It’s official, Chantal Mallett has been creating one of a kind, couture bridal gowns for clients for 20 years & to celebrate we have undergone a rebrand & relaunched the website.

But that’s not all, we also collaborated with some very talented creatives, also based around London, to create a new set of images for the relaunch & we’re sharing some of the shot’s not found elsewhere on the website here, along with the ‘behind the shoot’ story.


 

Chantal Mallett - Couture Bridal Gowns

Enchanté – Chantal Mallett Bridal Couture

Have you ever had one of those days when you had something big happening, that needed all of your energy & attention but the day was such enormous fun & full of laughter & even when you get home & it’s time to go to bed, you can’t stop talking about it? Well, much like a wedding day, our day spent at Danesfield House, Hotel & Spa in Marlow was one of those days!

Driving through the Berkshire countryside at dawn in late February with the first hints of sunshine teasing us, my photographer Sanshine Photography & I, having motorway-ed it most of the way, had driven the last few miles to Danesfield House through pretty market towns & country roads before turning into their gateway.

There’s something rather exciting about arriving at a shoot, to a venue you have only seen in photographs. Number one, you are rather relieved that sat nav has found this quietly, inconspicuous entry to Wonderland & two, there is that childlike feeling of wonderment & expectation as you follow the tree lined drive to the front door & see another English jewel rising majestically in front of you.

My Fair Lady Styled Shoot

Last Autumn Sanshine Photography, Stylist Miss Munro & I put out heads together & making the best of the last of the good weather, pulled together a quick styled shoot,

The inspiration was a pink gown that had been created for Emily Soto to shoot, a month or so earlier; a gown that was in part inspired by Beaton’s costumes in My Fair Lady.

We had in mind a beautiful outdoor location & invited Miriam Faith Flowers, Cutture, Judit Hellebrandt Cake Company to collaborate with us on an apricot, pink & ivory bridal themed shoot, inspired by the film.

For those who don’t know the film, it is set in Edwardian London & stars the beautiful Audrey Hepburn. The entire film oozes style & elegance & it’s the look we set out to achieve with the shoot.

Throwing the atelier into the spirit, we up-scaled an ivory parasol into a sugar pink tulle confection complete with Eliza Doolittle monogram & created a modern take on the hats worn in the famous race scene. This, along with our My Fair Emily gown & fabulous hair & make-up from Halimah of H Beauty was the first of two looks.

The table set up, which actually utilised a stone balustrade, was inspired by Eliza’s tea with Mrs Pickering near the end of the film.

For the second bridal look, inspired by Eliza’s visit to the ball, Alexa wore our pink & gold opera cape & Empire tiara with a Katya Katya ivory lace gown.

We were extremely fortunate with the weather & in post, Sanshine Photography, added a touch of old Hollywood magic to the finished images which really set the tone we had set out to achieve.
