The THEIA Fall 2017 Collection Is A Tropical Island Dream
The THEIA Fall 2017 wedding collection presents dresses that are as fresh as a sea breeze.
Don O’Neill’s past few wedding collections have been unconventional, to say the least. This season, he steps away from barely-there dresses inspired by wisps of smoke in an 1920s opium den and futuristic silver gowns to give us a refreshing take on the beach wedding dress. Blurring the lines between ready-to-wear and bridal, the collection speaks to the modern bride who is looking to free herself from rigid wedding traditions.

Inspired by the destination bride and her longing for shimmering sands and bright blue lagoon waters, the THEIA Fall 2017 collection embraces the casual and carefree nature of the beach bride, while speaking to her bohemian spirit with off-shoulder silhouettes, elegantly flowing fishtail skirts, and mix and match options.
