Hanifa, a celebrity-favorite design brand based in Washington, D.C., is taking its venture into the world of wedding couture to the next level with its latest collection. The brand's founder, Anifa Mvuemba, will be launching her debut line of bridal gowns at her Oct. 15 show.
The acclaimed designer's first display of bridal gowns will showcase a wide range of ready-to-wear looks, expanding on the already popular dresses that made the Black-owned brand a household name. Hanifa's official Instagram account made the announcement of its new subsidiary line in a shared post.
The founder and 2021 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund recipient shared her excitement for the collection, saying, "This collection represents the culmination of my years of experience in curation, attention to detail and exploration of the theme of love." The show will be held at the Salamander Resort in Middlesburg, Virginia, as part of the Fall Bridal Fashion week, according to Women's Wear Daily.
Before her official dive into the fashion industry, the visionary was already taking custom wedding dress orders for her diverse clientele, staying true to her commitment to inclusivity for all body types. Hanifa Bridal will feature a wide range of sizes adorned with custom features, such as beading and feathers incorporated into the gowns.
In addition to the dresses, Mvuemba hopes to introduce accessories, such as veils, in future drops. This could mean that a bride could walk down the aisle wearing a head-to-toe Hanifa look. For those planning a ceremony a little further down the road, the designer anticipates taking more clients for customized dress options on top of her pre-made assortment.
Upcoming brides eager to indulge in the collection will be able to purchase from the brand's online shop starting Oct.20. Hanifa Bridal is sure to make its mark in the wedding fashion industry, offering something special for every bride and budget.
