The Designer:
With over three decades under her belt designing bridal and evening wear, Ines Di Santo’s designs are “fueled by the eternal fantasy of the ‘perfect’ wedding gown,” says the brand. “An unapologetic romantic, Ines has built her namesake brand by infusing every wedding gown with the essence of her passion for beauty, love, and desire.”
Though you can find her gowns globally, each design is a journey back to Di Santos’ own roots. “Inspired by her Italian heritage and upbringing in Buenos Aires, Ines connected to the romance of the art world as a young woman and went on to study fine art and design in Argentina and Italy,” the brand explains to BRIDES. “This connection laid the foundation for her expression as a fashion designer. Using the gestures of fine art as a catalyst, she brought her art, Ines Di Santo bridal, to life in glamorous, feminine glory.”
The Ines Di Santo Bride:
According to the designer, “Ines Di Santo brides follow their heart and are in-tune with their limitless feminine energy.” To master the art of designing gowns that looks glamorous but still feel natural, Ines Di Santo takes a cue from their brides, who they describe as “modern day goddesses in their own right and are most deserving in feeling their most beautiful self on their special day. My creations are a pure reflection of them.”
