I designed the Celeste wedding dress to feel dreamy, like a goddess in disguise in the 1930s ✨ The sparkling underdress is perfect for an evening party while the flowing overdress transforms the look for a more ethereal vibe. 

Made from pale ivory soft tulle that cascades in two layers from the shoulders, nipped in at the waist by a grosgrain ribbon belt.⁠ The back is probably one of my favourite features: a decadent layered necklace glistening with jewels. 

If you're looking for a wedding dress, designed for you and inspired by an art movement, or a period of history, or anything else, then get in touch 💜

Just leaving this here...
