Christopher Esber Bridal: The Wedding Dresses, White Gowns and How They Fit

Yes, Christopher Esber makes wedding dresses. The Sydney label released its first full bridal collection, 20 pieces, in February 2025, following a seven-piece bridal capsule made exclusively for Net-a-Porter in 2023. Key gowns include the Veiled Corset Dress, the Vapour Overlay Silk Gown and the Veiled Tulle Overlay Gown, on Australian sizing that matches UK sizing.

Here are the gowns, the white dresses that work for a civil ceremony and a second look, and how they fit. Shop them in the Christopher Esber collection.

White dresses for a civil ceremony and a second look

How the bridal gowns fit

The gowns are on Australian sizing, which matches UK sizing. The brand lists the Vapour Overlay Silk Gown as true to size, and its bridal models are around 179cm to 180cm and wear an AU 8. The corseted Veiled Corset Dress has inbuilt boning, so the bust and waist are the measurements to match; a skilled alterations service can take in a bodice more easily than let it out. See the Christopher Esber size guide.

Shoes and bags for brides

Under a long gown, the Minette Flat with its hand-applied glass crystals is a comfortable choice for a long day. For height, the Memento Charm Flip Flop Heel, and for a clutch, the Buki Clutch. See our Christopher Esber shoes guide.

A note for wedding guests

The white and ivory pieces belong to the bride. Guests should look at the label’s colour gowns instead; our Christopher Esber dresses guide sorts them by colour.
