About the designer
Daughters of Simone
Daughters of Simone, established over a decade ago, disrupts the traditional wedding industry with a commitment to independence and authenticity. Led by designer Brittany Castaños, the brand intertwines narratives of overlooked women with influences from Victorian and Western cultures, creating gowns that embody the free-spirited essence of the 1970s. Luxurious fabrics such as scalloped crochet-laces and French corded laces define their quality, with each design meticulously refined for a flawless fit. Celebrating nostalgia, freedom, and individuality, Daughters of Simone empowers women to embrace their true selves.
Sisters Ash and Brit, founders of Daughters of Simone, crafted their initial collection to challenge conventional bridal norms. Inspired by their mother's 1970s wedding dress and their adventurous journeys through Indonesia and Australia, their gowns reflect a bohemian elegance perfect for the carefree bride. Offering comfort and style, these pieces are ideal for intimate destination weddings or any bride seeking a relaxed fit gown that allows her to dance the night away with ease. Daughters of Simone epitomizes the spirit of the free-spirited bride, inviting women to celebrate their uniqueness with every step down the aisle.
