Stella York: Extravagant Lace + Boho Flair

Lace takes on a whole new look this season! Asymmetrical floral laces float elegantly across the collarbone, while vintage-inspired scrolling patterns envelop illusion sleeves, shoulders and stunning back details—creating extravagant looks from head to toe. Boho-inspired cotton lace patterns also create linear structures that flatter the figure and bring out that young, wild and free side!

Martina Liana: Feminine + Bold

Reinterpreting classic femininity for the modern bride, narrowed plunges and effortless shaping offer a new spin on timeless romance. Softly gathered fabrics in flowing skirts and drapey, off-shoulder straps create a sense of soft movement and rich texture—while layered organza and laces hint at a fine sheerness.
