Deep in the heart of Tuscany is the Villa di Geggiano. Its walls are decorated with hand-painted frescos and gorgeous windows, antique furnishings from the 18th-century fill the rooms. It was this villa that inspired the latest collection from Emily Riggs: Nouveau Renaissance. We’ve got an *exclusive* first look at the photos by Corbin Gurkin!!
Emily designed intricately detailed dresses using only haute couture fabrics, such as hand beaded French laces and Italian embroidered tulles. She tells us I made all the gowns to go with the Italian frescos and the overall mood in the villa. The Italian villa is absolutely astonishing and provided the perfect backdrop for these meticulous creations! All the gowns + veils were created in Emily’s Portland Oregon atelier and are available for purchase on her website.
Italy awaits…

Maison Yeya’s 2017 bridal collection, by Egyptian-French designer Yasmin Yeya, presents a feminine bouquet of exquisitely structured lace Wedding Dresses. The interplay of softness and strength works beautifully in this collection, and while it is entitled “Les Refugiées D’amour” (Refugees of Love), the gowns speak to the confident bride who knows exactly what her heart desires. With love as her refuge, she’s free to glide in the sumptuous creations that include magnificent ball gowns with regal trains, sheaths with sweeping overskirts, and a mermaid gown that features intriguing illusion panels.
Elements is the most recent collection of couture designs for Fall 2017 by artist, Blanka Matragi. Blanka used her concern for the environment and attention to the world around us, as inspiration for this 5 part ensemble. She spoke to the combination of the four elements of nature and how she allowed them to vitalize her creative juices and infuse their energy into this collection. She was inspired by the sometimes soothing yet alternating ferocity of water, the intricate stability of earth, the dreamy skies of sunsets and the way that the air and atmosphere beckon us to journey out into the unknown. Add to these the radiance of heat and passion of fire and her closeness to working with it in her glass workshops and then Love reveres and preserves them all and is the inspiration for the delicate bridal styles that complete this fabulous couture collection.
This entire collection took 10 months to complete with at times 12 people involved in the finishing of these intricate designs; embroiderers, and tailors as well as photographers and digital producers. The collection is divided into five parts, Water, Air, Earth and Fire, each dedicated to one of the basic elements. The fifth group, Love, includes wedding fashions.
The latest hair trends call for natural charm. The goal is to achieve a tender, dreamy, dazzling effect in a natural way, and let your feminine beauty shine through. On your wedding day, the aisle is your personal version of a catwalk, and with all attention on you, you want to totally own it by looking and feeling gorgeous! Our collection below is here to inspire you and present your effortless beauty!
