buzzy and anticipatory the atmosphere in the room was before the opening model took her first steps.) In abundance: lace, sparkle, ornate details, corset backs, silhouettes that balance softness and structure.

New Julie Vino Wedding Dress Styles:

• An ivory A-line gown made from floral corded lace over fine net with an opaque lining and a longline corset bodice, dropped basque waist and plunging halter framed with scalloped eyelash lace
• A strapless, fitted-sheath gown with a romantic, gently flared skirt made from embellished fine tulle as well as a sculpted sweetheart neckline with a dimensional rosette detail placed in the middle and thin strands of beading that lend a silver-white sparkle
• A slim, sparkling fit-and-flare gown made from embellished floral eyelash lace and showing off revealing illusion details, a chapel train, trumpet hem and sweetheart bodice topped with a high stand collar and lace yoke

Justin Alexander

Eager attendees were ushered through red velvet drapes and into the sumptuous, swanky candlelit interior of So & So's Piano Bar in Hell's Kitchen to preview Justin Alexander's Fall/Winter 2027 collection, "Crescendo." The 16 gowns displayed during the presentation all leaned relatively classic, yet each had a unique detail that made the eye linger longer (truly, we couldn't stop staring at these stunners if we tried). Onlookers abandoned their bubbles and espresso martinis to snap photos of the gowns in a paparazzi-like frenzy, with the camera flashes illuminating details like skirts with gathered crossovers at the waist, delicate lace paired with drop waists and the occasional kiss of sparkle or pearls. The show closed with a satin princess-seam gown with an arc neckline and fabric that shimmered like liquid, and attendees were sent into the crisp evening with a vision of that shine and a petite box of matches.

New Justin Alexander Wedding Dress Styles:

• Princess seams paired with liquid satin
• A gown with an asymmetric skirt that looks effortlessly draped in an almost Grecian fashion
• Delicate lace paired with a drop waist

KYHA

The ever-chic Kyha Scott welcomed attendees to her NoHo salon to preview her Fall 2027 collection, Josephine. Each look in the 26-piece collection nods to the eclectic energy of 1970s Spain, where everyone from artists to politicians would mix and mingle during their leisure time on the sun-soaked shores of the Balearic Islands. From bodices that shape the body like the world's most flattering one-piece swimsuit, to scarf-inspired details, to tulle skirts that rise and fall like waves, the narrative through line was apparent in each and every look. The result? A collection that reads as effortless, romantic and a little nostalgic with a modern edge.

New KYHA Wedding Dress Styles:

• A scoop-neck dress with a structured, swimsuit-like bodice, double-satin fabrication with an asymmetric draped skirt and a side slit
• A high-halter fit and flare with a sexy open back and gold hardware detail
• A dress showing off a satin bodice with a full tulle skirt with an asymmetric waist

Before a group of editors, stylists, fashion executives, and friends of the brand, Grebenau shared heartfelt remarks about her late mother and how she dedicated this collection in her memory.

Mira Zwillinger held an intimate preview in a suite at the St. Regis to debut her Fall/Winter2027 couture capsule, "Rise Above," a continuation from her Spring/Summer collection, "The Rise." The seven-look capsule displayed botanical and floral motifs adorning classic silhouettes (think: flowing leaves and lightly three-dimensional floral appliques) and bedecking full skirts of airy fabric. The looks felt elegant, but not stuffy, with a touch of romance and movement, thanks to the airy sheer fabrics that constructed each skirt.

New Mira Zwillinger Wedding Dress Styles:

• A strapless A-line gown with a silk mikado sweetheart bodice and an airy, yet luxurious train decorated with the brand's signature cascading leaf embroidery
• A gown with a mikado silk corset with a subtle cat-eye neckline topping a voluminous tulle skirt decorated with handmade, hand-applied mikado flowers within the layers, paired with a dimensional mikado choker piece

Pnina Tornai

In the subterranean space of Halo NYC in the Financial District, the iconic Pnina Tornai debuted her Eden 2027 couture collection, made from "bits of magic" in the words of the designer. The dramatic runway kicked off with a hand-beaded chantilly lace bodysuit beaded with droplet crystals, the look's ethereal organza skirt blowing around as the model posed. Notably, rose details appeared across the collection's gowns, whether in the form of oversized blossoms adorning either side of an organza skirt, trailing from halter ties or covering an elaborate train. Color came into play too, namely blush pink (including in the form of two short dresses worn by ballerinas who danced down the runway), black, juicy red and a pop or purple, and vintage-y fringed shawls with handpainted florals proved to be the "it" accessory of the show.

New Pnina Tornai Wedding Dress Styles:

• A satin mermaid dress with a scoop neck and halter, ruffled basque waist and oversized roses on each hip with trailing vines
• A chantilly lace and tulle godet gown with swagged clear crystals across the bodice with a matching crystal neck and shoulder piece

Here, the designer unveiled the 2028 Ricca Sposa Couture and Yuliia Lobachova Couture collections. Lace was the dominant fabric across the collections, with some styles offering a sultry moment via exposed boning and lingerie-esque details. And from halters, to mock necks, to sculpted sweethearts and more, each neckline proved equal parts eye catching and flattering.

New Ricca Sposa Wedding Dress Styles:

Rita Vinieres debuted two new truly exquisite collections for the Fall/Winter 2027 season, Alyne and Rivini, at a salon perched above the Garment District. Both collections were driven by proportion—capturing that perfect silhouette, then letting the construction follow suit until both are aligned in harmony. The designs were each quietly captivating: Mikado silk and delicately feminine corded lace appeared in abundance, as did trails of covered buttons and gasps of awe in the room. A unique detail to note: a wing-tip back on two gowns that made the wearer look like an angel.

New Rita Vinieres Wedding Dress Styles:

• A strapless, A-line, silk mikado gown that displays a sweeping train, covered buttons, with a straight neckline and detached Opera-length sleeves both trimmed in scalloped corded Leavers lace
• A ballgown made of silk magnolia with a sculpted, boned bodice that ends in a dramatic wing-tip back and detached Opera-length sleeves

Founder Vatana Watters warmly greeted guests alongside Sydney Watters Rohleder, Watters Brand Director and her daughter, as models donning their latest collection milled and mingled throughout the space. A violinist played classical renditions of pop music a la Bridgerton, which only added to the elegant and wistful atmosphere. Buttercream silks, structured corset tops and vintage-like lace were in abundance throughout the gowns, and giggles and happy chatter over glasses of bubbly rang out in the room.
