OOOF I know, what a title, but we actually do still need to talk about this. Recently, I was styling a shoot with a UK size 26 model. Absolutely 10/10 stunner of a babe. The shoot was incredible (quick phone snap preview above!!) and you’ll see the rest of the photos in the magazine soon. BUT LET ME TELL YOU, it was so hard to find designers who actually had size 26 samples available to loan or try on.

Wedding magazines have spent decades explaining how to find the right dress. Silhouettes, necklines, trains, veils, fittings and alterations have all been analysed to death. But if you want to get married in a suit the advice becomes considerably less helpful.

Buying a wedding dress online has some obvious advantages. You can shop at midnight, avoid fitting-room spotlights and browse designs from independent labels around the world without travelling further than your sofa. It can also be a lot cheaper and opens up far more possibilities than the average bridal boutique, particularly if you want a black dress, a corset and skirt, a short hemline or something more unique.

Your Wedding Isn’t a Board Meeting: What To Wear if You’re an Alternative Groom With Taste

Guest Contributor

July 22, 2026

For some reason, wedding fashion advice assumes grooms are happy to disappear into a sea of identical suits while all the personality gets reserved for the bride. Grooms tend to get handed the same options: black suit, navy suit, grey suit... or if you're really out there, maybe a bit of tweed. But if your wardrobe already leans towards the darker side, your wedding doesn't need to be the one day you dress like you're headed to a corporate awards dinner.

If you've spent any time on wedding TikTok or Instagram, you've probably picked up a long list of rules about finding your dress. You'll know it's "The One." You'll cry. Your mum will cry. Your entourage will gasp. Angels will sing. The boutique will hand you a glass of prosecco and it'll be just like a moment from your favourite Rom Com when everything in life falls back into place.

What Does Having a ‘Luxury Wedding’ Really Mean in 2026?

Guest Contributor

July 3, 2026

Spend five minutes on wedding Instagram and you'll probably see the word luxury at least a dozen times. Luxury wedding planner. Luxury venue. Luxury styling. Luxury stationery. Luxury bridal gowns. Yet somewhere along the way, it's lost all meaning. It's no longer used to describe a certain level of craftsmanship and has started becoming shorthand for a particular aesthetic.

The Myth of the Bridal Uniform: How to Ditch the Costume & Wear What You Want

Ragged Romances

June 29, 2026

For generations, wedding fashion has come with a strange rulebook - white dress, floor length, something borrowed, something uncomfortable. And while tradition can be beautiful and meaningful, it can also be a problem if it starts to feel more like a costume that you’re expected to wear rather than a choice you’ve thoughtfully considered.

There is a huge disconnect in the wedding world. One partner can spend a year hunting for the perfect outfit while the other ends up in a rented tux chosen a fortnight before the wedding. It doesn't have to be that way.

The Wedding Dress Shopping Questions Nobody Thinks to Ask

Spring Summer Collective

May 29, 2026

Most brides go into wedding dress shopping focused on what they want their dress to look like. You’ve probably saved necklines, silhouettes and sleeve details to Pinterest boards for months… but once you actually start to try dresses on, it will suddenly start to dawn on you that there are a lot of practical considerations too. A 20-foot train may look incredible on a mood board, but in reality, it will frustrate you before the ceremony is even over. A long sleeve gown may be the vison in your head, but if you’re getting married in the height of summer, think again. That basque waist may be stunning, but can you sit down and eat while wearing it?
