Elegant French and Italian fabrics, silks and lace are fashioned into the finest wedding wear by British fashion designer Ritva Westenius. This small shop has been supplying beautiful bespoke wedding dresses from this Connaught Street location, close to Marble Arch for 30 years, moving from their original South Molton Mews shop in the 1970s. Front of house at the family-run business is Chenca Williams, a former principal ballerina with the Royal Ballet, who expertly advises on the most suitable white silk gowns for brides-to-be. A selection of Benjamin Adams shoes are also available in-store. Allow four to six months for a made-to-order wedding dress.
