ISSUE FW’26
In our new FW’26 issue, we take you to the south of France and to Renée and Jan’s wedding, which was a celebration of love, friendship and style. We also sit down with Louis Abel founder Jimmy Loutfi for an in-depth interview about how his own wedding rings marked the start of a new chapter in fine jewellery, and look ahead to New York Bridal Fashion Week for the silhouettes, details and ideas that will set the tone for the coming season.

Bespoke wedding dresses – creativity and beauty
Today, I’m stepping into the enchanting world of bespoke wedding dresses as I visit Eva-Lena and Anette at their studio, Damskräddare Andersson & Lidström. Situated on the beautiful island of Ekerö just outside Stockholm, this is the place where brides’ dreams come true. With a second studio in Västerås, their masterpieces of craftsmanship reach across the whole country.
Once inside, I’m greeted by an atmosphere brimming with creativity and beauty. Mannequins are adorned with fairy-tale dresses, whilst a cutting table stands ready to transform fabric into dreams. In another room, I find sewing machines and pressing tables, where every stitch and every pleat is meticulously crafted to bring each bride’s unique vision to life.
It is here, in front of the large mirror on the wall, that the magic truly happens when the bride tries on her bespoke creation for the first time. Every detail, from the silhouette to the lace, is perfected to enchant and enhance the bride’s natural beauty.
But it’s not just bespoke dresses that await their future owners. A stunning collection hangs neatly in a row, ready to capture the hearts of future brides. This collection will soon be available from Elin and Frida at Bröllopslandet, just outside Uppsala, spreading even more joy and beauty across the country.
From the very first sketch to that magical moment on the wedding day, Damskräddare Andersson & Lidström is a symbol of passion, precision and personality. Every dress is not just a garment – it is a story, a dream come true. So join me on this journey into the heart of Swedish tailoring and discover the path to your very own dream dress.
