For a more understated bridal look, the Arizona two-piece is an exquisite bias slip dress with a floor length coat that has a distinctly 1930s glamourous feel, echoing an age of Hollywood screen sirens. Created by Alice Temperley MBE for the model Arizona Muse on her wedding day, this outfit is elegant and refined, for a bride who is looking for something a little different. The Pandora dress, cut in the same crepe backed satin as the Arizona two piece is cut to emphasise and elongate the body; the polished glamour of a 1930s screen siren inspired this statuesque gown.

Finally, for more tailored options, the Rose Jumpsuit and Garance dress are perfect for city weddings. The Rose Jumpsuit is created in an exquisite French vintage double scallop lace, with delicate scallop detailing framing the halter neckline and can be worn with the Arizona coat for a contemporary, stylish wedding. While the Garance dress, an elegant floor length wrap coat dress is based on an iconic Temperley style from the designer’s archives.

‘Brides are looking for a new intimacy in design. One which reflects their personalities and their desire for romance and escapism, in a time of change and upheaval. The fantasy of a wedding day which is truly personal and intimate, and a dress which reflects this’ –

Alice Temperley MBE, Founder & Designer
