Inside the Making of Celia Kritharioti's Couture Wedding Gowns

At the haute couture level, what truly goes into crafting garments that demand more time and precision than any other runway piece—often requiring hundreds of hours to complete? Thanks to co-founders Cecilia Dean and James Kaliardos, along with a filmmaker, we are given an intimate glimpse into Kritharioti's process as she applies the final details to one of the standout shows of Paris Couture Week. Shot in the moments leading up to her spectacular event at the Ritz, Kritharioti invites viewers into her world, showcasing a team of seamstresses stitching nearly every element by hand, a few models (including one), and some substantial machinery.
