Founder and designer, Bianca De Pietro, is a New York native who began designing clothes at a very young age. Further expanding her skills acquired from childhood, De Pietro went on to study fashion design at Philadelphia University, tailoring and eveningwear construction at Italiana in Florence, Italy, and pattern cutting at London’s Central Saint Martins, a constituent college of the University of the Arts London.
In 2021, De Pietro launched Atelier Bianca Sposa, a custom evening and bridalwear experience. Her designs are made to fill the demand for a more customizable approach to weddings—offering brides the ability to choose unique looks for their big day. Ahead, take a look at the newest collection.
Atelier Bianca Sposa 2021
As stated in a press release provided by the brand, "Inspired by the intentionality of Italian design, De Pietro merges high-quality materials, couture sewing techniques, and thoughtful attention to detail. The collection honors tradition with nostalgic touches such as long sleeves and covered buttons, and boasts couture-influenced details such as cosmopolitan capelets, modern riffs on French Chantilly lace, beguiling illusion buildups, and textured fabric manipulations in silk organza and tulle."
