Alfred Angelo Bridal was an American wedding-gown manufacturer and retailer founded by Alfred Angelo and his wife, Edythe Piccione, in Philadelphia in the mid-1930s. Edythe designed dresses, while Alfred focused on manufacturing and business development. The company sold bridal and formal attire through its own stores and partner stores, and later operated from its headquarters in Delray Beach, Florida. Its range included bridal gowns, bridesmaid dresses, dresses for mothers of the bride and flower girls, prom and special-occasion dresses, and wedding accessories. In the 1980s, the founders’ children began managing the business. Collections and labels included Alfred Angelo, Sapphire, Modern Vintage, and Disney Fairy Tale. The company appeared on a 2013 episode of Undercover Boss. On July 13, 2017, it filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidation and immediately closed all its stores. Court administration continued the following year, with $20 million in claims from store customers; much inventory was lost to warehouse and shippers’ liens. In 2019, reported liabilities were $78 million, while a warehouse sale raised $245,000. The intellectual property of its labels was later bought by an online retailer based in Shanghai.
