From glorious gowns and fabulous honeymoon loungewear to bespoke confetti, here are ten things we absolutely love this summer
Floral delight
We absolutely love Sassi Holford’s 2017 collection. As you would expect of this leading British designer, it features timeless wedding gowns with fabulous cut and fabrics and impeccable attention to detail. But we also love the fact that there are a few surprises in the mix for 2017, such as this lovely flower-decorated gown that is bang on trend and would be just perfect for a high-summer wedding. sassiholford.com
Lounge lizard
Violet & Wren’s fabulous Face To The Sun collection of loungewear oozes glamour – just perfect for lazy honeymoon days. All the pieces in the collection are made of fine materials, such as silk, and will help you to travel light because they are smart enough to see you from poolside to bar or restaurant. violetandwren.co.uk
Star turn
Beverly Hills-based jeweller Martin Katz makes pieces inspired by nature and featuring exquisite combinations of precious stones. This fabulous starfish brooch is set with diamonds, pink sapphires and a luminous Tahitan pearl. Matching clip-on earrings are available. £65,000; martinkatz.com
Flower burst
Wedding and event florist Laura Kuy creates knockout arrangements and has supplied flowers to both Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Paris Hilton. As with all her work, this bridal bouquet is a blend of rich colour and texture with perfect romantic blooms. laurakuy.com
What a carry on
Treat yourself to the ultimate luxury travel bag with one of Ethan K’s designs. Created in sumptuous leathers and skins, their colours range from bold and juicy shades to soft neutrals. You’ll find a fabulous selection in Harrods or contact him to commission a style to match your honeymoon travel outfit. ethan-k.com
Something blue
These Mayfair Baby Blue stilettos by Yull are just the colour pop you need to carry you up the aisle – and glam enough to do double duty for honeymoon. Yull is a very London brand, founded by Sarah Watkinson-Yull while she was still at university. Sarah received Prince’s Trust funding to pursue her love affair with high heels in glam colourways and proudly manufactures her company’s shoes in the UK. £195; yull.co.uk
Travelling light
Dominican-born Miguelina is on a mission to simplify our vacation packing. Elegant and simple pieces in plain neutral and bold colours take you straight from beach to bar and back – just what you need to ensure you travel light without compromising on style. You will find her collection at Net-a-Porter. net-a-porter.com
