Etsy Pick: Florie Mitton Bridal Garters
February 23, 2010 by Danae
It’s hard for us to get too excited about garters, especially bridal ones where it seems like we’ve seen every variation on tulle that a human could imagine. But every now and then, something special comes along and surprises us!
Florie Mitton Bridal Garters
We are delighted to say that Florie Mitton’s vintage-inspired concoctions of beading and lace have perked us right up! The British creator Claire has branched out on her own after working as a designer for the past five years, and now aims to transform the garter from a wedding afterthought into the next must-have accessory.
We’ve got to say, she’s on the right track. Her gorgeous combinations of embroidered tulle, creamy lace and vintage styles are perfect little pieces of fashion, all wrapped up like jewellery in their smart little boxes. The style is akin to the incredibly popular headwear designer ban.do, and both labels capture that old-world glamour and craftsmanship beautifully. Best of all, the prices aren’t bad either – a garter ranges from $29 to $72, and brides can also order a custom garter of their choice.
We will definitely be keeping an eye on this label, and we hope that future collections might pop in some more colours for the non-bridal market, too! Claire is also looking for stockists, so if you are interested in carrying Florie Mitton, you can contact her at floriemitton@googlemail.com.
