Reem Acra’s A/W23 Bridal Collection, Sweet Dreems, Is Just As Heavenly As You Would Expect…

Reem Acra’s A/W23 bridal collection, Sweet Dreems, brings exuberant femininity to the aisle in the most whimsical way. We’re in love, says Editor Nina Catt

Since launching her eponymous label in 1997, Reem Acra’s mission is crystal clear; to create jaw-dropping gowns that make breathtakingly dramatic entrances – a talent that comes as second nature to the Beirut-born designer. The latest collection, entitled Sweet Dreems, is a hopelessly romantic example of that key aesthetic and effortlessly captures the creative’s impeccable eye for detail.

Telling sartorial stories through timeless styles, the collection is a heady mix of whimsical silhouettes that lend themselves to modern fairy-tale moments, each underscored with the house’s signature cinched-waist and flattering A-line structure that moves to its own rhythm.

Highlighted by attention-grabbing necklines, delicate lace, intricate beadwork and dramatic ruffles, each carefully considered element creates a true showstopper – ultimately paying tribute to the bride dreaming of her princess moment.

When Annie Lennox sang “Sweet dreams are made of this,” she must have had these fanciful gowns cascading through her mind.
