La Vie en Rosa French Lace

Introducing The Rosa French lace Collection

Inspired by the romantic, vintage rosettes found on our Rosette French lace, and reimagined with a freshly alluring, and soft, modern feel.

This lush and luminous new collection is defined by the Chantilly lace roses that beautifully decorate your body in clever places, and creates the most luxurious and feminine feel.

We designed this collection for the curious, passionate girl dreaming of the perfect wedding: a day where every detail expresses an exceptional happiness, born from her own perfect romance. This modern woman is also an old-fashioned girl; with a weakness for vintage style.

Each piece is perfect for Spring and Summer brides and her maids, brides-to-be, and honeymoon lounging. This angelic range was made to wrap you in soft, exquisite French leavers lace and pure silk accents in a pale shade of ivory.

Delicate features include scalloped Chantilly lace edges found along the hem and sleeves of the Rosa kimono and crop top.

To complete the look, we created matching French lace panties in a flattering bikini cut.

Made of ultra soft French leavers lace with a soft stretch waist for a perfect fit to seamlessly go from day to nighttime wear. Allover rose motifs are framed in delicate scalloped edges to create a lovely look.

Crafted in the loveliest palette of off-white, dusty pink and black for your big day and beyond - the Rosa collection is meant for the bride that wants to celebrate herself, her style, and her love!

Real Wedding: Something Old & Something New

Vintage-inspired glamour and Old World charm - what more could we ask for!

Our real bride Paige took her New Orleans wedding to a new level of elegance, and back to another time.

Dressed in a stunning ensemble reminiscent of the turn of the century, Paige walked down the aisle of the breathtaking Marigny Opera House. Her beautiful dress by Sarah Seven glowed against the moody color palette of garnet and plum, while gold details that glittered the banquet hall heightened all the glitz!

Our friend and ever-talented photographer Lauren Kinsey captured all the beauty.

Paige's Juliet cap veil we made with lace from her mother's antique wedding gown was a real showstopper

We love working one-on-one with our brides, and when Paige got in touch with us to design her wedding veil, we couldn't wait to get started! Bringing the past to life while creating something new is a design challenge we've been dreaming of.

We designed a custom Juliet silk tulle cap veil with an applique lace train, using the most gorgeous antique French lace cut from her mother's wedding gown, which was more than 25 years old. Since it was stored for so long, the wear and tear of the delicate lace was more than just beginning to show. We carefully analyzed the lace on the garment and pondered how to bring the fragile fabric back to its original state.

The old lace developed a yellowish patina of age that we restored by professionally washing. Then we painstakingly removed each lace piece from the gown and restored the motifs by trimming each one by hand.

Finally we were ready for the fun part: designing the veil!

Already familiar with the lace motifs from the restoring process, we spent the next days draping, arranging, and pinning the lace to find the best way to showcase its antique beauty.

Each piece of lace was hand-cut and sewn to silk tulle, creating a truly one-of-a-kind piece.

It was an incredible experience to design this wedding veil for Paige. We're simply delighted she was able to wear this heirloom piece that's been passed down in the family, to her very own wedding.

It means so much to us that we were able to make something so dear to her heart a part of her big day.

Classic Summer Provence Wedding featured on Style me pretty

The end of Summer is just around the corner, although it's a little harder to tell here in Florida, and with today's real wedding feature on Style Me Pretty, we think it's the perfect time to reflect on the past few months, and anticipate what's coming up for us in the next year!

This gorgeous Provence wedding has us dreaming about the wonderful summer we had. All beautifully captured by Nadia Meli Photography, these images have us swooning over every detail from Florence and Anthony's charming, rustic wedding. The color palette they chose is so lovely, we just love how the light pinks and powder blues were used! From the groom's bold tux, to the soft bouquets and centerpieces, all the colors blended so beautifully to create a fresh and organic atmosphere.

Florence wore our soft Elizabeth getting ready robe, made from cotton lace. She looked so serene while getting her makeup done before slipping into her Reem Acra gown. Her bridesmaids also beamed with delight and looked so pretty in their baby blue tulle bridesmaids skirts! What a fun twist on traditional bridesmaid attire!

This wedding is beyond breathtaking. The perfect combination of classic elegance, with a carefree lightheartedness. It was such a pleasure creating something special for Florence's special day!

We'll be dreaming of the long summer days that are finally coming to an end...
