“[Your wedding day is] beyond a size or a type of woman — it’s really just about her,” Graham told WWD about the collaboration. “That’s why I’m so excited there are now sizes from 0 to 34.”
Graham helped design a collection of 16 styles, including a gown with lace sleeves, an off-the-shoulder silhouette, and a tuxedo — which was reportedly “a must” for the model — with prices ranging from $1,000 to $3,500. She also said that she built shapewear into the dresses so that curvy brides don’t need to worry about doubling up.
Though she’s been married to husband Justin Ervin for nine years, Graham reflected on her own bridal shopping struggles while envisioning the collection.

“I really didn’t get the option of what I truly wanted because I didn’t have the time or the luxury because of my size," Graham said about her wedding dress. (Photo: Pronovias)
She told WWD that she planned her wedding in just two months, revealing that she ended up buying a size 10 off-the-rack dress from a small boutique in Nebraska because they did not have an option for her size 14-16 physique. She said she had to add a panel sewn into the back of the bustier to make it fit.
“I really didn’t get the option of what I truly wanted because I didn’t have the time or the luxury because of my size. And to be completely honest — because of my budget,” Graham said.
