Catherine Rayner (designer)
Catherine Rayner was a British fashion designer specialising in wedding dresses.
Her designs in 1999 were admired for "classic elegance and romantic flair" and noted for their very fitted bodices and flattering cuts.[1] One of her gowns, in bead-embroidered satin, was chosen by Sandra Boler, the editor of Brides magazine, along with shoes by Emma Hope and a bridegroom's outfit by Tom Gilbey to represent 1995's Dress of the Year in the Fashion Museum, Bath's collection.[1][2] At the time, Boler described her choice as representing that year's nostalgic and period-costume-influenced trends.[3] Rayner's designs were retailed through her boutique and through London department stores such as Dickins & Jones.[3] Another of Rayner's designs, a pale pink strapless dress, is included in the Victoria and Albert Museum's fashion collection, and was featured on the poster for their major Wedding Dress exhibition in 2014.[4]
