To say we are pleased as punch about Karen Willis Holmes’ sparkling new collection, Elope, would be a wild understatement. We are, in all honesty, doing excited little grooves here at HM headquarters, beyond stoked that one of our fave bridal brands ever has stuck it to tradition. A continuation of Karen Willis Holmes’ commitment to style, confidence and poise, the collection represents a new chapter for the brand, one rife with possibility.
Playful yet sophisticated, the eight-piece collection is a contemporary brides fantasy. Consisting of shorts, jackets, pants, camis and jumpsuits, the collection promises to satisfy ‘anti-brides’ the world over. Whilst sophisticated silhouettes are the bread and butter of the collection, romantic fabrics get a solid look in with silk satin and gilded lace strewn throughout.
Designed with city hall elopements in mind, the separates and gowns in the Elope collection also make for a bold reception look. Our personal fave? Who can go past the Sherry Dress, complete with feather detail and a whole lotta leg! Don’t even get us started on the Dani Shorts and Charlie Jacket, a match made in heaven.
Whilst all the short numbers are perfect for showing off your groovy-as-heck wedding day heels, KWH has you covered if you fancy a bit more length. Take the Sage Gown, a full-length silky sleek gown, oozing Old Hollywood glamour. True to form, KWH have ensured details are on point with feather tassels that delicately tie at the back.
Separates start from $590 and extend to the decadent ostrich feather strewn Annabelle Gown coming in at a sweet $5290. Head on over here to be one of the first to try these lush pieces IRL. With boutiques in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and New York there are no excuses!
Now, scroll down for the rest of this divine array of gowns and separates…
