Essense of Australia
Essense of Australia is a leading international bridal design house and wholesaler that creates and manufactures award-winning gowns for independent bridal retailers throughout the world under labels Stella York, Essense of Australia and Martina Liana, as well as private label collection Oxford Street and bridesmaid label Sorella Vita. The Essense journey began more than 20 years ago as a shared adventure that took place when Wayne and Martine Harris met - thus establishing the love affair with bridal that would go on to build the worldwide industry leader that is Essense of Australia. The union between Wayne’s talent for business and Martine’s experience in bridal design - brought together by their personal love story - has since fused two passions which changed the way our industry approaches and values the relationship between designers, retailers and brides.
