It’s the year of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, we get an extra long weekend in June to celebrate the event and of course LadyM’s birthday, and it got us thinking about diamonds, sparkles and ultimately wedding season. We already know of two weddings that weekend and it is likely to be a popular time for nuptials.
Olivier Laudus present Statement Bridal Headbands
In perfect timing, Olivier Laudus, a leading online bridal accessory boutique have announced their collaboration with award winning British designers for their Artisan Collection. Statement bridal headbands were very popular in 2011 and stunning handmade headbands make up this collection. Featuring Crystallised Swarovski Elements, the vintage-inspired pieces have been delicately handcrafted, boasting romantic floral designs and soft freshwater pearls, dazzling crystals and beautifully cut diamante stones.
“The Royal Wedding might have had a strong influence in bringing tiaras back into fashion, but 2011 was definitely still the year of the statement bridal headband”. Sangeeta Laudus
Although this range of headbands is particularly comfortable to wear, most pieces can also be set on a hair comb so that only the detailed part shows. Each headband is made to order and can take up to 4 weeks. Prices range between £75 to £190.
About Olivier Laudus
We’ve been following the success on Olivier Laudus for a while now, the company was established in 2004 by husband and wife team Olivier and Sangeeta Laudus. In July 2011 we went to their wedding studio opening night near Bond Street, London which is a great base for their personal consultations.
Olivier (formerly a stylist and model) designs some of the collection and manages the day to day running of the business whistle Sangeeta works in the city as a lawyer, and helps with marketing and business development for the brand. Both Sangeeta and Olivier offer personal one to one consultations to clients and are a fabulous couple who really make sure you get the star treatment every bridal party deserves.
The online bridal boutique offers three fabulous collections. Alongside the Artisan Collection is the Signature Collection, an exclusive collection of wedding accessories including luxury hand-beaded wedding ring cushions and guestbooks designed by Olivier as well as the new bridal jewellery designed exclusively for the brand. In addition, there is a Boutique Collection of handpicked ready-to-wear gorgeous accessories which include stylish bridal bags, pearl and crystal jewellery, princess-style tiaras and vintage-inspired headbands.
