Gowns are unstructured and embody a modern, ethereal aesthetic using exquisite embroidery, delicate sequins and fine lace. Made by hand exclusively in London with slow fashion principles, brides can select a style from the existing collection; re-imagine an existing piece; or commission a completely bespoke dress.
