Richard Nicoll designs bridal line for Topshop

London Fashion Week designer Richard Nicoll is returning to Topshop this summer with his Blushing Brides collection. The wedding-dress inspired range marks his sixth collaboration for the high street retailer and the first wedding range for

both the designer and the brand.

The capsule collection comprises of seven dresses, both full-length and short, featuring lace and silk dresses in both pure white and pale shell-pink. All designs showcase Nicoll’s signature style of contrasting sheer and matte fabrics with tailored and floaty shapes.

The highlight of the collection is the limited edition floor-length wedding dress with a silk bodice, georgette underskirt and peplum, as well as the modern short white lace sleeve dress.

"I loved the idea of doing wedding dresses with Topshop because I wanted to offer a younger, cooler alternative to meringue culture, something special, but not precious, like my friends, something they would wear if they were getting married. These pieces are perfect as party dresses too if you're not the marrying kind," said Nicoll.

The Richard Nicoll for Topshop bridal collection priced from £90 to £350 hits stores from June 15 in the UK and will be sold at Topshop Oxford Circus, Selfridges, and Brompton Road, as well as online at Topshop.com. The line will also be available in Topshop’s American stores in New York, Las Vegas and Chicago from July 4.
