  • Bloom is VARCA's exclusive Australian stockist so our Newstead, Brisbane studio is the only place in the country you can try these gowns on. We carry an extensive edit of their collections and love introducing brides to VARCA, particularly those who've been struggling to find something that feels fashion-forward rather than traditionally bridal.

  • The bride with a point of view. VARCA is for the woman who knows her own style, isn't afraid to be a bit bold and wants a gown that feels like an extension of who she is rather than a costume she's wearing for a day. The design language is sophisticated and intentional with exposed corset backs, dramatic silhouettes, striking fabrications. If your mood board is more editorial than traditional, VARCA should absolutely be on your try-on list.

  • The collection at Bloom ranges from $7,950 to $14,990. The fabrications are exceptional - Italian satin, Japanese tissue taffeta, corded Chantilly lace - and the construction is genuinely considered. For this level of design and quality, we think the pricing is unreal!

  • Eight to ten months. We recommend planning to this timeline wherever possible but if you're working to a shorter window, reach out!

  • The current edit includes Luna - an absolute show-stopper, Satine (a strapless Italian satin ball gown with a draped bodice and basque waist), Jenny, Saundra (a draped Japanese tissue taffeta ballgown with exposed corset back) and the Casper separates in corded Chantilly lace. Every style has something that makes you look twice.

  • VARCA works in a considered colour palette - many styles are offered in additional colourways and patterns depending on the season. The best way to see what's available in your preferred colour is to come in and see the samples in person, or reach out to us ahead of your appointment and we can advise.

  • Not at all and this is a conversation we often have in the studio! The exposed corset back is actually incredibly practical as well as beautiful and we find brides that were unsure love it so much more once they've tried the gowns on. Still unsure? We can cover the back, in the same fabric as your gown, for a small customisation fee! The VARCA corsets are so exceptionally well made and the technique used means they look just as beautiful on as they do in editorials. Come in and we'll show you.
