Designer Alexandra Pijut’s Wedding Inspired Her New Bridal and Demi-couture Collections

Last year, New York demi-couture and bridal designer Alexandra Pijut took on the task of designing 15 looks for her own spring 2025 wedding weekend, including multiple ones for herself and striking gowns for her mother, grandmother and bridesmaids.

This week, Pijut has released her latest spring 2026 of made-to-order bridal and demi-couture collections, which allow customers to buy those exact looks — and a few new dresses — from Pijut’s personal wedding designs. The assortment, priced $1,950 to $7,150 for demi-couture and $2,650 to $12,550 for bridal, is currently available for purchase via Over the Moon, and on Monday will also be available on Pijut’s e-commerce website.

In an interview with WWD, Pijut described her process for designing her wedding fashions-turned-spring 2026 collections as a different process than her prior occasionwear lineups. Rather than diving into a concept and building out a theme, each decision was made through a personal lens.

“There’s a lot for everyone to choose from in this collection. There’s a lot of variety in fabrications such as chiffon, taffeta, linen, satin face organza and more. Usually when I’m developing a collection, there are multiple end uses for the client, be it a gala, wedding, party. Here, I had to envision them all in the same room,” she explained. “I wanted to make sure each piece was special, and I’m so excited to see brides make the designs their own.”

For instance, her color story of natural greens and unexpected shades of purple and rich, textural designs worked well with her lush southern Georgia venue. And her variety of demi-couture silhouettes — ranging from more fluid to slightly structured — were designed to accentuate each of her bridesmaids’ figures and personal style preferences, as seen through the spliced floral, multicolored linen Paige dress, the ethereal Liv gown with matching cape or the drop-waist floral taffeta Nicolette dress. In addition, both collections were named after “Le Cygne” by Camille Saint-Saëns, which Pijut walked down the aisle to in a custom-embroidered, lace-like regal gown, to name a few of the many special details imbued throughout the collections.

Alongside her personal, ornate bridal styles — the embellished Selina corset with tulle Odette skirt and adorable feathered Eliza gown — Pijut rounded out her eight-piece bridal collection with a few white renditions of her demi-couture offerings, like the satin face organza Grayal gown, and debut bucket handbags, priced $1,450 to $1,650.
