The Gotham Collection

Our 2021 Nori Ivy collection brings to you Art-Deco, glam and pure decadence. 
Nori Ivy Bridal is our very own collection, exclusive to Dotty, where we carefully curate and
bring together the most amazing and on trend wedding dresses. When selecting these
gowns, we have our brides at the forefront of every decision and absolutely love bringing
something different to Dotty.

This collection includes a bit more glitz and glam than our 2020 range, as well as some
insane and show stopping trains. If you are looking for the wow factor, then we’ve certainly
got you covered. We know you are going to fall in love with them like we have!
When deciding on this collection, we were feeling all sorts of dark, moody but luxe vibes. We
absolutely knew the shoot needed to be somewhere extravagant and grand – so where
better than the King of King Street – The Gotham Hotel, Manchester.

Gotham, a beautiful former bank property is the most amazing building, both outside and in.

With stunning interiors and dark, opulent suites, we knew it was perfect and exactly what we
wanted. (The photographers were cursing us though!)
There really are no other words to describe it than pure decadence.

We teamed up with our dream team (credits below) and headed to Gotham to shoot 25
dresses in one day! We are super lucky to have Gemma (our own in-house model and bridal
stylist) who absolutely wears each dress like a dream. Every time she changed dress we
were wowed all over again and had a new favourite dress! Honestly, we can’t even choose our faves now!!!

We shot in all areas of Gotham, from the Inner Sanctum Suite to Club Brass (the private
members’ rooftop bar) and even the lift area and the staircase! Everywhere is just gorgeous.
The inner sanctum suite was incredible and the ‘wonderwall’ screen on the wall was just
amazing – It’s a real show stopper of a room! We could have sat in it all day!

We had a great team effort and knew which dresses we wanted to shoot in each area and it
worked really well!
We hope you like the sneak peeks of the dresses – honestly, they are even more stunning in
real life.
As we cannot launch these gowns in true Dotty spirit – a fashion show event, we have
organised a virtual one instead! ‘Bride’s Night in with Nori Ivy!’ This time we teamed up with
the Manor House, Lindley (a local and stunning venue near to us) and created an amazing
fashion show for you.
If you can’t wait to see these gorgeous gowns, then this is the place for you! We have
created a full virtual catwalk of Gemma rocking the gowns again, with incredibly detailed
videos and images of each gown.
We wanted to make it something special as we know we can’t see friends and family and go
dress shopping at the minute. So get your girls together on zoom, order them a pamper/night
in package from us, and get voting on your favourite Nori Ivy gowns and make notes for
when you come in! We’ve included plenty of treats, products and discounts in the boxes, as
well as a little tipple for you all. This fashion show is the only launch of the full collection and
is available exclusively via a video link we will send to you and your bride squad.

Will you be a Nori Ivy Bride? We hope so.

Lots of love
Beth & Shan
