🌟Aspirational brides of every era🌟
🗣️ What the NYC it-girls (of every decade) wore to their weddings 🏙️ 💍🤍

🎀1920s: Clara Bow
One of the most revolutionary movie stars of the silent film era & also down-to-earth idol. Born in Brooklyn, in the most brutal poverty that was known at the time, she sent her photograph to a ‘fame and fortune’ magazine competition, and won top prize. Soon, she was working day and night until she became a superstar. In 1925 alone, she made 15 films.

💰1930s: Brenda Frazier
After her debut, the actress became dubbed as “the #1 advertisement for just about everything.”

👖1940s: Gloria Vanderbilt
Started a hugely successful line of denim that began as the uniform for student demonstrators

🎞️1950s: Greta Garbo
Retired from the screen at the age of 35 after acting in 28 films

🫦1960s: Edie Sedgwick
Became a “celebutante” for her style and her associations with counterculture artist figures of the 1960s

✊🏽1970s: Bianca Jagger
Former actress and Nicaraguan social and human rights advocate, goodwill ambassador, council member of The Amazon Charitable Trust, who even started her own Human Rights Foundation

🧥1980s: Tina Chow
Was famed on the International Best Dressed List in 1985 and cited by fashion magazines for her unique style, routinely pairing inexpensive items with high fashion pieces and mixing feminine and masculine styles simultaneously.

❤️‍🔥1990s: Chloë Sevigny
Often hailed as one of the best-dressed women in the world, she’s known for being unapologetically herself and never compromising her style or values for mainstream appeal. Her eclectic, daring style often mixes high fashion with vintage finds, setting trends rather than following them.

🖼️ 2000s: Kate Moss:
A timeless fashion icon who redefined beauty standards with her effortless style and enduring influence across fashion, music, and art. Despite controversy and challenges, she consistently bounced back stronger, and built an illustrious career spanning decades, inspiring designers, setting global trends, and expanding her brand into a powerful force of creativity and resilience.

Check out our feature in New York Daily Trends! Janice Lee, a fashion designer and creative director, is the founder of the bridal fashion brand 'Beyond the Ceremony.' She is determined to challenge the outdated stereotypes and expectations surrounding brides and their wedding dresses. Janice believes that brides should not feel confined to cookie-cutter princess dresses or traditional bridal trousseau but should celebrate their special day in a way that empowers them and makes them feel beautiful.
Known for her innate sense of style and attention to detail, Janice designs exquisite couture-like ensembles that prioritize supreme craftsmanship while considering sustainability and reusability. Her brand, Beyond the Ceremony, is dedicated to creating bridal outfits that truly represent the modern woman of the 21st century, breaking away from the boring and traditional norms.
Starting as a one-woman show, Janice worked tirelessly to build her business, handling every aspect of the production process and managing other design jobs to fund her venture. After months and years of hard work, her brand gained prominence, allowing her to work with artisans, contractors, production houses, mentors, and memorable clients.
What sets Janice's business apart is her commitment to customizing wedding dresses not just once, but twice. After the big day, she transforms the dress into a different form, giving her clients the opportunity to relive the magical moment in their lives and wear their unique piece again. This approach saves brides from spending thousands of dollars on a dress they'll wear for only a few hours and eliminates the storage burden typically associated with traditional wedding gowns.
Janice Lee's passion for empowering brides through her innovative designs and her dedication to sustainability and reusability make her a remarkable figure in the bridal fashion industry, turning dreams into reality for countless brides.

Why are women’s pockets always smaller than men’s?

Because women used to not be able to own any property.

We’ve come a long ways——- & given our current state of the world, we still have a long ways to go. But to start, here’s to designing you the gift of pockets.

I designed this with pockets in a bridal gown because I understand how frustrating it is to want to carry my phone around to take pictures of those I love……yet I’m wearing a dress (that didn’t come with pockets) because “I wanted to look cute.” Giving you both fashion & function with this one.

To offer you the option to choose for what type of celebration suits you best: eloping, microwedding, city hall, or a grand ball—— The Kaitlyn is available in 3 lengths:
“Little White Dress”
“Reception Dress”
“Ceremony Dress”

Send back to have dyed into a more versatile garment for afterwards——so you can keep adding onto your most special piece that collects your best memories.

Dye-back offer included in price.
