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.

Emmelie AblerIt’s the perfect shop for anyone looking for something special for their wedding or another special occasion.
With its focus on wedding, prom and party wear for both men and women, Dream Designs offers you a wonderful experience where you’ll truly feel seen and looked after. The shop was founded in 2016 by Emma Filipsson, who has a background as a seamstress and extensive experience in the wedding industry, and it has quickly established itself as the obvious choice for brides and grooms.
The shop works with well-known suppliers and offers alterations and design updates through its in-house tailoring studio, to ensure that every dress fits perfectly. Dream Designs offers not only dresses but also jewellery and accessories, making it easy to put together a complete outfit all in one place. Dream Designs focuses on making the dress fitting a memorable experience and welcomes everyone, regardless of budget or size. This makes Dream Designs more than just a shop – it’s a destination for the complete experience for life’s special occasions. The shop is also known for attracting customers from all over Sweden, thanks to its high standard of service and commitment to making customers’ dreams come true.
Don’t forget the alterations
We all look different, so there’s hardly a dress that will fit perfectly straight away – so don’t forget that the dress needs to be tailored in shape and length to suit you specifically. Sometimes only a few minor adjustments are needed, whilst in other cases a bit more work is required to make the dress perfect. And something I often remind my customers of is that there are loads of other alterations that can be made. For example, I often alter, add or remove different sleeves and sleeve lengths, as well as adjust necklines at the front and back.
