David Koma Wedding Dresses: The White Gowns Brides Actually Buy, for the Ceremony, the Reception and the After-Party
David Koma Wedding Dresses: The White Gowns Brides Actually Buy, for the Ceremony, the Reception and the After-Party
David Koma does not make bridal, and brides buy it anyway, for the reception, the after-party, the registry office, the second dress and, more and more, the dress itself. The white and ivory pieces in stock at Luxury Shoes , 26 of them from $1,940 to $7,010, are built for the evening, which is exactly why they work: a Koma white gown is lined, structured and embellished by hand, and it will not be mistaken for a bridal-store dress. This guide sorts the white dresses by wedding moment and answers the “David Koma brautkleider” searches honestly.
Key facts
- 26 white and ivory dresses in stock, $1,940 to $7,010, median $3,890: gowns, midis and minis in satin, cady, lace and knit.
- The house has no bridal line; these are ready-to-wear evening pieces in white, ivory and ecru, made in the United Kingdom, lined and, on the corset gowns, boned.
- For the ceremony: the Lace Rose Embroidered Gown In White, the Corset Top And Crystal Leaf Gown, the Crystal Pendant Halterneck Gown, the Cactus Dahlia Detail Halter Gown. For the reception: the Crystal Rose Halter Midi Dress, the 3D Lace Flower Satin Midi Dress In White. For the after-party: the Crystal Leaf And Halter Mini Dress, the Draped Sleeve Mini Sequin Dress In White.
- Fit: usual UK size, the larger of two on a corset, and allow six weeks for a hem and any alteration; the embroidery cannot be moved.
- Care: dry clean by a specialist after the day; the satin marks with oils and the crystal must not be pressed.
For the ceremony
Four gowns do the job of a wedding dress without pretending to be one. The Lace Rose Embroidered Gown In White at $4,290 is white satin with lace roses, the closest thing the house makes to bridal and the one most brides choose. The Corset Top And Crystal Leaf Gown at $5,180 is a boned white corset with crystal leaves on a cady skirt, for a bride who wants structure and shine rather than lace. The Crystal Pendant Halterneck Gown at $5,250 is a white satin halter with one crystal pendant, the plainest and the most modern. The Cactus Dahlia Detail Halter Gown at $7,010 is the couture option, a white halter gown with the cactus dahlia at the hip. None has a train; a Koma gown is cut to the floor and stops.
For the reception and the second dress
The midis are the reception dresses. The Crystal Rose Halter Midi Dress at $4,880, white cady with a crystal rose at the halter, is the piece brides change into to dance; the 3D Lace Flower Satin Midi Dress In White at $4,000 is the daytime-wedding version with 3D lace flowers. For a registry office, a city-hall wedding, the Puff Top Detail Satin Midi Dress and the Lace Rose And Puff Skirt Detail Midi Dress are short enough to walk in and formal enough to be photographed.
For the after-party
The white minis. The Crystal Leaf And Halter Mini Dress at $4,660, white cady with crystal leaves, is the after-party dress of the year and the one guests also buy, so a bride should say so if she wants it to herself. The Draped Sleeve Mini Sequin Dress In White, the Feather Trim Mini Dress In White and the Puff Top Detail Sequin Mini Dress are the alternatives, and the Pearl Embellished Knit Halter Gown at $1,940, a white rib halter gown with pearls, is the honeymoon dress.

This is how a modern femme fatale looks in my eyes for this winter.”
