In recent years, a trend has emerged where brides wear two dresses on their big day: one for their ceremony and another for the reception. However, this can become quite costly. Luckily, this inventive New Zealand-based designer developed a way around this by creating the world’s first reversible bridal collection.
Trish Peng was inspired by one of her brides to create her new line.
“The reversible dress idea came to life after one of my custom brides couldn’t decide between a lace or plain dress, but she knew exactly what silhouette she wanted,” Peng told Daily Mail Australia. “At her first fitting I was like, ‘why don’t we do both?! I will figure it out!’ So the idea of having two dresses in one was born. You simply flip it and reverse it, one for the ceremony, the other for the reception.”
The 2020 Reflections collection, which first featured at New York Bridal Fashion Week in October, features 11 versatile wedding gowns to offer brides multiple dress options in one.
“Introducing our brand new 2020 Reflections collection that features 11 reversible and versatile styles all inspired and named after our brides,” reads Peng’s website. “The gowns are available in every silhouette, they can be worn multiple ways, and you can even select your own fabric.”
One side typically features one crepe (or any plain fabric) side and one lace (any lace) side.
