Choosing a wedding dress is very important for every girl. The most difficult thing is to decide on its design, because every famous designer of wedding dresses has his own priorities and features that distinguish him from the rest. The Blanche Moscow wedding salon presents to your attention various collections, including Galia Lahav wedding dresses and Gatti Nolli wedding dresses.
Some designers specialize in modern outfits, others in classic ones, and others combine both in their works. For example, designer Jenny Packham is considered more bohemian, and Monique Lhuillet is considered more vibrant and feminine. Discovering a designer's work allows you to choose a look that best suits your personal style and makes you feel good about their work.

Top 5 famous Russian designers
Do you think that only foreign designers with flashy names have worldwide fame and demand? Not at all. To convince you, I have compiled a list of Russian couturiers, after which, I hope, if the question arises of what to choose, you will first take a look at domestic “artists”.
Valentin Yudashkin
Just think, a man who once created harsh uniforms for Russian soldiers can paint such delicate wedding robes with his “brush.” The Valentin Yudashkin brand is far from new to the world of high fashion; its fame goes beyond the borders of the country. The name of our designer is especially familiar in Paris, where his models shine at fashion weeks.
The wedding dresses he created are feminine and elegant, emphasizing a sexy body with minimal exposure of skin. Yudashkin’s favorite style is the mermaid silhouette, which in the designer’s fantasies turns into a real fairy tale. Pastel colors, elegant lace and handmade embroidery are the main principles of couturier. I suggest you look at them yourself in the photo selection.
Natalia Romanova
Our next designer comes from Nizhny Novgorod.
When Natalia Romanova realized that her sketches, brought to life, had their own “spectators,” the NRcouture brand of the same name was created, which today is recognized not only in Russia, but also abroad. In addition, the Sonesta brand was born, which is already a great success. Although Natalia tries to adhere to the classical canons, experiments can be discerned in her masterpieces. And then, each collection has its own theme and in every possible way corresponds to the chosen style. And the designer has countless numbers of the latter. The sizes are also varied, because according to the couturier himself, her outfits are created for ordinary girls, and it is necessary to take into account the characteristics of the figure of each of them. NRcouture creates airy and flowy looks using the highest quality materials.
Angelina Androsova
Wedding photographer Angelina Androsova worked so inspiredly that she eventually began creating dresses on her own. As they say, a talented person is talented in everything. She became one of the leading Russian designers. Angelina herself describes her style this way:
The main feature of my creativity is lightness. I prefer watercolor images and soft tones. I can say the same about makeup and hairstyle - everything should be naturally emphasized. I try to put the spirit of refined feminine beauty into my creations.
Having created his own brand Dream&Dress, the designer creates dream outfits corresponding to the name. The love, time and effort that she puts into the images yields results - the satisfied and happy faces of the brides dressed in her outfits.
Created by creative hands, Angelina's outfits carry an unprecedented feminine energy and emphasize the intangibility of body and soul. The most delicate dresses can be bought in Moscow, Krasnodar, St. Petersburg and other cities of Russia, as well as in Prague, where the creations of our designer are displayed in one of the fashion salons.
Ulyana Sergeenko
Being from Kazakhstan, philologist Ulyana Sergeenko represents Russia with dignity in foreign high fashion. Ultimately, in 2011, Ulyana founded her own fashion house, which became easily recognizable abroad. She started with a small studio in Moscow and in 6 years achieved considerable success, which some do not achieve in their entire life.
The designer is distinguished by his craving for forgotten and existing crafts. She is looking for true masters of their craft and spares no expense or time to achieve this. As a result, the outfits created by Ulyana incorporate traditional Russian motifs, the romance of literary images and European glamorous style. The results are very original examples of creative imagination. However, I suggest you look at their photo selection for yourself.
Oksana Mukha
When you can’t find a suitable wedding dress, you have to trust your own imagination. This is what happened with Ukrainian designer Oksana Mukha. In her life, her own wedding became the impetus for the beginning of a new and important stage - becoming a couturier. As a result, the designer received designer salons in Paris, Berlin, Bucharest and shows in many foreign cities.
Lace, airy skirts and graceful corsets, combined with the unlimited possibilities of our couturier’s creative thought, become simply masterpieces of art. Oksana’s favorite silhouette is fluffy A-line dresses and, of course, tight-fitting dresses. Although examples that reach the floor also prevail, in the collections you can often find short versions and transformable dresses that are not inferior to the previous ones in elegance and pomp.
Of course, this list can be continued for a long time, there just isn’t enough space. One thing is important - Russian designers are on par with world brands and have long occupied their place of honor in high wedding fashion.
Peter Langner
Before becoming an independent fashion unit, Peter Langer managed to work in the most famous fashion houses - from Lacroix, Laroche, Dior to Ungaro. His atelier is based in Rome, where the best Italian designers and seamstresses work. Now St. Petersburg has 70 boutiques around the world on three continents. In 2005, Peter Langner wedding dresses received the prestigious Bridal Couture Award in New York and the special International Guiseppe Sciacca prize.
Ines di Santo
Ines di Santo is a famous Italian wedding designer, famous for her incredibly feminine, original and figure dresses. Ines di Santo wedding dresses are made in Toronto, where the designer has an atelier. Very often, Ines personally works on dresses to make them even more luxurious and perfect - all to make every bride feel unique!
Marchesa
The cult brand Marchesa, whose shows are always sold out, began its history in 2004 - that’s when designers Georgia Chapman and Keren Craig founded their first atelier.
Dresses from Marchesa are loved by Penelope Cruz and Blake Lively, Jennifer Lopez and Cameron Diaz, Kate Hudson and Halle Berry, Selena Gomez and Rihanna, Miley Cyrus and Emma Watson, Kristen Stewart and Nikki Reed, Sandra Bullock and Eva Longoria.
