14 Stunning New Couture Wedding Dresses by Galia Lahav

Galia Lahav Fancy White 2020 Wedding Dress Collection – Margaret 2

Unique, powerful, strong, and yes – fancy – Galia Lahav‘s latest couture wedding dress collection celebrates you, the one-in-a-million bride.

Taking inspiration from ‘fancy white diamonds’ the designers at Galia Lahav have created a collection of gowns that shine with brilliance amongst a crowd of modern wedding dress designers. How exactly? The bridal fashion house continuously pushes the boundaries of what it means to be a bride – and correctly reflects modern women of today.

Always unafraid to forget ‘the rules’ of contemporary wedding dress design, the fashion house gifts the strong & independent women completely unique design details that make a statement.

In Fancy White, we find powerful silhouettes, sharp lines & floor-length tuxedo jackets (Anna we love you!) We applaud soft, floral embellished ballgowns featuring deep, dramatic necklines and sexy thigh-high slits. Sweet oversized bows attach dramatic trains to otherwise cool-bride, red-carpet-ready gowns.

In recent discussion with a bridal stylist & real bride friend of mine, we lamented about our inner-conflict of loving our own wedding dresses while still unsure how we feel being ‘depicted as brides’ being strong independent businesswomen. Galia Lahav gets this.

Fancy White offers brides the chance not only to feel like a beautiful bride but shine like a diamond in powerful silhouettes and unlikely bridal details. Aretha – a dramatic ballgown – features sharplined bodice and subtle lavender hue. Margaret – a sweetheart strapless gown – features avant-garde bows & the sexiest show of leg.

But perhaps the best example of this is the face of Galia Lahav’s new collection, transgender model Valentina Sampaio, wearing her namesake gown. Sampaio, an incredibly cool long sleeve bodysuit with sheer skirt, says I’m a brave gal unafraid to be myself.

Galia Lahav’s commitment to giving brides, and models, a voice and powerful stance will not go unnoticed.

From Galia Lahav

Like light bouncing off of a brilliant diamond, our Fall 2020 bridal collection was inspired by the beauty that is reflected from within. This collection celebrates a woman’s essence and individuality. It’s about reflecting on who she is and connecting to what really matters to her, including what she wants for her wedding day.

Fancy white diamonds – opaque white diamonds that resemble the dreaminess of a bridal gown’s tulle fabric – play a part in creating this collection. The array of flowy, soft silhouettes, such as A-line, mermaid, and ballgown shapes have been modified to be voluminous, yet soft, fluid, and modern.

Each layer of the airy gowns tell a story, much like each layer of a woman’s personality tells her story. Intricate lace peeks through light-as-air tulle, silk, or organza embellished by reflective finishes like beads and rhinestones. And subtle hues of ivory, blush, and lavender are played up with silver embroidery, casting a romantic and ethereal aura around the bride.

And to debut the new line of gowns, transgender model Valentina Sampaio shines as the face of the couture collection. Admired for her confidence in revealing her true self, she’s a perfect representation of this collection for the woman who knows she is unique inside and out.

“All is beautiful and unceasing, all is music and reason, and all, like diamond, is carbon first, then light.”
