Claddagh Wedding Dress

Elegant in its simplicity, the Claddagh Linen Dress is our first creation crafted from heavy linen with slight stretch, a new milestone for our 2026 bridal line. Designed to flatter, the structured bodice hugs the figure with the help of 5% lycra woven into the weighty white linen. A halter neckline meets a dramatic off-shoulder wrap, while flowing chiffon sleeves fall with ethereal ease from each arm, catching the wind like seafoam on the Atlantic shore.

A soft mid-rise waist gives way to a voluminous bias-cut skirt, allowing movement and grace with every step. The contrast between the strong linen body and the weightless sleeves strikes an elegant balance, grounded yet airy, classic yet fresh. An ideal gown for coastal ceremonies, handfasting rituals, or brides seeking something minimal with natural flair.

Our bridal gowns are crafted in standard sizes and thoughtfully designed to be easily altered by your local seamstress for a truly personal fit. We’re here to guide you in selecting the best size.

Each dress is crafted using repurposed deadstock fabrics, making it not only a conscious choice in style, but a true reflection of circular fashion values. Our gowns honour both the earth and the occasion, embodying the spirit of an ethical wedding.

Created in small, considered batches with just five pieces per size, many designs sell out quickly. If a dress speaks to your heart, we recommend placing your order without delay.

🧵This has been designed by the designer and founder of Celtic Fusion; Regina Tierney. Her inspiration comes from her home place in County Clare in the West of Ireland where the Celtic Fusion Studio is based. Celtic Fusion was designed to create a connection to nature through unique clothing. The designs are inspired by Celtic spirituality and ancient paganism - beliefs centered around the natural world and the cycle of life. So, naturally, sustainability and ethics are a top priority in the construction of the clothing you purchase. We hope to create a new standard for the impact of fashion with our choice of fabrics, construction processes, and positive work practices. Our production would not be possible without our skilled team in India where Irish designer Regina Tierney works for 3 months of each year over-seeing our entire work process and production in every element to create our ethical designs.

Handwash only in natural detergent. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, or bleach. If your gown needs alterations always work with a trusted seamstress.
