A number of fashion retailers fail to carry size-inclusive styles and this is especially true when it comes to plus-size wedding dresses. Lace & Liberty is on a mission to change this with the Lace & Liberty x APW capsule collection.
The collection includes a range of romantic styles, including off-the-shoulder silhouettes, halter neckline dresses and even dramatic add-ons like The Tyler Cape. The plus-size wedding dresses in the capsule collection range from $1,900 to $2,750. As Lace & Liberty got its start when founder Danielle Wen (a graduate of MIT and Rent The Runway’s Project Entrepreneur incubator program) had her own struggles finding the perfect dress, each of these options is made to measure.
The direct-to-consumer wedding dress brand recently opened a new showroom in Los Angeles that updates the traditional wedding dress shopping experience with inclusive sizing, personalization and technology.
