Vision and value
Not only do you want to look your best, but you’ll also want your big day
to reflect your own unique style and personality. Ihu set up
I.Kollection
after hunting high and low for clothes for her bridal party and finding
nothing that inspired her on the high street.
‘I looked everywhere for bridesmaid dresses that fitted my colour scheme but
could not find anything,’ she says. ‘The ones I found that were remotely of
acceptable quality were horrendously expensive. Luckily I knew a few good
tailors and was a bit of a dab hand at designing my own clothes, so I went to
work designing everything for the bridal party myself and getting them
custommade.’ Seven years on, Ihu offers
a bespoke service from dresses to
matching jewellery and will work with
you to realise your ideas, starting with a
free consultation.
