Badass Basement Frivolity: Embracing Edginess for the Modern Bride

 

Gossamer wings, flyaway fabrics, ecstatic movement, badass vibes, diaphanous designs, frivolity, and a slice of naughty—These words encapsulate and ignite the essence of Nemo Bridal & Couture's latest design collection, the "Basement Collection."

This daring and unconventional range pushes the boundaries of traditional bridal fashion, catering to the edgy bride who dares to be different on her special day.

For over two decades, Nemo Bridal & Couture has been adorning discerning brides from all corners of New Zealand and beyond.

Nestled in the heart of Queenstown, where weddings are a daily occurrence through all four seasons, the store has always been adaptable and responsive to the ever-evolving market and customer needs.

Led by the visionary owner, Trudy Munro, the talented team of professionals collaborates to bring unique and customised garments to life, tailored to each individual's personality, vision, budget, and timeframe.

With each new season, Nemo Bridal & Couture unveils a captivating capsule collection that allows clients to explore and personalise their own unique & distinctive style.

Vintage elements are an integral part of these collections, paying homage to the store's identity and enduring love for all things classic.

In this season's offering, the beloved Tilly skirt takes on a fresh and sassy transformation.

Crafted from a fusion of six different vintage lace borders, it has evolved into a playful dress adorned with a delicate veil and a stylish hairbow, exuding a modern and contemporary flair.

Shorter dresses have been gaining popularity in bridal wear, serving as a fashionable alternative or a second reception look, and we can't help but embrace this exciting trend.

Another short and sassy favourite from this collection is the "Parisdior Mini" dress—an enchanting blend of fun and elegance.

This flirty mini dress features a detachable oversized bow, adding a touch of whimsy to its sophisticated design. Whether it's worn as the main dress or a reception/party outfit, this silky number exudes just the right amount of attitude and spunk. 


As we emerge from the global pandemic, the world has witnessed a shift in attitudes, priorities, and inspirations. Weddings, frocks, parties, and places are redefining themselves with newfound freshness and vitality. It is in this context that Nemo Bridal & Couture's "Basement Collection" flourishes—a playful and audacious range that adds a touch of sass to the bridal fashion landscape.

To capture the essence of this vibrant collection, we teamed up with the talented local photographer, Isabella Garland from Isabella Rubie Photography, alongside two stunning models, Briana & Maria. Together, they beautifully embodied the spirit and attitude we envisioned. The unconventional setting of our underground car park provided the perfect backdrop, infusing the photoshoot with texture, character, and a unique urban edge.

The "Basement Collection" is Nemo’s celebration of the audacious, the unconventional, and the fearless. It invites brides to embrace their unique style, challenge tradition, and make a bold statement on their special day.

Whether you envision yourself as a whimsical fairy or a rebellious queen, Nemo Bridal & Couture's "Basement Collection" has a captivating look that will make you feel like the most empowered and confident version of yourself.
