Though a couple of inches of snow can often bring the entire country grinding to a halt, we Brits are actually quite a hardy bunch when it comes to braving cold weather. This, combined with the fact that nothing can stand in the way of true love, means that there is no shortage of couples getting hitched during the months of winter and early spring.
That said, no winter bride wants to look frostbitten in her wedding photos! That means that a winter wedding gown has to serve the dual function of adding warmth while still looking super-glamorous: is there a bridal fabric that fits the bill? There certainly is, and though it may not be everybody's first though when it comes to wedding outfit material, faux fur is actually perfect.
Bridal Fabrics stock an exquisite range of faux fur, allowing designers to create rich, regal and luxurious wedding wear without any of the cruelty involved with sourcing real fur. The range includes:
Saluki Faux Fur
With a long, deep and luxuriant pile, Saluki Faux Fur is available in the classic bridal colours of white and ivory though more fashion-forward designers will delight in the playful pink version.
Husky Faux Fur
Husky has a superbly soft handle that makes it ideal for creating wedding wear that is worn directly against the skin, such as a muff or a faux fur jacket. Choose from ivory, pink or beige.
Ermine Faux Fur
Practically indistinguishable from the real thing, Ermine synthetic fur is available in ivory and is our most cost-effective offering of this wonderful wedding fabric. Perfect for creating that most attractive of winter wedding wear: the bridal shrug.
Borzois Faux Fur
This truly magnificent faux fur fabric is a premium choice with its delightful drape and superlatively soft handle. Exclusively available in ivory, Borzois has to be seen (and touched) to be believed.
