Shopping for your bridalwear can be both exciting AND confusing. You’ve either got the super high-end South Asian designers like Sabyasachi, Anushree Reddy, or Payal Singhal, and at the other end of the spectrum you’ve got local boutiques and stores selling designer knock-offs or outfits designed by the store owners themselves.
But what if you want something in-between? We’re talking beautifully designed and modern outfits that may not be from the big names that you’ve heard of, but are gorgeous, attainable, and don’t require a trip to India for you to get them. Well, you’re in luck! Here are 4 popular Canadian designers below who fit that mold to a T.
Zardozi Couture
Zardozi Couture’s designs are ethereal, elegant, and available in both traditional and fashion-forward styles. That feather trend that you’ll see all over brides in 2020? Zardozi Couture brides were wearing ‘em first. And the best part is that you can get one-of-a-kind customized couture, meaning that you won’t stumble across a lookalike or knock-off on the ‘Gram. Zardozi Couture is based in Brampton, Ontario and you can checkout their Instagram page for loads of inspiration and lehnga eye-candy.

Harkiran Basra

Every custom bridal piece pictured on her Instagram page is as gorgeous and unique as the last. And although we never recommend that you wait super close to your wedding to get your outfits made, she has helped brides in a bind in the past – we’re talking 6 weeks to wedding day. That kind of customer service plus the amazing outfits? Sold!

Mani Jassal
If you’re a bride who likes to push the limits and is on the hunt for outfits that are fashion forward and bold, then Mani Jassal is for you. Think bustier, deep V-cut, and one shoulder blouses, inspired uses of floral prints, and monochromatic outfits that manage to be both simple and intricate (and sexy) at the same time. She is also the only designer in our list who has a storefront (Toronto).
