One of the key points of difference for Grace Loves Lace (GLL) wedding dresses is their effortlessness and lightness - no excess or heavy fabrics - meaning women are liberated and free to move and dance. Appealing to the rising trend of destination elopements, I produced this content shoot to feature key pieces from the new collection on a real-life couple enjoying a European summer.
Services July 2017 - March 2020
The Runaways editorial is centred around two lovers in the heat of a once-in-a-lifetime kind of love which begs, “Why wait?”. Two plane tickets later, they set out for the coastline of Positano to elope under the Italian summer sun.
On this side of paradise, all roads lead to la dolce vita. With hints of limoncello behind their smiles, real life love birds Tom and Dominique dance the city’s ancient streets where laughter flows like wine. The air, thick with adventure, tousled her hair and breathed life into the floaty European fabrics, captured by Elisabeth Willis.
For the destination bride, comfort is everything. Our edit of fluid burnout silks, metallic champagne thread work and lightweight stretch rose laces are perfect for the destination elopement wedding. Unbound by monotony and unfazed by tradition, this is romance re-imagined; Luxury you can dance in.
