Made with 20 to 30-something pieces, a season's capsule collection gives its wearer an air of undeniable style. Only the most incredibly lovely pieces will be picked for your mini closet – so getting ready is effortless. For the bride with an extended honeymoon planned, putting together a capsule collection ensures your time will be spent exploring amazing destinations, not questioning outfit choices.
BEGIN WITH A BIKINI
The last thing you’ll want to do after a leisurely ocean-front brunch on the beach is move from that spot. A chic swimsuit (we recommended bringing a maillot as well as bikinis depending on your honeymoon agenda—relaxation vs. exploration.
DON’T FORGET A LITTLE WHITE DRESS
One week you may be exploring the Amalfi Coast and the next, wine tasting in the Loire Valley. Your honeymoon will be full of picture perfect memories. A versatile little white dress (like these) will ensure you’re prepared for every occasion from a casual lunch at an outdoor café to a formal dinner at a beautiful restaurant.
FAVORITE FLATS & GO TO HEELS
Flats are our go-to travel and exploring favorites, but we also love knowing that we have a pair of stylish (and comfortable!) heels at the ready for special occasions. The chic, low bock heel is becoming one of our new favorite in-between styles! Select this lovely link to see a few pairs to inspire.) Depending upon the style, it can work with almost any outfit and still leave you able to take that walking tour of a new city.
EARRINGS AND NECKLACES AND BRACELETS, OH MY!
When we think of style and grace, Jackie and Audrey immediately come to mind. One thing we learned from their iconic fashion style is that the right jewelry can elevate any outfit. (We still dream about that stunning necklace in "Breakfast at Tiffany's.") To ensure your outfit is ready for its close up, pack a pair of drop earrings in your jewelry bag. The dazzling gems will make a statement at the best parties as well as give your look a touch of brilliance when you feel like wearing something understated.
PAIR YOUR SEPARATES
When you look great, confidence is undeniable. Select your favorite tops, skirts and jackets to take you from exploring quaint seaside towns to strolling along the Seine. Think a reinvented button down, a flowy skirt, a delicate camisole and a blazer to pair with any look. Separates, especially those in a complimentary color story, can provide endless options yet still be compact enough to leave plenty of room for all of those lovely items you’re sure to find to remind you of your amazing honeymoon.

The hemline has risen—intentionally.
The modern bridal mini has shifted from an after-party alternative to a ceremony-ready statement--the Little White Dress redefined. It has become city-hall appropriate, rehearsal-dinner definitive, and wedding-reception essential. Structured, abbreviated, and deliberate, it signals confidence rather than compromise. The short wedding dress was once a radical departure; today it is simply a sophisticated choice for a white rehearsal dinner dress, a wedding reception second look, and an after party wedding dress. The bridal mini dress honors the heritage of 1960s couture and makes an equally compelling case as the second look.
Minimal design meets architectural intention in the Josette, a white strapless rehearsal dress and minimal wedding dress designed for modern brides. This style guide explores how to style a civil ceremony dress with purpose — transforming clean structure into a refined statement for rehearsal dinners, wedding receptions, and intimate wedding receptions.
Who says the magic has to begin at “I do”? For today’s modern bride, every event leading up to the wedding is a moment worthy of sartorial celebration. From the engagement party to the rehearsal dinner and every toast in between, creating a beautiful and unique assortment of little white dresses is an opportunity for each bride to showcase her personal style. One of our favorite options is to choose a little white dress with a subtle amount of sparkle.
