If bridal campaigns had personalities, this one would be the friend who shows up overdressed in the best way and still makes it look effortless.
Gabbriette, the 28 year old model and musician known for her razor sharp aesthetic and unapologetic cool factor, is the face of Jimmy Choo’s latest bridal campaign, aptly titled “Rules of Engagement.” And yes, the timing is impeccable. The bride to be is set to marry The 1975 frontman Matty Healy this year, which makes the entire campaign feel less like fashion and more like a very stylish preview of what modern brides actually want.
Shot by photographer and director Mark Kean and styled by Vanessa Coyle, the campaign is playful, slightly irreverent, and refreshingly honest. It is bridal through a fashion lens, not a fairytale filter.

At the heart of the campaign is Jimmy Choo’s 2026 Bridal Collection, blended with signature house styles that feel equal parts glamorous and wearable. Gabbriette moves through the video like she is hosting a masterclass in modern engagement etiquette, unveiling her seven so called “Rules of Engagement.”
They are witty. They are self aware. They are surprisingly accurate.
Rule number one sets the tone: “Act like you’re surprised, even if you know the proposal’s coming.”

It is the kind of advice that acknowledges the reality of modern relationships. Brides often know. Pinterest boards do not appear by accident. Still, the moment deserves theatre.
Then comes the line that will live rent free in every group chat:
“Your ring should bling. And if it doesn’t — upgrade.”
Spoken with a knowing smile, it feels less like a demand and more like a reminder that personal taste evolves. Jewelry, like love, can grow with you.

One of the strongest themes in the campaign is abundance, not excess but intention.
“One pair of shoes is never enough,” Gabbriette declares.
She breaks it down with precision: one for the pre party, one for the wedding, the afterparty, and one for the after afterparty.
Different moments call for different silhouettes. Ceremony heels are not built for midnight dance floors. Bridal wardrobes today are multi chapter stories, and Jimmy Choo clearly understands that.
She follows with another gem: “This is a celebration, not a performance.”
In an era where weddings can feel like social media productions, that line lands. The campaign subtly encourages brides to dress for joy, not for scrutiny.
Her fifth rule shifts the spotlight to accessories: “Bags don’t have to be functional, just fun.”
Tiny crystal clutches and statement minis take center stage. They are not designed to carry your life. They are designed to carry your moment.


Perhaps the most relatable rule addresses the planning dynamic between couples.
“Let your fiancé think that they’re helping. They pick the music, you pick everything else. Democracy!”
Delivered with a laugh, it captures the delicate choreography of wedding decision making. It is playful but grounded in truth. The modern wedding is collaborative, but someone usually has the vision board.
The campaign closes with the most important rule of all:
“Remember, this is about love — and looking hot — but mainly about love.”
It is cheeky, yes. But it also reflects a generation that values romance and self expression equally.

Gabbriette and Matty Healy confirmed their engagement on June 11, 2024, after attending Charli xcx’s Brat show in Brooklyn. The bride to be shared photos of her striking black diamond engagement ring, framed by pavé diamonds around both the stone and the band.
Her caption read, “MARRYING THE 1975 IS VERY BRAT,” a wink to her friend Charli and the pop culture moment surrounding the show.
The following day, Matty’s mother, actress Denise Welch, confirmed the news on the UK talk show Loose Women, sharing that she was thrilled for her son and described Gabbriette as everything she could wish for in a daughter in law.
Since then, the couple has kept details of their upcoming wedding relatively private. A year into their engagement, Gabbriette admitted during a red carpet appearance in Los Angeles that planning might take time, joking that she is not the most organized when it comes to logistics. Still, she assured fans that the wedding bells are somewhere in the future.
What makes this Jimmy Choo moment special is not just the footwear. It is the attitude.
Gabbriette does not present bridal as delicate or overly polished. She presents it as powerful, stylish, and slightly rebellious. The message is clear. You can honor tradition and still make it entirely your own.
Her “Rules of Engagement” feel less like commandments and more like permission slips. Permission to upgrade. Permission to change shoes. Permission to prioritize fun. Permission to remember that at the center of it all is love.
And perhaps that is the real takeaway.
As Gabbriette steps into her bridal era with Jimmy Choo, she is redefining what it means to be a modern bride. Confident. A little chaotic. Fully aware that weddings are both emotional milestones and fashion moments.
If this campaign is any indication, her walk down the aisle will be anything but predictable.
