Where Sophistication &
Whimsy Meet

 
Amanda_James_Bridal_2454_Greta_flounce_gown_homepage_019.jpg

Custom-made gowns, capes & pantsuits handcrafted in Los Angeles.

 

This collection is all about femininity, confidence and luxurious fabrics — it’s where sophistication & whimsy meet. Buttery silks, ethereal embroideries and blissed out beadings are sourced from around the world. Refined tailoring and draping is integral to the design process, informing the silhouettes.

I’m a sucker for a good love story, and my ultimate hope is to bring an uncontainable love, joy and confidence out of women through their bridal ensembles. We all deserve to feel unabashedly gorgeous everyday, and especially on our wedding day.

 

The Greta Gown


 

A ball gown for the modern bride. Crafted from gardenia-inspired floral jacquard, lined with silk and layered with fine tulle, this gown is a showstopper. An off-the-shoulder fairytale flounce, corset bodice and shirred waistband give way to a full skirt and sweeping train.

The Bianca Corset & Angeline Skirt


 

Peachy-nude and hyper feminine. Sheer structure with mechanical stretch gives this corset a sculpted fit. Feathery motifs of point d’esprit appliqué float across the softly pleated skirt.

The Ava Cami & Giselle Skirt


 

Minimalist silk ensemble with a bit of sparkle. The double georgette fabric feels light as air. When draped, the skirt creates a soft a-line silhouette. Twirl and watch as yards of cloud-like silk float around you.

The Audrey Corset & Camilla Skirt


 

Modern day Grace Kelly. The Audrey’s sweetheart neckline and softly dipping back pair perfectly with the sweeping train of the Camilla skirt. Layers of strategically cut fabric hint at traditional ball gown fullness, yet keep the waist lean and fuss free.
