An emotive editorial created by souls who love deeply, create freely and express passionately. This is the first in a series of editorial creations by MODE Weddings for Alba & Stardust, a designer who creates minimalist and textural bridal wear for the modern bride. We start our journey with Siren and Whistles.
“Ode is a tribute to our worlds most precious resource…water. This collection is a celebration of water in all her forms and representations.” – Alba & Stardust
“Curation of editorials should be inspirational and transport the reader to another dimension. The goal is to dream, to feel, to be inspired. Each element tells a story. Each ripple emotes, each layer of fabric speaks and every placement is strategic in its beauty. I hope you can hear it as loud as I do.” – Lee Landsberg, MODE Weddings.
SIREN
The epitome of a water goddess, as her cascading train and asymmetrical pleats mimic the waves of the ocean. The stitch detailing on the cups reminiscent of the magical idea of mermaids that love below the deep.
whistles
Inspired by the sounds of the wind moving through the water. The froth created by the play between wind and water. Layer upon layer of sea foam moved and painted by the wind. The structured, pleated bodice is a nod to the delicate ridges found on shells washed onto shore after a storm.
