Courte Collection

Showing on Floor 7

Courte Collection is a sustainable Australian fashion brand founded in 2021 by industry veterans Anastasia Tushuizen and Tania Stokes. This is Courte Collection's debut wholesale season.

Renowned in their home country as the destination for short wedding and cocktail dresses that can be worn after the wedding, Courte provide high-quality, stylish and eco-friendly dresses for modern brides with a conscience. Courte is proud to produce 100% of its collection locally in Melbourne, utilising sustainable materials and supporting local industry.

Courte Collection’s Jeux de Nuit collection is an ode to modern, minimalist beauty. Seeking to de-construct traditional bridal dressing, this season focuses on the two piece with a range of separates which can be layered over dresses, worn together and worn again after the wedding. Mini skirts, tailored shorts and palazzo pants can be styled with jackets and tops, each style offered in the brand’s core fabrications and finished with a selection of accessories, reflecting the label’s ethos of versatility and its bride’s individual style. 

This season, alongside the clean aesthetic and sleek tailoring of Courte’s signature silhouettes are curved seams and drop waists, whilst elegant full length gowns feature panels of contrasting fabrics and best-selling styles are updated in new fabrics. 

A commitment to responsible design remains at the heart of the brand. With a pledge to remove all polyester fibres from the business from 2025, this season sees the introduction of innovative materials replacing traditional bridal stalwarts. Alongside the finest 100% silk, Courte introduces Ecovero Lenzing Viscose Satin which is created using at least 50% less water and emitting at least 50% less CO2 compared to the generic viscose fibres so popular in the Industry. A number of styles are crafted from Lyocell Canvas Twill by Tencel - a beautiful, weighty cloth made from controlled or certified sourced natural raw material wood with production processes which minimize environmental impact. 

For the high fashion bride who demands impeccable tailoring, the finest sustainable fabrics and modern style options with the versatility to be worn long after they’ve said ‘I do’, Courte Collection answers her call.
