Perfect Imperfection:

Ophelia’s Memoirs celebrates the artistry and perfect imperfection of hand-beading on sensual silks and chiffon. In a world of fast fashion and machine-made pieces. Bo & Luca have stayed true to their roots.  Lovingly hand-dying each piece in loose-leaf White tea.  Then hand-beading the gowns using the ancient Indian art of Tambour.  We are amazed by the amount of detail they put into their gowns.   

Shannon Pittman, Bo & Luca’s Creative Director, together with her team delved into newfound creative realms. With a more alluring and sensual approach to the bohemian style which first landed her brand on the bridal map.

Delicately hand-beaded gowns:

Their delicately hand-beaded gowns in this collection are lent a touch of whimsy and alluring refinement.  With silhouettes that softly fall over the body.  Easy to wear and non-constricting. Forget volume or layers of tulle.  These gowns make a statement with each hand-beaded design. Woven over diaphanous, sheer silks and delicate fabrics. 

A strong 70’s influence is evident with billowy, voluminous sleeves, pussy-bow necklines, and tasseled trimmings. Daringly low open backs.  Balanced out by long sleeves and demure Victoriana necklines to keep the looks elegant and refined.
