The Evolution of Bridal Gowns: From Historical Origins to Nadia Manjarrez’s Vision for 2025

In her Fall 2025 bridal collection, designer Nadia Manjarrez masterfully blends the dreamlike essence of painter Guillermo Lorca’s surreal works with a modern bride’s desire for both tradition and innovation. Bold choices, like a stunning seafoam green ballgown, challenge conventional bridal norms while celebrating personal expression. Manjarrez’s commitment to craftsmanship, with corsets and structured silhouettes that balance timeless elegance with contemporary trends, is evident throughout. Her connection to nature, seen in hand-drawn florals and 3D elements, adds an emotional depth to each piece. Rooted in her Mexican heritage and the empowerment of local female artisans, Manjarrez’s designs reflect not only her vision but a collaborative, socially impactful ethos.
