Maud tells us, "We are currently working on a small collection for 2021 and the theme is Royal Fantasy where we take royal elements from dresses and incorporate them in a modern way - think bell sleeves, puff sleeves, high necklines and large, voluminous skirts." She adds, "My trend predictions for bridal dresses in 2021 is that we will see pretty pastel colours a nd earthy tones being used. Baby pinks, blues and yellows will b e seen more as well as terracotta tones and even coral. These m ay be subtly incorporated into dress linings or accentuated with a ccessories, for example, a large bouquet of dried herbs styled with earthy, dark flowers."
