nienke I bijtje

At their atelier in Utrecht, nienke | bijtje creates unique, modern wedding dresses fully customized to match each bride’s vision. Sustainability is at the heart of their design process, ensuring that every gown is not only stylish but also thoughtfully and more responsibly crafted.

What sets this atelier apart is the vision behind their creations. From the very first design session, Nienke and Bijtje consider how the wedding dress can be repurposed after the big day. Brides are welcome to return for a touch-up: the dress can be altered, shortened, or transformed into a piece that fits seamlessly into their everyday wardrobe.

Their idea of a ​“wedding dress” extends far beyond the traditional long gown. Whether you dream of a jumpsuit, a two-piece ensemble, a mini dress, or something entirely different, Nienke and Bijtje collaborate with you to design a look that is truly your own.

Even if you don’t plan to reuse your wedding attire, you can still make an eco-friendly choice. At nienke | bijtje, dresses can be crafted from natural and more sustainable materials like Tencel™, silk, linen, ramie, and wool. These biodegradable fabrics decompose naturally, leaving no harmful impact on the environment.

In addition to the atelier, there’s also a fabric shop where you can find a curated selection of fabrics for your own sewing projects. From luxurious textiles to more sustainable options, there’s something for everyone. Want to explore their fabric collection? Click here.
