Trend Setting Styles for 2025 by Sassi Holford

Introducing Serenity, by Sassi Holford. Created from the peaceful mindset that Sassi channelled throughout her two-week charity walk for Mind.

Sassi's recent explorations in Milan and Paris have led to the selection of luxurious fabrics that infuse each gown with texture and movement. The designs feature necklines that gracefully balance modesty and seduction, while the silhouettes pay homage to British fashion heritage, reimagined for the modern day. The result is a collection with necklines that appear to dance between modest yet seductive.

The lineage of British fashion is taken into the 21st century with Sassi’s cutting silhouettes that command attention. We take a look at some of these stunning new designs, from the new Serenity collection that will be leading the trends for the upcoming season of new modern brides-to-be!
