About the brand

Halfpenny London is a luxury British bridal fashion brand founded by Kate Halfpenny in 2005. Originally starting as a bespoke bridal dress business, the brand quickly gained recognition through Kate's reputation for styling world-renowned celebrities including Cate Blanchett, Kate Moss, and Rhianna. Kate, a Central St Martins textile graduate and former celebrity stylist with nearly 20 years of experience, brings a contemporary and refreshing approach to bridal wear that appeals to fashion-conscious, style-savvy women seeking to express their individuality. The brand is renowned for its versatile collections featuring interchangeable separates that allow brides to create unique, personalized looks. Each piece is designed and handmade in London using the finest silks and laces sourced from Italy and France. Halfpenny London operates under the empowering mantra 'be the bride you want to be,' offering everything from elegant ballgowns to chic trouser suits. The brand is also committed to sustainability, creating made-to-order pieces and repurposing fabric offcuts to minimize waste.

Best British-made bridalwear. Kate Halfpenny founded her namesake label in 2005 with the intent to create bespoke bridal via private appointment; she was able to use word-of-mouth recommendations in lieu of marketing, since she'd already styled the likes of Cate Blanchett, Emilia Fox, Kate Moss and Rihanna. Luckily, Halfpenny London has since opened its doors to the public – but every wedding gown is designed and handmade within the UK.

Showcasing opposing fabrics that in collaboration with one another evoke an unexpected beauty like no other. Organza frills intruding sleek lines curating contrast yet remaining in balance, offering a surprising compatibility and harmony between the juxtaposing fabrics.

When I tried the top and skirt combination at Halfpenny, I knew the search was over as I felt so comfortable and unpretentious in it. I wasn't even going to try it as I'd decided against a two-piece, but I'm so glad they suggested I try it on in the boutique.

It was such a great experience from start to finish. Megan my stylist was so kind and made me feel like a million dollars in every dress I tried. She was very good at listening to what I liked or disliked about everyone and from that making suggestions about what to try on next.

Love My Dress

The shape suited my body and I loved that it was a little different to a lot of dresses that are out there. The Maple skirt has the most beautiful embroidery and was so classy.

My dress fittings were also a dream. Summer, my seamstress, was the nicest, calmest person and just made me feel so comfortable at each one.

The most important thing to remember is the key to finding your perfect wedding outfit is choosing a style that makes you feel like the very best version of yourself and that doesn't necessarily have to be a dress... Feeling bridal has nothing to do with a particular style of dress and everything to do with the emotion wrapped up in that garment, so be yourself, whether that's in a ballgown, jumpsuit or mini dress.
