ONE TEAM, ONE DREAM
Marylise is a Belgian family business that has specialized for decades in the design and production of high-quality wedding dresses including a great fit. The mission of Marylise is to inspire brides worldwide and to help provide them with an unforgettable day.
At Marylise our daily goal is to make unique wedding dresses that match our bridesâ once in a lifetime experience. To ensure we remain trendsetters, weâve incorporated a creative laboratory within our design department. Itâs the place where all the creative magic happens! Working with a team of designers worldwide, each with different backgrounds and personalities pays off. Each year Marylise shifts the creative boundaries of bridal fashion.
The brand is part of the Marylise and Rembo Fashion Group. Starting as a hat shop in 1926, and subsequently evolved into a wholesale bridal accessories company with its own small bridal collection, it then expanded to the company that we know today; a respectable family company and the driving force behind the three Belgian bridal brands Marylise, Rembo Styling and Carta Branca.
FULLY-FLEDGED HANDMADE BRIDAL FASHION
The starting point for our designers is the bride of today : a dynamic, fashionable young woman who knows what she wants. Her bridal gown must match her wishes and her personality. Bridal fashion should be fully-fledged fashion.
Thatâs why we opt for innovation every year. As a trendsetter weâre ready to take risks. Thatâs how we continue to surprise brides with creations that have never been seen before.
Marylise is beautiful in its simplicity. The dresses have a perfect cut and are made in refined lace and noble fabrics such as chiffon and crepe. In terms of models, we see classics such as close-fitting dresses or a dress with a lace top and a circle skirt. By manufacturing them in trendy materials, it looks very contemporary.

Sarah Josis
Sarah JosisMore Info
Sarah Josis studied fashion design and journalism in Brussels, her home town. After a post-masterâs degree at S Mode in Paris, the young designer started working for major fashion houses such as Burberry and Joseph. It was only natural that she wanted to start her own business in Brussels.
In a desire to keep a line in phase with her time and her creative desire, the designer has developed a line for weddings, minimal and timeless.
WOMEN OF CHARACTERHer latest collection is anchored in an era where the modern woman combines strength and softness. From an early age, Sarah Josis has always been surrounded by women of character who have inspired her creative evolution. Seeing her grandmother elegantly wear a jacket with a clean cut, masculine and almost committed to her time, was the reason for this collection launched from its centerpiece, the masculine-feminine jacket proposed for a resolutely modern marriage.
In a society where the impression of being against the current, the designer wanted to carry more than just a collection but a movement of words, an ode to union where each piece carries the wish to defend a sustainable future and where we are one with the ecological and ethical values in which the designer believes. Marriage becomes a strong symbol where the garment takes on a minimalist look with clean but straightforward lines. Each fabric, whose material is designed to be combined with a certain colourful future, allows us to project ourselves towards more than just a single event.

