Micro Wedding Styles at Zo & Willow
The Covid-19 Pandemic has sadly forced many brides to postpone their weddings. While many couples have delayed and rescheduled, others have embraced intimate ceremonies, smaller guest lists, changing venues and staying local. Adapting to the tone of more intimate celebrations has also influenced the bridal wear that many of our brides are choosing as the vision of their dress has changed or they now prefer more than one look as they will do a small ceremony this year and a second party in the future once bigger wedding celebrations can take place again. At the moment, the demand for non-traditional wedding dresses has also grown as smaller ceremonies have given brides the confidence to get more creative with fashion. Brides are looking for more relaxed, uber chic wedding styles that they can wear again and again.
At Zo & Willow, we have many bridal styles that work perfectly for small micro weddings. Halfpenny London is one of our beloved designers who designs for the bride of today. With her fashion forward selection of bridal separates you can find a simple yet beautiful wedding dress for a civil ceremony or change & elevate your wedding dress with her mix and match options ranging from modest and traditional to modern and fun party styles. Kate Halfpenny’s new collection Out of This World evolved through an unplanned period of self-reflection caused by the pandemic as the designer was forced to pause for a moment. The designers love for clean shapes and luxurious fabrics brings a new approach to reality and beyond.
The Iris Slip dress by Halfpenny London is her all time classic - minimalistic, elegant, pure. It is gorgeous on its own. A figure hugging soft silky fabric will make you feel comfortable all day long - from your ceremony to dancing until late at night. If you want to customize the look, combine it with several options of overskirts, tops, sleeves, bows and accessories.
Mix and Match the Iris Slip dress with the Ariel Bow in order to achieve this soft and feminine classic look at your Micro Wedding
Making a great team as well: The Iris Slip Dress and the Blaze Shrug. The soft tulle shrug is a beautiful addition to the slip dress, adding texture and romance. One of Zo & Willows’ favourite minimalistic wedding style & a perfect style for your civil wedding.
Another Zo & Willow favourite is the Cosmic Dress from Halfpenny London’s Out of this World Collection. Style it with sumptuous layers - Pumpous additions like the Sun Sleeves and the Moon Skirt create a three in one look. Just right for a postponed wedding: Have your civil wedding, traditional ceremony and reception look all in one.
Another classic and elegant favourite - Make a dramatic entrance at the ceremony with the Christian overskirt & and show your modern side later that day by removing the skirt and rocking the clean but edgy Oliver Dress. The corset top will make you comfortable and secure in this strapless gown. Book your appointment at Zo & Willow to try on the Halfpenny London Collection.
