One silver lining to these past years - we’ve perfected our resourcefulness and creative thinking skills. Because love will always prevail and so will your wedding day — even if you do need to make a few tweaks, like pivoting to an intimate daytime ceremony and reception. (But remember, as the pre-times, champagne-drenched and sparklers-filled drunch extravaganzas proved, brunch is actually the most festive meal for a memorable and Instagram-ready event.)
Because no matter the guest count or time of day, it’s your moment to celebrate your life partner and exciting new stage ahead — and wear your dream wedding dress, no exceptions made. Crafted with luxurious fabrics, meticulous details and high fashion design, Galia Lahav’s Pret-a-Porter offers a collection of haute couture-level gowns that speak to all styles, moods and locales, especially daytime nuptials.
The classic slip dress enjoys an alluring update with bias-cut detail on luxe satin, delicate double straps and an exquisite silver clasp atop the sultry open back. The silhouette remains timeless not only for its elegance, but also its versatility. Based on the weather, the wedding location and your mood, a slip allows for chic — and endless — layering options, be it a double-breasted blazer, a cape, a furry wrap or even over-the-elbow gloves.
Hold court over your nuptials in a regally romantic off-the-shoulder and puff-sleeve silhouette, which would look especially stunning against a garden or beach backdrop. (Add in a light breeze for effect.) Plus, the billowing sleeves and open décolletage offer a seasonless feel to wear the free-flowing crepe gown any time of the year.
Sporty meets spicy with this high-neck gown in a body-skimming stretch crepe. The halter-style neckline brings an air of playfulness, while the twist-detail at the waistline and high front-slit radiate sultry elegance. Plus, the dress lets you show off your personal style and excellent taste in accessories, especially your shoes. Like a lacy statement heel, maybe?
On your wedding day, star in your own romantic period piece with a Regency Era-inspired empire waist and Deco-reminiscent draping on this beautiful bias-cut gown. The low-plunge back and V-neckline allow for inspired play with a range of accessories, from a delicate pendant to a dazzling backdrop necklace, to fully express your own individuality.
