BLOOM AUSTRALIA … •☾• … SLOW FASHION FOR RULE BREAKERS
One year ago, Bloom Australia opened its doors in Brisbane’s Newstead, bringing a new form of bridal fashion into the city. Bloom’s owner, Sam, moved to Brisbane from New York and is offering exclusive dresses, separates and accessories to Brisbane brides - a lot of them from designers that Brisbane-based shoppers previously had to chase via Sydney, Canberra {all my brides know Mrs Fray} or internationally. All gowns that you find at Bloom are hand-made in ateliers, by designers who celebrate #slowfashion and care about the environment in their procedures.
At Bloom, Sam’s motto is that bridal rules are meant to be broken.
To welcome Bloom in Brisbane, Lovelenscapes did a little shoot earlier this year featuring gowns by Bo & Luca, Bowie Rae and Mariana Hardwick, Accessories by Jennifer Behr, Hair & Makeup by Leigh McCoy, and the wonderful Isabelle Marcovich as our bride.
Sleek, modern, romantic, bohemian, edgy - we managed to capture quite the range in this Editorial session and we hope you will enjoy browsing through some highlights and looks.
Thank you for inviting us into your beautiful space, Sam, and for letting us share the beginnings of such a wonderful journey. Brisbane needed Bloom and I think I speak on behalf of many brides when I thank you for having the courage to bring something so unique and beautiful into the city.
