Behind the scenes of the Ellis Bridal 2014 Shoot

We love seeing our accessories paired with beautiful dresses and so when the lovely folks at Ellis Bridals approached us to borrow some pieces for their 2014 Blossom Collection shoot we were only too happy to help! I am sure you will agree that this year’s collection was just breathtaking.

So here is the behind the scenes low-down just for you plus a hint of what’s to come in the new season.

WD:  How was the shoot styled & where was it shot?

EB: We chose a beautifully grand building in the centre of London to shoot the Blossom Collection, its detailed walls and wonderful large windows served as the perfect frame to the designs. Being the Blossom Collection we filled the room with fresh flowers giving the shoot an almost dreamlike quality as they arced across the back wall and surrounded the model giving great depth to the imagery. Dotted around the room we also arranged a selection of handpicked antique furniture, which along with the opulent building also echoed the brands illustrious history.

WD: What was the inspiration for the Blossom Collection? 

EB: A blossoming flower brings new life. It represents true feminine beauty and their transitory nature embodied the collection. The new designs and imagery were a real progression for us, and the blossom flower worked perfectly as a symbol of change.

 WD: What can we expect next from Ellis Bridals next collection?

 EB: The new dresses for 2015 are very varied, ranging from slinky 1920’s numbers to glamorous ball gowns in flowing soft tulle all with the brands signature delicate detailing. The designs will have an even more clean, fresh feel to them working in a range of new fabrics and colours but still with strong romantic overtones running through it.

We can’t wait to see what they have in store for 2015!
