We’ve got some really exciting news to share! We’re about to enter a beautiful new chapter here at Sabina Motasem. From 11 July, all our bridal appointments will be moving to a brand new exclusive bridal home – The Wedding Club in Knightsbridge. We’ll be saying goodbye to Dalston studio bridal fittings, as The Wedding Club, the UK's most fashion-forward bridal boutique becomes our exclusive UK stockist.

Here are some of our favourites, with some ideas of how you can pair them with some of our dresses.

We’re so excited to be donating our fabric waste to FibreLab – a brilliant London-based studio turning tiny fabric scraps into stunning handcrafted paper.

Explore their beautiful products here.

It’s been a little while since we treated our beautiful Dalston bridal studio to something new and sparkly — but the wait is over!

Whether you’re after a sleek and elegant Art Deco look, some pearly romantic touches, or delicate statement florals, there’s something to complete every bridal style.

We're going to be at the The Good Clothes Show, taking place from 30 May to 1 June at the Chelsea Old Town Hall. If you remember The Clothes Show from the 80s, you'll remember how exciting it was to see this event and see the cult fashion tv show with Caryn Franklin and Selena Scott. We're excited to be taking part in this event and bringing along some new pieces.
