October 13–15, 2026 | Starrett-Lehigh Building | New York, NY
NEW YORK, Sept. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Mélange de Blanc (https://www.melangedeblanc.com/) returns to New York Bridal Fashion Week this October with its most expansive market yet, bringing together more than 65 bridal designers and brands for three days of fashion, discovery, connection and collaboration at the Starrett-Lehigh Building in Chelsea.
Following its successful spring debut at Starrett-Lehigh, Mélange de Blanc returns to the iconic Chelsea destination for its October 13–15 market, bringing together an elevated roster of more than 65 returning favorites and new exhibitors across bridal accessories, Mother of the Bride, luxury couture and one-of-a-kind bridal design.
This season's programming will feature interactive activations, curated designer presentations, multi-designer runway opportunities and experiences designed to showcase the talent and creativity shaping the future of bridal fashion.
As part of its October programming, Mélange de Blanc is also partnering with The Wedding Masterclass to present Celebrate: The NYBFW Event for Couples, an intimate evening created specifically to bring couples into the New York Bridal Fashion Week experience.
Taking place on Wednesday, October 14th from 6:30–8:30pm, Celebrate will offer couples an opportunity to experience the energy of bridal fashion week beyond the traditional industry marketplace. The evening will center on love, fashion, connection and the modern wedding experience, bringing the world of bridal fashion directly to the people at the heart of it all — those preparing to say "I do."
"Celebrate is really an extension of what Mélange de Blanc has always been about — bringing fashion, community and meaningful connection together in a thoughtful and inviting way. We wanted to create an experience that gives couples a glimpse into the magic of New York Bridal Fashion Week while allowing them to connect with the designers and brands behind the gowns in a much more personal, experiential way," says Kimberly Marcoux, Co-Founder & Owner, Mélange de Blanc. "Our collaboration with The Wedding Masterclass allows us to open that conversation beyond the traditional industry audience and truly celebrate the people at the heart of bridal: the couples themselves."
New York Bridal Fashion Week is a key moment on the bridal fashion calendar, bringing designers, retailers, media and wedding professionals from all over the world together to discover what's next in bridal. Mélange de Blanc's October market adds to that industry conversation with an environment designed for discovery and collaboration, while Celebrate offers a new opportunity to connect bridal fashion with the couples who will ultimately wear it.
