In our new FW’26 issue, we take you to the south of France and to Renée and Jan’s wedding, which was a celebration of love, friendship and style. We also sit down with Louis Abel founder Jimmy Loutfi for an in-depth interview about how his own wedding rings marked the start of a new chapter in fine jewellery, and look ahead to New York Bridal Fashion Week for the silhouettes, details and ideas that will set the tone for the coming season.

Bohemian dress: The guide to the perfect boho look for your wedding
Choosing a wedding dress is one of the best moments for a bride-to-be. Getting to try on dresses you’ve dreamt of since you were little is a dream come true.
Do you dream of a laid-back wedding with a barefoot vibe and a touch of lace? A bohemian dress is the ultimate choice for the bride seeking a romantic, free-spirited and timeless style.
Whether you’re planning a beach wedding or a barn reception, we’ll help you find the perfect bohemian dress to suit both your body shape and your personality.
What characterises a bohemian dress?
The bohemian style, or ‘boho-chic’, is all about freedom and natural beauty. Unlike more traditional, stiff wedding dresses, a bohemian dress focuses on soft fabrics that move with the body. Think of details such as:
- Graphic lace: Often coarser and more pronounced than classic French lace.
- Long sleeves: Wide bell sleeves or loose puff sleeves are typical of the style.
- Natural fabrics: Chiffon, tulle and soft cotton that create an airy feel.
Find a bohemian dress that suits your figure
Just because the style is relaxed doesn’t mean the fit is unimportant. Here’s how to choose the right bohemian dress based on your figure:
- A-line: Perfect for those who want to emphasise the waist whilst allowing room over the hips. An A-line bohemian dress with a lace bodice is a timeless favourite.
- Empire waist: If you want a truly free-spirited look, choose a style where the skirt starts just below the bust. This creates an ethereal and romantic silhouette.
- Fitted lace: For the bride who wants to show off her curves whilst retaining that boho vibe, a figure-hugging style in stretchy lace works a treat.
Accessories to enhance your boho look
To really let your bohemian dress shine, styling is key.
Jewellery: Go for a layered look with delicate necklaces or large, bohemian earrings.
Hair accessories: A soft floral crown made of real flowers or a gold or silver headband creates just the right look.
Footwear: Many people choose to skip high heels with a bohemian dress. Instead, go for dainty sandals, boots or – why not – go barefoot on the beach?
