Grace Loves Lace shakes up manufacturing style to meet demand
By Imogen Bailey | 26 May 2021
According to BusinessWire data, 47% of 2020 couples moved their entire wedding or reception to 2021 or beyond, so Grace Loves Lace is anticipating a big upswing in demand this year.
To prepare for this rush, founder and creative director Megan Ziems developed a collection of three gowns available as a ready-to-wear capsule and at a lower price point.
The Disco Daydream collection is dispatched within three days of the order being placed, ensuring brides access to the fastest and easiest way to be bride-ready. With the easing of restrictions around Australia and America in particular, we anticipated a peak in nuptials and saw an opportunity to add to our existing ready-to-wear offering, Ziems said.
Grace Loves Lace challenges unethical, tricky greenwashing

The six-piece range is manufactured onshore using eco-friendly material made from 7.6 recycled plastic bottles per metre.
The resulting collection is made from 97% recycled materials and is the brand s first foray into sustainable fabrics, founder Megan Ziems said. As a brand, we never stop looking for ways in which we can do better. We have always manufactured in Australia – so naturally the next step for us is innovating our fabrics, packaging and operations so that we can be really proud of how we function as a business. In a world where ethical manufacturing is being talked about a lot, there is so much unethical, tricky greenwashing going on by brands who mass-produce.

Christmas is the most popular time for people to propose, and summer, naturally, the most popular time to have a wedding.
Which, by logic, would make this the most likely time for one of your newly-engaged BFFs to ask you to be her bridesmaid.
It can be a moment of mixed emotions.
Sure, the overriding one is of elation and honour, but if we are truly honest, the nightmares soon set in. Will you have to wear mint green? Will it be strapless? Will ten of you be forced into a one-size-fits-all dress?
