Christine Carlson, sustainable wedding dress designer

Meet Christine Carlson

Since childhood, I've been enamored by the world of fashion, particularly the glamourous costumes featured in Hitchcock's timeless classics. As a teenager in Minnesota, I spent countless hours reconstructing vintage dresses, developing a passion that grew stronger with time.

I showed up in New York City for my Parsons School of Design college interview with samples of my work, and I have never looked back as my career led me through the showrooms of many of the industry’s most well-known formal and bridal designers, including Vera Wang, Arnold Scaasi, and Jenny Packham.

Motivated by the environmental consciousness of my Gen Z daughters, the concept for my very own business, Maybelle, was born. I am passionate about creating breathtaking pieces that make my clients look and feel their best and prioritize environmental sustainability. I work out of a beautiful, light-filled atelier on the upper floor of a historic 1920s building overlooking Memorial Park in quaint Maplewood, NJ.

Elegance Beyond Time

I'm dedicated to crafting exquisite, one-of-a-kind wedding dresses with a focus on eco-consciousness. My designs are handmade with care, using sustainable materials and techniques to create stunning pieces that capture your unique vision.

Having worked with distinguished designers like Vera Wang, Jenny Packham, and Zac Posen, I understand the pressure of finding the perfect dress. So I'd like to guide you through the process with ease so that you can feel confident and beautiful on your special day.

When I'm not designing dresses, I indulge in my other passions, such as cooking, exploring art shows, and taking long walks with my family. These simple pleasures bring balance to my life and allow me to recharge my creative batteries.

Speaking of family, my husband and two beautiful daughters are the light of my life. Their energy and enthusiasm inspire me to pursue my dreams and make a difference. I am so grateful for their love and support.
