Sleeves

In the winter, it tends to be a bit cooler. The perfect excuse to add more flair to your dress. This means you can also choose a gown with those beautiful sleeves. Lace, sparkles, or transparent: anything is possible! A sleeve on your dress is an accent that adds extra allure to your wedding dress. Surprise everyone with your winter wedding dress featuring those stunning sleeves.

Veil

Wonderfully traditional, and in winter, a perfect wedding accessory. A veil made of multiple layers of lace, dazzling in various shades of white and cream, trimmed with vintage patterns... transforms you into the fairy-tale princess who is about to marry the man of her dreams. Magically beautiful!

Bolero

Have you fallen head over heels for a strapless wedding dress? Then a 'bolero' offers the perfect solution. A bolero is a very short jacket with sleeves that brides wear to cover their shoulders and arms. It can be entirely custom-made, providing you with immense choice. Will you choose lace, transparent pieces, or the same fabric as your dress? A (faux) fur bolero is also a wonderful statement piece for winter. Beautiful and cozy for your outdoor movements.

Lace

A wedding dress with lace is always gorgeous, no matter the season. For your winter wedding dress, lace truly adds to the emotional warmth of your wedding. Additionally, there are countless options. Choose between motifs that are knotted or connected with continuous thread, finished with linen or jewelry, featuring geometric patterns, or invoking nature with a variety of leaves, clovers, vines, and roses. Naturally, you can also opt for winter stars and snowflakes to complete the wintery feeling. Also perfect for a winter wedding: the rosaline perlé technique. It's a fine, very nuanced lace with a consistent main motif.

Glitters

Are you a sparkly bride? Glitters truly shine in winter! Moreover, there are so many ways to use them. You can opt for a subtle shimmer across your entire wedding dress or choose stunning stones on the bodice of your dress. Glitters perfectly complement a winter wedding, as they immediately evoke thoughts of ice crystals and snow. Thanks to the glitters, you'll sparkle both literally and figuratively in your winter gown!
