Meet Louie, Kitty & Ping

TH&TH Bridesmaids is the brainchild of three best friends who have been inseparable for over twenty two years. Since they met at Nottingham Trent University, they have been through all of life's ups and downs together, including their weddings, which is where the idea for TH&TH Bridesmaids came about.

Building Our Brand

From the moment founders, Louie, Kitty & Ping met on the first day of their fashion design degree, they knew they wanted to create their own brand. After graduating, they each spent years within the fashion industry, honing their craft in their specialist areas of design, production and commerce.

When Louie was planning her wedding in 2014, struggling to find elegant bridesmaid dresses for her big day, she called upon her best friends to help create the dresses of wedding dreams. The trio went to work sourcing intricate coloured laces and sketching a myriad of designs until the final creations were selected and came to life on Louie's big day. After a bridal magazine got hold of her images after seeing them on social media and asked 'which brand made these incredible bridesmaid dresses', TH&TH was born.

Founding the company with a small pot of savings in the midst of their maternity leave they have organically grown TH&TH and navigated their way to become one of the leading bridesmaids’ brands in the U.K.

TH&TH specialises in premium dresses at an accessible price point. Working with suppliers that they have known for over a decade, their collections are developed and produced by a trusted team of specialists with a passion for quality, classical construction techniques and a focus on traditional bridal fabrics such as tulle, chiffon and crepe in pretty pastels and luxurious jewel tones. The high quality of the fabric and the make up of each dress ensures that it can be worn time and time again to different occasions, a key message of the brand is to eliminate the idea that bridal wear can only be worn on a wedding day.

Our Ethos

Social Impact

Our team works hard to ensure we are creating a brand that is constantly in conversation with the world around us. Respecting the people who support our growth and the environment in which we work

OUR CULTURE

TH&TH is an abbreviation for To Have & To Hold, we create beautiful dresses that live beyond the wedding day. Creations you will have and hold forever.

We believe in products and experiences that deliver joy and happiness. Shopping for bridal wear for yourself and your friends should be easy, fuss free and full of delight.

OUR RAW MATERIALS

To create beautiful, ethereal looks TH&TH use polyester for most dresses. We have been trying to source recycled polyester but this sadly is out of reach for tiny brands like us who only produce small runs, as the minimum order quantities are huge. This is something we are calling for each season with the fabric mills that supply recycled options. We don’t think it is fair for only the larger brands to monopolise these fabrics so will continue on our mission to source recycled options.

OUR DESIGN

TH&TH design all of our dresses from scratch, Kitty & Ping are the creative design force behind the brand and work hand in hand with their incredible manufacturing team in Hong Kong and China. We have recently introduced advanced 3D technology into our design processes, building a more sustainale product by reducing the amount of physical samples we make and wastage. Collaboratively working digitally where we can and apply 3D garment simulation and virtual fittings.

OUR MANUFACTURING

TH&TH are proud to partner with our Chinese manufacturer. Our Co Founder Ping has worked with our production team for over 15 years and has built up strong relationship. We are so thankful to have found a production team that are like a second family. When we started our own line we knew they were the only ones.

TH&TH visit their production team often and love bringing the creative and technical together to form their collections.

OUR FOOTPRINT

Every season TH&TH are striving towards a more sustainable business. We do not mass produce so there is always a fine balance of price vs offsetting but we do our best to ensure we are creating a brand that is constantly in conversation with the world around us. We recycle all of our waste where possible and can now proudly say we now solely ship all of our production by sea. We are slowly removing all single use non recyclable plastic from our supply chain too. We are committed to do better.
