Just minutes before the show begins, excitement reigns backstage. Between racks overflowing with lace and mirrors surrounded by light, makeup artists and hairstylists work with precision, while the workshop's seamstresses work on final adjustments. "It's all about the details," exclaims our artistic director Lucrèce Falcoz, repositioning a sheer tulle veil. Each model embodies a unique vision of romanticism: mermaid silhouette, embroidered bodice, spectacular train. The wedding dresses are truly exceptional pieces; nothing is left to chance.

In the hushed backstage of the show, the tumult is gentle, almost choreographed. Between bursts of stifled laughter, the scent of hairspray, and the rustling of silk, the wedding dresses come to life, carried by muses with ethereal gait. The models are already mentally parading. Some close their eyes to refocus, others exchange knowing glances, somewhere between nervousness and excitement. We whisper, we smile, we already dream of the moment when the lights will go out, then come back on the catwalk. The backstage of a wedding dress show is that suspended moment where fashion transforms into poetry.

Then comes the starting gun. Silence falls for a moment, and the magic begins. While the audience discovers a collection dedicated to elegance and emotion, backstage, everyone holds their breath. The veil is delicately lifted on this new collection, and the applause of the enthusiastic audience is heartfelt.
