Bridgerton is back with its third season on Netflix – and that means more yearning, more gossip and, most importantly, more gowns.

The Regency-era period drama, which follows the love lives of the Bridgerton family, was a lockdown sensation in its first season back in 2020. Not only were we swept off our feet by the steamy romance between Phoebe Dynevor’s Daphne and Regé-Jean Page’s Simon, we were also instantly enamoured with Ellen Mirojnick’s breathtaking costumes.

Unlike period dramas of the past that stuck rigidly to historical accuracy, Bridgerton forged new sartorial ground, creating a fantastical world in which modern fashion and fabrics blended seamlessly with historic silhouettes and styles.
