“For Collection 1, I have been thinking about how brides are celebrating, about modern refinement and how to marry those ideas into an offering for today.

Our bride captures attention with distinction. She enchants with her wardrobe, embracing the notion of occasion with touches of fantasy. Floor-skimming hems dusted with petals, allusions to the past through Neo-Grecian draping, and tinges of opulence are wearable but also let us dream. There’s a sense of delicate strength, she’s ladylike but spirited. You can feel the joy that radiates in her life through the clothes she wears.

There’s lots of texture, lots of detail. The palette is ethereal and romantic, with nods to bygone-era embellishment in gold and silver. Silhouettes are soft with corsetry taking cues from the past but brought into today with a more fluid finish. Throughout, there is a sense of the inherent beauty of the wedding dress—suggestions of the past with proposals for the future.

It’s a collection of moments—to be looked at, remembered, admired—a magical dream realized. And it’s brought together into a bridal collection that I believe create lasting, new memories in one’s life.”

The Freya

Hand draped Italian tulles and French laces construct the gown, designed with a romantically modern, detachable cape. Detailed with our signature in-house developed floral embroideries, scattered effortlessly across the gown and cape.

The Aurora

The inspiration behind this gown began with the vision of a modern day goddess, exuding a quiet, yet radiant presence. Kwon designed the Aurora gown to effortlessly slip over the body. Bygone-era embellishments dust the chiffon with vibrancy, while it’s all held together by hand-braided soutache straps.

The Athena Jumpsuit

Inspired by Kwon’s admiration of Greek mythology, powerful women, and astrology, the piece marries fluidity with form. Stretch silk chiffons are lined with silk charmeuse for a soft feel and maximum movement. French Lace overlay on the bodice and 3D feathered and floral embroideries accent the bodice with distinction.

The Hera

Fantasy becomes reality. A soft, corseted bodice cascades into hundreds of yards of tulle bringing elements of the past into today. Hand-made 3D floral embroideries delicately sprinkle across the sides of the bodice, while softly trickling down to the waistline and skirt.

Ethereal, yet regal, this is the piece for the modern bride who is unapologetically feminine and transforms the walk down the aisle into the beginning of their real life fairy tale.

The Gaia

A grand moment demands a dress with grandeur. Silk taffeta lined with silk crepe de chine provide the foundation for an incredibly light, yet intricately embellished dress. Corsetry is reworked and reimagined for today’s bride with a more fluid finish, punctuated by a built-in cape. 3D floral embroidery appear inside and out for a delicate accent for only the most discerning brides. Live out your romantic story and feel exquisitely elegant.
