The New York-based fashion house of Cucculelli Shaheen is the brainchild of married couple Anna Rose Shaheen and Anthony Cucculelli. Before setting out on their own, the pair worked for many iconic brands including Emilio Pucci, Oscar de la Renta, Burberry, Calvin Klein, Yigal Azrouel, and Roberto Cavalli. They say their inspiration comes from classical music and art, mythology, and their home town of New York City.
What first caught my eye was the fact that between their silhouettes and their embellishments, CS’s gowns feel like a modern version of what one would wear to a turn of the 20th century soiree. I love how they play with opacity and embroidery. Both their evening wear and their bridal designs are lush and gorgeous and make me long to see them in person.
You can follow Cucculelli Shaheen on their fashion website, on their bridal website, and on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook.

The embroidery, beadwork and other surface textures are exquisite.

I am mildly obsessed. I usually wear solids, but this stuff is making me long for something with embroidery.

I am the same way with mainly wearing solids but I have been gradually introducing some pattern into my life over the years. The thing with embroidery and bead work is it usually requires handwashing or dry cleaning and those are a nope from me.

I am willing to spend extra on dry cleaning when it’s something special. I mostly reserve that category for impactful jackets. I have a couple of knee-length brocade jackets, a few hand-painted jackets, and some I beaded/rhinestoned myself that always get compliments when I wear them to special occasions.