Patou Saint Germain
Patou Saint GermainMore Info
Her firstname smells like the best fragrances and her name takes us to the artistsâ Paris.
Itâs because Patou Saint Germain has the exoticism of her ethnic background â she was born at Pointe-Ă -Pitre â and the creativity of the most famous fashion designers. She doesnât hesitate to try new and inspiring experiences.
In her shop, located at rue Africaine in Saint-Gilles (Brussels), Patou creates for women. She wants to highlight the best part of womanhood in each women.
The purpose of the choice of shapes and materials is to beautify the body while maintaining the practical and comfort characteristics.
Patou Saint Germain creates ready-made clothes (directly or tailor-made) like evening wears, wedding dressesâŠbut temporary creations, art pieces, and chocolate dresses too.
She likes to surprise and play with the different faces of her personality through her art.
Letâs start from the beginningâŠ
Patou Saint Germain was born in 1970 in Guadeloupe and, when sheâs 2 years old, comes in France with her parents.
She grows up in a family of six children. From a very young age, Patou creates clothes for her dolls.
At 15, she decides to become a fashion designer and passed the entrance exam of the school âEcole supĂ©rieure des Arts appliquĂ© DuperrĂ©â, the only public fashion school in Paris.
She dives into the fashion world like we can do with a religion.
During her studies, she works as a salesperson at Promod and wins the competition of young designers. Promod hires her immediately as a junior fashion designer.
Quickly propeled as a chief fashion designer, she travels a lot to âtypeâ her productsâŠUSA, Italy, JapanâŠ
The love brings her to Brussels where she works during one year for Caroline Biss.
In no time, she wants to stand on her own feet : she opens her shop and begins to draw, create and produce. Thatâs where Patou entertains her clients, offers ready-made clothes andâŠsome tea.
An other approach of the fashion world.
« I always wanted to revolutionize the fashion world. The relation between the women and the clothes is very important. Itâs the extension of her body and reflects her state of mind. When a women says that she hasnât anything to wear while the wardrobe is full, it means that sheâs a new person and wants other thing that she doesnât own. A few husbands understand it thus.
I want to support women and give them a « tool » for making them feel ease and seducing. I am at their service for their aesthetic appearance including my two centsâ worth. For example, I love the crossed heart structure because itâs enveloping and draws bodyâs curves. Itâs comfortable and feminine.»
From the story of the suit to the Japanese influence
« By studying the story of the suit, we realize that the unsaid was implicit via the suit. This one has been replacing the language in a time when the women did not have a say. »
Patou Saint Germain feels attracted by Japan, especially by Issey Miyake and her conceptual shapes with the search of simplicity that gives some strength.
« Iâm an African from Europe and, like many people that feel displaced, pursue a sort of quest for an identity. »
This search is found in her creations that involve Africa and Occident via shapes and materials. Ideas and models emerge from the discoveries of different materials, variation of silk, flax, mesh or African basin.
« I love the « Makeba »(*) style drawing and the Japanese lines like hide-and-seek jackets of kimonos. »
The worry of womanhood and originality of the style serve as a conductor line for the creation of the models.
The enhancement of the feminine body , the search of the appropriate garment and the availability are Patouâs work characteristics too.
(*) in reference to the South African singer Miriam Makeba
Original creations
We should step out of our comfortable zone and search other inspiring sources, try the unknown and show ourselves in other aspects.
Thatâs what Patou does when she creates amazing and audacious chocolate dresses with the chocolate maker Laurent Gerbaud for The Salon du Chocolat.
Or whether when she creates a dress with ropes and the top hat for the exhibition City Doll in Brussels. This one has been sold in an auction for a charitable work.
And tomorrow ?
« I want to continue showing that itâs possible to wear clothes differently to highlight the most beautiful part of the women. Her body is a treasury. It needs to be pampered and highlighted. What gives me the most pleasure ? Itâs seeing a womenâs face changing when she wears a dressâŠIt illuminates !

ABOUT FASHION DESIGNER LINA
.
Making people beautiful is my mission đ
When I see someone, I immediately think in dresses, fabrics, colors. I don’t know myself differently, always looking for beauty in everyone and everything. Many thanks to my little golden fingers, that I can fulfill this job in this way.
For more than 10 years I have specialized in making and designing exclusive tailor-made clothing. I was educated with a master’s degree in fashion design, pattern drawing and haute couture embroidery.
ABOUT CUSTOMIZATION
âCustomization is a process, an adventure. As a fashion designer, I listen and look, together we look for the right materials, fit and style. No ready-made dress code, but a unique piece that grows around you.
Customization has its price tag. But it has such beautiful and strong advantages: through customization, many more people can wear what they really dream of. Many pieces of clothing, whatever your figure, often don’t fit in ready-to-wear, even if you’d like to. Something that’s tailored is way more flattering anyway, whichever cut you prefer, simply because it fits. I often hear people say to me in the studio ‘I’ve dreamed of being long-dressed for so long, but I really didn’t think I had the figure for that’ or ‘I didn’t know that my figure looks so much better a proper cut’. Every body is so different and customization has so much to offer.
In the past years I have already drawn patterns and made and adapted designs for countless bodies. Accentuate what makes someone beautiful, envelop what feels vulnerable, look and listen. It has now become my specialization.
I don’t make collections, I like to work around a person. I mainly use the knowledge I gained with my master’s degree in fashion design to come up with original and unique designs that suit the customer, in addition to custom work.
A new vision on clothing, supportive in who we are, that’s what I’m going for.â lina
