Press Release:
Luxury bridal brand Charlotte Mills announces the launch of its most considered collection to date, introducing a newly elevated bridal dress collection alongside the brand’s first-ever veil collection, both launching on 12 February.
Designed intentionally with real brides at the heart of every decision, the collection was shaped through direct feedback from Charlotte Mills’ bridal community, including focus groups of past, present and future brides. Every piece has been refined, adjusted and perfected based on how women want to feel on their wedding day - confident, supported and truly themselves.
A Natural Next Chapter: Introducing Veils
For the first time, Charlotte Mills expands beyond footwear and dresses into bridal veils - a category that felt like a natural evolution for the brand.
“Introducing veils felt like a natural next step for Charlotte Mills. Just like shoes, they are often kept and passed down through generations, which makes them incredibly sentimental pieces. I wanted to create veils that feel timeless and elegant, and that become part of a bride’s story long after the wedding day,” says founder and designer Charlotte Mills.
Each veil has been designed to feel classic, elegant and enduring, created to complement a wide range of bridal looks rather than follow fleeting trends. Thoughtfully crafted, the veils are intended not just for the wedding day itself, but as heirloom pieces that hold meaning long after the moment has passed.
“For me, a veil is such a powerful finishing touch. It connects you to so many brides who have stood in that same moment before you,” Charlotte adds.
An Elevated, Bride-Led Dress Collection
Launching alongside the veils is Charlotte Mills’ newly elevated dress collection, crafted with true bridal construction and traditional techniques.
“This year we’ve really elevated our dress collection, and I’m so proud of how special it feels. Every piece is made by hand in a traditional bridal atelier, with real bridal construction like corsetry, boning, cup support and adjustability, so it gives you that beautiful shape and really cinches you in at the waist,” says Charlotte.
Designed for modern brides and the many moments surrounding the wedding, the collection includes versatile separates intended for civil ceremonies, second looks, engagement parties, rehearsal dinners and celebrations beyond the aisle.
What makes this collection particularly special is its collaborative design process.
“This collection was shaped by real women. Past brides, present brides and future brides. We shared the first designs with our community, listened to their feedback, and refined every detail from there,” Charlotte explains.
The result is a collection that feels both elevated and meaningful, balancing craftsmanship, structure and wearability — with pieces designed to be restyled and worn again long after the wedding day.
“I especially love that the pieces are separates and can be worn again after the day itself. Being able to re-style a corset top or skirt and bring back those amazing memories feels really important to me,” she adds.
Launch Details
The new dress collection and first-ever veil collection will launch online at charlottemills.com on 12 February.
