House of Gilles returned to New York Bridal Fashion Week with its second bridal collection, introducing a focused expansion on couture construction and material detail. Chloé Mendel Corgan and Gilles Mendel shaped this season around romance and individuality, channeling both through gowns crafted by hand at their newly opened New York atelier.

BRIDAL

Working with double-faced duchess satin, crepe-back satin, and crimped organza, the collection builds volume without excess. The shapes move from soft to sculptural, guided by a clear emphasis on traditional couture methods, moulage, draping, hand-pleating, and tonal finishing. Every gown begins in the atelier, where form develops in dialogue with fabric.

The collection plays with opposites: airiness and structure, softness and precision. One standout piece features hand-pleated ruffles of crimped organza that fall into a full skirt, while French corded lace, painted in cream patinas, frames the bodice. Another look combines filigree lacework with Chantilly and corded techniques, anchored by starched silk flowers that appear pressed into the surface.

The designers shaped each piece as a composition rather than a lookbook entry. Gowns evolve on the body, shaped by movement and light. Nothing feels decorative for its own sake. Even the lightest touch, a layer of lace, a pressed flower, or a sharp hemline, serves structure.

Brides can now step inside the House of Gilles atelier in New York City, where each gown is draped, stitched, and finished under the direction of Gilles Mendel. The process unfolds through direct engagement between the bride and the House, offering custom couture options and full made-to-order services. Pricing begins at $9,000.

The studio works with a team of European-trained artisans who focus on refining shape from the inside out. Construction begins with inner structure and builds outward, ensuring movement, strength, and comfort. The result stays far from fast fashion. Each gown moves at its own pace.

Chloé Mendel Corgan described the new collection as “A love letter – thoughtful, romantic, and modern.” For her, the pieces speak directly to women who favor individuality over ornament. Gilles Mendel echoed this intent, saying, “We’re designing for women who appreciate detail, elegance, and individuality.” Their approach avoids the loud statement. Instead, it leans on process, cut, and restraint. The silhouettes resist decoration for decoration’s sake and rely instead on tailored gesture, deliberate detail, and shape clarity.

This season, House of Gilles introduced a special capsule of bridal shoes in collaboration with Casadei. These designs echo the collection’s material approach. The flowers used on the shoes take inspiration from reflex roses, floral elements shaped by hand to appear fully open. Each petal undergoes staining with ground rose quartz and minerals, which stiffens the silk and gives the surface a powdered, slightly luminous pink tone.

The shoes extend the House’s approach into accessory design. Nothing here feels like a separate element. The form of the shoe follows the same rhythm as the gown, measured, refined, and intentional.

House of Gilles treats the wedding dress as more than a garment. It becomes a record, of the wearer’s taste, body, and sense of presence. Every cut reflects a physical decision. Every finish ties back to the atelier’s pace. As New York Bridal Fashion Week continues to showcase new names and narratives, House of Gilles stands apart by returning to couture technique as its primary tool.
