Learn more about “Les Trois Soeurs Bridal” As a boutique at the forefront of London’s bridal scene, it’s only fitting that they feature the luxury and exquisite gowns of British designer Caroline Castigliano. In an exclusive interview with Les Trois Soeurs Bridal, Castigliano admitted that she believes in “a very understated look”, and what matters more than extravagent design is the cut of the dress itself. “For me, everything is about the cut”, and no matter how brilliant an idea is, if the cut isn’t “absolutely accurate”, then it is merely “just another dress”. A special dress must “move fantastically” and be styled by someone “who truly understands bodyshape”.
With this in mind, Castigliano entrusted Les Trois Soeurs Bridal to feature her masterpieces, so here you will find flawless cuts and knowledgeable professionals.
