Being a bridal designer is unlike any other, after all, it is a gown like no other in your lifetime.
The Lucia Josephine team has an expertly trained eye - looking at designs in a way that encapsulates every angle. Harmony, comfort, and visual effects are some components considered when reimagining the bridal savoir-faire to compliment today's bride.
Brought to life by the hands of our specialist team of artisans -any time not spent with our brides - is spent next to our mannequins. Draping, pinning, and stretching fabrics to see how they interact. We look at the curves each material creates and spend hours upon hours meticulously crafting samples. This experience gives us a trained eye.
It is these countless hours of work, that are presented to you in minutes during your intimate and personalised fittings.
The Lucia Josephine bride will follow their bridal design from conception to completion, with every aspect of the process given the utmost attention to detail.
We are proud to be one of few bridal labels with complete control over every step of production, as our pieces are made locally in Brisbane. This ends with a beautifully finished garment, with no alterations or adjustments required.
First, your journey starts with a single private appointment. It is here we uncover your ultimate vision for your special day.
Then, upon design confirmation - your detailed measurements are taken. This is an important step in your journey, as every gown, is made only for you.
Fittings then proceed with no element of craftsmanship spared. We begin with a calico fitting so you can see your design (in calico fabric) in its entirety - before it's cut into your final fabric. Contoured and fitted onto your body, this is an ode to the magic of haute couture.
Finishing with perfection after your series of fabric fittings, we complete your look with a custom veil.
This memorable and intimate journey creates an everlasting experience for every bride-to-be.
Reimagining bridal through a lens of heritage techniques, Lucia Josephine presents White Chocolate. 11 designs crafted as an accumulation of years of dedication, curating the perfect blend of patterns, silhouettes, and fabric to present a distilled range that showcases a wide palette of possibilities to suit a bride who wants to be remembered.
The inspiration for White Chocolate came from a bride herself. During a fitting appointment, one of our brides changed into her gown, feeling the supple fabric on her skin, she turned to her Mum and said, "I feel like I'm wearing white chocolate."
That moment encapsulated the feeling of our design process, which always starts with the fabric. The textural elements of each fabric we work with must feel beautiful, decadent, and luxurious (like the silkiness of the finest chocolate).
Expertly hand-crafted in Australia and hand shaped through custom calico fittings, every time. Lucia Josephine caters to your eye, and body, ending with a finished garment, no alterations required. Indulge in the magic of White Chocolate and create moments that belong only to you.
