When a color is so unexpected it is like your eyes give your brain a little jolt and get your attention fully on the delicate harmony: a juicy yet elegant lime green.
Barely visible from the front, when worn with the lace top for the ceremony.
More visible in the back, where the bow bursts forth and flutters down the back.
Protagonist when the top comes off, to reveal the delicate lines of the bodice, and the sash transforms into a shawl, a cape. Wings.

Turquoise waves painted on pure silk.
Snippets of a process involving countless steps,
fabric sculpted around a body,
hands turning ideas to tangible form.
Movement breathing the silks back to waves.

Structured simplicity at its best. And the blue matched the bride’s eyes. #realbride #bridetobe #larimeloom #colorweddingdress #somethingblue #blueweddingdress
A watercolor kaleidoscope. Pigment on pure silk.
Front and back V necklines are gorgeous, but typically dress-makers resort to the trick of inserting nude tulle panels in the neckline for support, which might not be very obvious in photos but are VERY evident in person.
To avoid that, for this custom gown we built a stretch Lycra bodysuit bottom, hidden under the skirt and sewn to the bodice at the waist seam, so that the vertical tension holds the garment in position perfectly, offers perfect bust support, and all range of movement is guaranteed.

Perfect fit is a never ending quest.
The making of a Mida skirt in watery blues for the mother of a groom.
Each strip individually dyed, each one carefully placed to compose the perfect random balance.
There is a reason I only work with silk.
So impalpable, slightly understated, an imperceptible sheen.. yet so intensely, breathtakingly alive when inhabited with movement.
A custom Tilia, with one of the most pure, saturated, fiery, juicy tones of red/orange I have ever had a chance to dye.
No train, no frills, a clean rounded neckline, silk straps, a little lace around the waist. Letting color and movement take the center stage.

The Helianthus dress changes look based on how you feel, like the Sunflower it is named after changes direction based on where the sun is.
A dress I will never get enough of.

We buy white silk: each gown is a blank canvas.
Just know, white is A color, not THE color.

Ivy vines climbing over emerald and white. A modular gown that offers multiple ways to wear depending on the moment of the day: a base dress, a sheer silk shirt, a leafy lace over skirt, a pale minty satin sash, a train that can be bustled for dancing.

Sometimes, it is bittersweet to say goodbye to a dress and to the human it was made for. This spun silver number is one that I will remember.
A unique neckline, plunging vertically to frame the neck and face, cut of hand-dyed silk satin, smooth and weightless to look at, yet fully structured throughout.
Transparent tulle panels intersect the full panels for a delicious play in textures and depth.
The skirt is layer upon layer of transparent silk organza, in various tones of white, silver, grey and black.
A cascade of crisp white vines climb organically up the side and back, with a delicious natural vitality, each leaf and tendril individually placed to compliment the lines of the dress and of the body within it.
Sometimes, it can be completely, fully, freely, utterly, deliciously romantic and it can be oh so playful and fun!
With a faint medieval princess atmosphere, this custom gown features a smooth silk satin bodice with a striking corset back.
Lace vines and blossoms grow across the bodice asymmetrically adding to the fairytale atmosphere. The A-line organza and chiffon skirt has a long train, which bustles deliciously for dancing.
Removable organza sleeves and a soft silk tulle veil finish up the look and offer for a variety of different looks in one.
