Our focus is on creating luxury and beautiful wedding gowns with a difference, for the non-traditional alternative bride. We specialise in creating black wedding dresses, black veils and accessories to match. With the knowledge that we are one of very few wedding dress designers specialising in this field, we are making our range of dresses as varied as possible. We can also alter our dresses to suit your needs or design requirements. Available in UK size 4 to UK size 26 as standard, with custom sizing available upon request.

Our designs are heavily inspired by myth and folklore. Those of you who are also drawn to ancient tales will have noticed that our designs are named after goddesses and deities, supernatural beings and immortals.

We love to celebrate individuality and believe each one of us deserves to feel the magic in our veins and dance to the music of our hearts, and our aim is to enable you to be your own, untamed Legend on your wedding day.
