Martina Liana and Kleinfeld Bridal debuted their first exclusive collection September 10 with an intimate runway presentation at Kleinfeld’s New York City salon.
The Martina Liana for Kleinfeld collection features 12 gowns designed specifically for the Kleinfeld bride. Priced from $4,000 to $12,000, each gown is fully customizable and incorporates exclusive fabrics, hand-applied details, and couture-inspired finishes.
The presentation was the first public look at the collection, with Essense of Australia's Co-Owner and Chief Creative Officer Martine Harris in attendance to discuss the partnership, the design process, and the craftsmanship behind the gowns.
A creative partnership between Harris, also Martina Liana' head designer; Dorothy Silver, Director of Merchandising at Kleinfeld Bridal; and Caitlin Arigoni, Assistant Buyer at Kleinfeld Bridal, the collection draws on years of working together, with the three closely involved throughout the process, from identifying what they felt was missing in the market to reviewing sketches, refining fabrics and details, and shaping each gown as it came to life.
“This collaboration gave me the freedom to expand Martina Liana’s signature aesthetic through the lens of the modern Kleinfeld bride,” said Harris.
“Dorothy, Caitlin, and I looked at every gown through a more fashion-forward lens — pushing proportion, developing exclusive fabrics and introducing hand-applied details that make each piece feel truly special. There’s a sense of luxury in the collection that comes not from excess, but from the thought, craftsmanship and individuality behind every design. It feels like a new expression of Martina Liana, created specifically for the Kleinfeld bride.”
“Our stylists are absolutely loving the new collection, and so are our brides,” said Silver. “We couldn’t be more excited to see our brides and staff fall in love with these gowns.”
The collection is available exclusively at Kleinfeld Bridal.
