The Orlaya for Issy

01 022

Working with Ella May on my dress was such a joyful and fun experience in the lead-up to my wedding. After trying on several dresses, the moment I saw the Orlaya on Ella May’s website, I knew I had found exactly what I was searching for. Ella May was incredibly clever in transforming this dress into a bespoke piece for me.

We created two distinct looks. For the ceremony, Ella May sourced the most beautiful lace and adapted the original Orlaya design to craft something that felt truly unique. For the evening, the dress was completely transformed by removing the lace overlay and adding a beautifully designed sparkly waistband and straps, giving it more of a party look.

The entire experience was so special, and I wish I could do it all again!
